What does LODEN mean in Scrabble?
noun
A thick, waterproof woollen cloth, traditionally a dull greenish-grey colour, or that colour itself.
Loden is a heavy, densely woven woollen cloth first made by shepherds in the Alpine regions of Austria and Bavaria, where it was treated with natural grease to keep out wind and rain. The cloth traditionally came in a muted greenish-grey shade that eventually took the same name, so loden can describe either the fabric or the colour associated with it. Coats, capes, and jackets made from loden became a recognisable feature of Alpine and hunting dress, prized for warmth rather than fashion. The word loden is now used in the wider clothing trade whenever a fabric or garment imitates this traditional Tyrolean style and colour.
How LODEN is used
Used mainly in fashion and textile contexts to name the fabric or its characteristic muted green shade.
