BUFFALO WOOL PROVIDES THE BEST PROTECTION FROM THE ELEMENTS
Theresa and Ron Miskin have been raising American plains bison for more than 30 years.
The Buffalo Wool Company started as an extra income source with a desire to add more value to the bison industry. They create bison wool apparel products, from hats, socks to bags and more, all with the fur of the majestic animals that once roamed coast to coast, from Alaska to Mexico City.

The Miskins are passionate about bringing you the best quality bison products.
“We’ve spent the last 10 years developing a supply chain that brings together small mills, local designers and large ranches,” Miskin said. “We believe that this chain, working together, can preserve one of America's great symbols, while bolstering the U.S. economy by focusing on American-made products.”
After years of over-harvest, the bison only made a comeback due to the commercial ranching industry. Many ranchers have dedicated land and resources to the bison — helping numbers from around 100-1,000 grow to more than 700,000 today.
“We are big supporters of bison ranchers all across this country; we learned from using it ourselves how luxurious, warm, and durable Bison fiber truly is,” Miskin said.
In recent years, the Miskins purchased a part of the historic Goodnight Ranch. Cecil, Ron’s dad, is responsible for bringing the bison back to the ranch after almost 100 years. They also work with almost 200 ranches across the country to source their products.
The Buffalo Wool Co. is a historic name for a company originally founded in 1821 by the Hudson Bay Co. in Red River, Manitoba. That company only lasted about five years before bankruptcy. Since the name wasn’t being used, the Miskins adopted it in 2011.
Professional hunter Craig Boddington is a believer in the Buffalo Wool Company socks. "I wore them every day during Kansas rifle season, both hunting and guiding (I did wash them occasionally),” he said. “Extremely comfortable, very warm including when damp, amazingly washable. Awesome socks!”
