Shaatnez
Shatnez (or Sh'atnez/Shaatnez) (שעטנז) is the Jewish law derived from the Torah that prohibits the wearing of a garment containing both interwoven wool and linen; any such fabric is referred to in Judaism as shatnez. The relevant parts of the Torah (Leviticus 19:19 and Deuteronomy 22:5, 22:9-11) prohibit the combining of various fabrics in one garment, the interbreeding of different species of animals, and the planting together of different kinds of seeds; in Deuteronomy the rules against mixing also include a prohibition against transvestitism.
