Our cashmere

Sustainable Mongolian Cashmere

Cashmere is the fine underdown a goat grows for winter and sheds in spring. Each goat gives only a few hundred grams a year, which is why real cashmere has always been rare.

Finer from Mongolian winters

Our cashmere comes from goats on the Mongolian steppe, where winters are long and hard. The colder the winter, the finer and longer the down, and long, fine fibers give the knit its soft feel.

Warmth without weight

Cashmere is warmer than sheep's wool at a fraction of the weight. It holds a layer of still air close to the body, so a light sweater does the work of a heavy one.

Fine gauge, close drape

We knit it at a fine gauge with a smooth face and a close drape, and we state the composition on every piece.

Yes. Tap Find my fit beside the sizes. It asks a few quick questions, starting with the size you normally wear, then suggests a size for this piece.

Where we have it, Fit and sizing above lists the size worn in the photos, so you can compare it with your own frame.

Not if it is cared for well. Wool shrinks from heat and the tumble dryer, so wash it cool, by hand or on a wool cycle, and dry it flat.

Too big

Some friends say nice color but for me it too big, the medium is loose. I think I need small. Zip is good, but I will return it.

5 Stars

I was so pleased with my first vest that I purchased a second one in grey. The medium fits as before and the quality is consistent. I expect to wear both through the season.
