Composition & Sustainability:
This cardigan contains 70% Super Kid Mohair that is RMS certified (Responsible Mohair Standard), ensuring that the Mohair comes from farms with a progressive approach to managing their land, and from goats that have been treated responsibly. This type of Mohair is the most luxurious due to it being obtained at the first shearing of a young goat, who have fine and extremely soft hair. It also contains 30% Mulberry silk that is naturally grown and pesticide-free. All our labels are made from 100% organic cotton, which will biodegradable in a landfill environment.
Benefits:
Mohair has natural antibacterial traits that are ideal for anyone with delicate skin, it will combat unwanted odours and efficiently wicks moisture away from the body, ensuring lasting freshness and warmth due to its insulating properties. Mohair is stronger than steel so its durability surpasses that of other fibres, guaranteeing longevity and allowing you to treasure this jumper for years to come. Mulberry silk is a naturally hypoallergenic and antibacterial fibre that is also the strongest and softest silk in the world.
