Kid Mohair
Mohair is a long, lustrous and warm fiber sheared from the Angora Goat. Once used to make garments for kings, it is considered a luxury fiber like silk and cashmere, and often used to enhance wool-blends. The precious fiber is the lightest animal fiber and is all the finer the younger the animal (kid, young goat, adult).
Warm
The long fibers trap a lot of air between them, making the fabric very insulating.
Strong
Nicknamed the “diamond fiber”, it is one of the most valuable and strongest fibers.
RMS Certified
The Responsible Mohair Standard aims to improve the welfare of goats and the land they graze on.
Mulberry Silk
Silk is a very special natural fiber that is obtained from the unwound cocoon of the silk moth. Often referred to as "the queen of fabrics", it is the only natural filament fiber and has been used for luxurious fabrics for over 5000 years.
Luxurious
Soft, lustrous, shiny, smooth and drapes with a graceful flow.
Strength
One of the strongest natural fibers - stronger than cotton or linen.
Snow White
Only the mulberry silk worm produces pure white silk of the highest quality.
Performance
Wrinkle resistant and absorbs and releases moisture quickly.
