Material:
Crafted from 50% yak and 50% merino. Made in China using Tibetan yak wool.
Yak is 30% warmer than sheep wool. Yak wool is hollow; air pockets in the fiber provide insulation in extreme cold and cool in heat. It can absorb and retain over a third of its weight in moisture and still feel dry to the touch.
Yaks are naturally sustainable, low carbon emission animals. We firmly believe that sustainability is an essential responsibility for every business. By directly supporting preservation of the traditional and sustainable herding practices of Tibet, we ensure economic and social support for local communities.
Our yak is combined with Australian non mulesing merino wool. Ultrasoft, lightweight and of exceptional quality.
Care:
Wool garments are repellent to bacterial growth and have amazing self-cleaning properties. Air frequently and you will find they smell fresh for many wears. Hand wash(but do not soak) and spread to dry flat away from a direct heat source.
Wool tends to pill (where small bobbles appear on the surface of the garment after a few wears) which is a natural and unavoidable process. This can generally be removed by hand. Or you can use a pilling comb, with due care not to snag stitches while using.
