Recycled Cashmere
Recycled Cashmere
Origin: China
Certificates: Oeko-Tex
- Originates from goats in Kashmir, India.
- Cashmere goats live in the wild with the herders.
- When goats are grazing, they pull grass out by the root, which stops it from being able to regenerate.
- We use recycled cashmere, as the effects of cashmere goats on the land from herding and cashmere production are too harsh.
- Using recycled cashmere allows us to reduce methane emissions from goats, and reduce land use and water pollution from washing cashmere.
- Recycled cashmere uses less energy, dye, and water than virgin cashmere. It also reduces the amount of fabric going into landfill and keeps materials in circulation for longer.
- It is a durable and resilient fabric that resists wrinkles and maintains shape well. The fabric is also warmer than wool.
