Why You Should Wear Pure Natural Fibres - Cashmere

You may not realise the importance or appreciate the luxurious benefits of pure fibres like cashmere, wool, and silk—until you do. Maybe it's when you notice how easily your body reacts to shifting temperatures, when your skin craves gentle, breathable fabrics, or when you learn about the environmental toll of synthetic materials. Made from non-renewable resources like fossil fuels, synthetics contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, pollution, and waste. They release toxic pollutants into the air, water, and soil, and because they’re non-biodegradable, they often end up in landfills or incinerators.

Now let's discover the luxurious benefits of Cashmere to our body and environment.

1. Cashmere

Cashmere is known for being expensive, exclusive, and comfortable. As one of the softest natural fibres, it comes from the undercoat of goats. Our cashmere mainly comes from China - Inner Mongolia, the world's largest producer of raw and softest cashmere in commercially sustainable amounts. The Benefits of Wearing Cashmere:

• Ultra Soft & Comfort: Cashmere is one of the softest natural fibers, providing  exceptional soft and fine comfort against your skin.
• Warm & Temperature-regulating: Cashmere is about eight times warmer than wool. The great British weather is no match for the fabulous insulating properties of cashmere! It comes as no surprise that this natural fibre is great at keeping you warm. Despite being warmer than wool by weight, cashmere doesn’t overheat you easily. It's also hygroscopic, so it can help keep you cool in the summer and warm in the winter. 
• Breathable: Cashmere is quite breathable and worn very lightly. 
• Durable: Cashmere is naturally elastic, so it retains its shape well and won't stretch or warp. Look after your cashmere, and it will look after you for a lifetime to come! Quality cashmere is an investment into your long-term wardrobe, outliving many other materials when handled with the proper care.
• Sustainable: Cashmere wool is both a sustainable and renewable fibre, with the wool gently combed from the goats during the time of year when the animals naturally start to shed their coat. The wool then naturally begins to grow back as the temperatures drop and the cycle continues! This allows us to offer real guilt-free, sustainable and ethical luxury to our customers.
