About Cashmere

Cashmere comes from the soft undercoat of goats bred to produce the wool. It takes more than two goats to make a single two-ply sweater. This labor-intensive process typically involves combing and sorting the hair by hand. These factors contribute to the relatively low global production rate of cashmere—approximately 6,500 metric tons of pure cashmere annually instead of 2 million metric tons of sheep’s wool.

But not all cashmere is equally luxe: The texture, color, and length of the fibers affect manufacturing and pricing. Quality also depends on the region in which the wool is collected. In Inner Mongolia, for instance, the winters are harsh, and the goats have a more meager diet, which produces the more delicate hair seen in the highest quality garments.

Clothing is the connection of express and convey ourselves what we are and where we form. Clothe is the connection which connected past and future, different culture, religion, even our whole life.

My story of our Cashmere 

I come from Inner Mongolian, my family business cashmere factory when I was so young. We only choose the finest for our cashmere between 15-18 microns and 28-32mm long. So our products can be more durable while staying airy light.

Cashmere is so essential in my life, I have lots of cashmere products, but the most valuable is a grey v-neck cashmere sweater. It belongs to my father; he got it when he about 20 years old, now it belongs to me. Although we have worn this one for 30 years, the cuff is already open,but it still so soft and warm. I need this cashmere sweater in every coldest winter. It, for me, means warmth, family, and hometown.

My family believes the origin of the best cashmere products comes from In Inner Mongolian. We believe when you touch cashmere products, you will also spread a wonderful precious memory with them.
