A material duo that inspires
Bonnie and Clyde. Mickey and Minnie. Carrie and Mr. Big. There are duos that simply belong together. Because they complement each other perfectly. And because their individual qualities become even more apparent as a couple. Cashmere and cotton are such a unique pairing. Garments made from this blend, like our cashmere-cotton T-shirts and long-sleeved shirts, combine the positive qualities of both raw materials. And there are plenty of them.
Durable, heat-retaining, breathable, sustainable — all of these characteristics apply to cashmere. And then there’s that incomparable feel. Soft. Warm. Comfortable. Like a long-awaited hug. This cozy fabric now meets tough and uncomplicated cotton in our shirts. Its best qualities: robust, durable, easy to care for. And: It’s also extremely versatile, adapting instantly to its respective material partner in crime.
The result: a wonderfully soft, luxurious, yet extremely durable and versatile pair you’ll love. We use the optimal blend of 85% natural cotton and 15% premium cashmere.
Sustainable cashmere-cotton shirts for women and men
Cashmere meets cotton. And that also means: goat meets bush. This combination is therefore hard to beat in terms of naturalness. While the cashmere yarn in our cotton cashmere T-shirts and long-sleeved shirts is actually the undercoat of goats, cotton is nothing other than the seed hair of a mallow plant, which ripes in capsules. Obtaining both raw materials requires not only the right expertise but also patience. We have both. And both are extremely important to us.
We even go one step further when it comes to sustainability and only use premium cashmere and organic cotton for our WARM ME products. 100%. So nothing artificial. Just pure authenticity. Shaped by the region where the goats and mallows are at home.
Intense nuances, gentle coloring
Our design? Minimalistic. Our colors? Intense. Long-lasting. And: sustainable. Because we also care about the environment when dyeing our cotton, we’ve become nano-dyers. Nano-dyeing means no salt, just a closed dyeing cycle. This not only reduces rework but also minimizes water consumption and waste. For us, it’s the only way to go. What’s more, our cashmere yarns are dyed by hand. And only then are they processed further. Step by step.
All of this adds up to radiant shades that remain vibrant. Year after year. And make each of of our cashmere-cotton T-shirts and long-sleeved shirts unique. A one-of-a-kind item with character.
Slow production, in the heart of Europe
Made in the middle of nowhere. Under precarious conditions. By machine. Fast. Unfortunately, this is not uncommon in the textile industry. But for us, it’s an absolute no-go. While we work with a small manufacturer in Nepal for our pure cashmere pieces, relying on old hand-knitting machines and traditional know-how, our cashmere-cotton shirts and other items are created in northern Portugal. Right in the heart of Europe. And thus, not so far from our home base in Austria. There, too, we work with a local workshop. And with people who share our passion for our WARM ME pieces.
Our cashmere-cotton T-shirts and long-sleeved shirts therefore embody our desire to slow down and our love for everything authentic, profound, and lasting, far removed from excess and throwaway culture, in every fiber. And we believe you can feel and see it. Wanna try?
