Introducing the Cashmere Company Turtleneck Sweater for men. This soft knitted sweater features a slim fit design and comes in a classic black color. Made in Italy, it showcases the expertise of Cashmere Company in using cashmere, a natural textile fiber obtained from the underfleece of the hyrcus goat. The cashmere goat`s habitat in the mountainous regions of Asia has led to the development of a dense down that is ten times warmer and lighter than sheep wool, making it perfect for protecting against both low and high temperatures. The cashmere is collected through manual combing during the moulting season in spring. The highest quality cashmere is composed of 2 twisted threads and has a fiber section between 14 and 18 microns. The purity and quality of the yarn contribute to the high cost of cashmere, which is around 165 euros per kg. To make a cardigan, the shorn fleece of at least 3 goats is required. This ensures that our cashmere sweaters are of excellent quality and free from impure fibers. For maintenance, we recommend hand washing in warm water with a mild detergent or using a delicate program for wool garments in the washing machine. After washing, spin at low speeds and dry flat. Avoid hanging the sweater. If needed, you can use a soft brush or a special comb to remove any excess fiber. Please note that pilling may occur in the early stages of use, but this is a natural consequence and not a sign of lesser quality. With proper care, your Cashmere Company Turtleneck Sweater will maintain its softness and quality for years to come. Fabric details: 30% Cashmere 70% Wool.
