Our Fibres.

Committed to delivering 100% natural, biodegradable & environmentally responsible knitwear.

OUR FIBRE

Using only biodegradable & environmentally sustainable fibres.

Over the last 12 months we have travelled the globe in search of natural & ethically sustainable fibres with the intention of changing the way knitwear is consumed globally. Together we can lead the ‘slow fashion’ revolution, working towards more responsible fibre choices across the entire fashion industry.

PURE CASHMERE

Sustainably sourced Mongolian cashmere.

Our cashmere is sourced ethically from Inner Mongolia, where the world's finest cashmere is produced. All our cashmere goats are reared in happy & healthy environments.

We only use premium grade, long filament cashmere and do not use Cashmere that exceeds 15 microns (in other words, extremely fine!) Our yarns are double twisted, to ensure a consistent quality is achieved. Cashmere fleece is gathered from the fine underbelly fibre grown by the cashmere goat during winter,and then collected in the summer months when the goat naturally sheds its winter coat to stay cool.

Happy healthy goats = premium quality, long-filament cashmere.

ETHICAL MERINO

Non-mulesed Merino wool.

We choose only the finest natural fibres ensuring maximum softness, handle and resistance to pilling. Striving to introduce new fibres that will challenge the fast fashion market and give our customers greater choice for making mindful purchasing decisions.

MF 2020 launches our latest ethical line of ‘RWS Ethical Merino’ non-mulesed Merino wool collection made 100% from cruelty free non-museled merino.

ECO-FURINO COLLECTION
