Supersoft lambswool
Experience the unparalleled softness of our premium lambswool, crafted from luxurious 17.5-micron fibers for an exceptionally smooth touch and all-day comfort. Its ultra-soft handle gives every garment a refined, luxurious finish.
Sourced from the first shearing of young lambs, typically between 7 and 11 months old, this virgin wool is pure, durable, and naturally resilient. Garments made from lambswool maintain their shape wear after wear, while becoming even softer over time—a perfect combination of lasting comfort and quality.
Lambswool is naturally hypoallergenic, resistant to dust mites, and ideal for those with asthma or allergies. Beyond comfort, it’s a sustainable choice: fully recyclable, compostable, and biodegradable, making it an eco-friendly addition to your wardrobe.
