Our Cashmere

STYLE & SUBSTANCE

N.Peal cashmere wool is truly special because we have total control of the process, from the source to the finished luxury garment you see in our stores. We can trace our cashmere right back to the individual herders who tend their goats on the vast steppes of Mongolia. We understand the regional variation in quality and set strict quality standards for the colour, fineness and length of the fibre we collect. Knowledgeable about every process of production, we take care every step of the way with scouring, spinning, and finishing.

THE SOURCE

Cashmere is grown by Capra Hircus goats and the coats producing the best cashmere in the world are located in Inner Mongolia.

This is because the herders have learned the best ways to care for their animals over many generations, but also because their area of Mongolia experiences extremely harsh winters, leading the goats to grow a longer and finer winter coat - making them the perfect cashmere source.

WHY MONGOLIA?

Temperatures in Mongolia can reach -40 degrees Celsius. In order the survive the goat must grow its long winter coat. When the weather begins to warm up in the spring, the goat will shed its winter cashmere coat and it’s then that the herders comb the animals to harvest the cashmere.

We use only the longest and finest fibres for our knitwear and it's only through controlling the entire process that we can guarantee the highest quality luxury cashmere.
