ANTOON uses fine and soft wool that is sourced from the Cashmere goat. The goat originates from the Cashmere region in the Himalayan mountains.
This type of wool is certified to The Good Cashmere Standard® (GCS). This is an independent standard for sustainable cashmere, developed by the Aid by Trade Foundation (AbTF), which aims to improve the welfare of cashmere goats, the lives of farmers and farming communities and the environment.
The cashmere is derived from the goat's undercoat. This undercoat is separated from the tougher outer coat, washed and then spun into threads. A protective layer of air is created between the curly hairs. This layer of air provides excellent insulation.
Cashmere: comfortable, warm and soft.
