FAQ - Frequently asked questions about Himalayan Wool


đŸ§¶ Material & quality

 

What is Angora wool and why is it special?
Angora goat wool comes from young Angora sheep and is extra soft and warm. It insulates naturally but allows the skin to breathe.

Are your garments 100% wool?
Yes, we only use wool from angora cows and lambs - no synthetic fibers.

Are your clothes handmade?
The garments are knitted on semi-manual machines by local artisans in the Himalayas. Each garment is unique.

Does wool itch?
The fibers from young animals are finer and softer than regular wool, making the garments comfortable even directly against the skin. We only use the softest wool from kittens and lambs. All wool can itch if you are sensitive so we do not make any guarantees. If you are sensitive, you can choose one of our lined garments. Guaranteed itch-free!

Doesn't wool make you too hot?
No, wool regulates body temperature - it warms when it's cold and breathes when it's warmer.

Do wool garments smell when you sweat?
No, wool does not absorb odors. Wool has hollow fibers and therefore it is free of odors.
