Our production cashmere

CASHMERE – from goat to sweater

Our cashmere and merino wool sweaters and jackets start their life in Inner Mongolia, at a small family-owned factory in Batou that has been making some of the world's most beautiful garments since 2006. Here, traditional craftsmanship is combined with modern production techniques to ensure that each garment has the quality and softness that our customers expect.

The cashmere we use is carefully selected from goats that live in the high, clean mountains of Inner Mongolia. The fibers are collected once a year, in the spring, and carefully combed by hand to preserve their fine quality. The pure cashmere fiber is washed, dyed and spun into yarn at our own spinning mills, before being knitted into timeless sweaters and jackets in Batou. Every step of the process is carefully considered to preserve the fiber’s softness and natural properties.

For our blended yarns, we combine cashmere with merino wool sourced from carefully selected farms in Australia.

We place great emphasis on sustainability and traceability. Our yarn has the most recognized certifications, including GOTS, RWS, Traceable Cashmere, Sustainable Fibre Alliance, The Good Cashmere Standard and GRS. This ensures that both materials and production follow strict environmental requirements and ethical guidelines. You can read more about our products here: REPASDO

For us, responsible production is also about people. We have entered into a Code of Conduct agreement with all our manufacturers, which ensures good working conditions and fair pay for everyone involved. Our Norwegian agent visits the factory annually, and we meet with the manufacturer here in Norway to ensure that quality, craftsmanship and ethics are always at the forefront.

Every sweater and jacket is therefore not just a garment, it is the result of years of tradition, experience, care for animals and people, and an uncompromising pursuit of quality. We want you as a customer to feel the history, warmth and luxury in every single garment.
