Merino and cashmere

A merino and cashmere blend takes the softness of cashmere and pairs it with merino durability. This hub holds every garment tagged as a blend of the two fibres, including Merino and Cashmere Jumpers, cardigans, vests, dresses and lounge pants. Pure merino pieces and pure cashmere pieces are excluded and each has its own hub. The fibre content for any one garment is stated on its product page.

Why the ratio matters

What a shopper is choosing between inside this hub is how much cashmere softness they want against how much merino toughness they need. Two garments that look similar wear quite differently depending on where the blend falls, and the split is written on the garment's own page and its care label.

Softness meets durability

Cashmere brings softness and light warmth. Merino brings strength and breathability. A blend sits between the two on comfort, on weight and on the price ladder. Different garments use different ratios, so one blend jumper leans soft and warm while another leans tougher and cooler. The exact split is on every garment's own page and on its sewn in label.

The blend garment range

The merino and cashmere blend category covers pullovers, cardigans, vests, dresses and lounge pants. Most pieces skew to a women's fit, with a real men's group that runs across the same garment shapes. The appeal is a middle ground where a wearer gets some of the cashmere feel without the full cashmere care routine or price.

Common questions

Is cashmere and wool a good blend?
A cashmere and wool blend is a practical choice. It gives a garment some of the softness and light warmth of cashmere while the wool adds structure and abrasion resistance. The result is a jumper that costs less than pure cashmere and asks less careful handling day to day. The feel depends heavily on the ratio used in that particular garment.
Is 70% wool and 30% cashmere good?
The question names one possible ratio, but the store does not claim that any of its garments use that exact split. As the cashmere share rises the garment gets softer, pills faster and costs more. As the merino share rises it gets tougher, breathes better and costs less. The fibre content for every piece is written on its own product page and care label.
Which is better, cashmere or merino?
Cashmere gives more softness and light warmth. Merino gives more toughness and costs less. A blend of the two is the shop's answer for someone who wants a bit of both. The store does not rank one above the other. The better fibre is the one that matches what a shopper wants from the garment they will wear most often.
