YakWool Cardigan Sweater

Story

A super soft cardigan made from the “Fibers of the Gods”

Woven from what ancient civilizations have called the Fibers of the Gods, this seasonally rich cardigan sweater blends the primal resilience of yak, the silky softness of alpaca, and the breathable structure of RWS-certified extrafine merino—all reinforced with recycled nylon for everyday durability.

Yaks and alpacas thrive in some of the world’s harshest mountain ranges—the Himalayas and Andes—where temperatures plunge, winds howl, and only nature’s toughest survive. Their fibers were built by evolution to insulate, breathe, and endure—and now they’re woven into a sweater that outperforms cashmere in warmth, breathability, and rugged softness.

It’s warm, odor-resistant, and soft enough to wear next to skin—no T-shirt needed. The result? Earthy luxury with high-altitude grit.
