Description
Description
A 100% Himalayan cashmere hoodie, hand-combed from Chyangra (Changthangi) goats and knitted by artisans in Nepal — NPIA-certified for authenticity. Elevated everyday comfort, warm without the bulk.
Your yoga class ends at 10. Your lunch is at noon.
Most people go home to change.
You won't.
Built to Go Further.
High in Nepal's Mustang region, at 14,000 feet, Chyangra goats grow the world's finest fiber. Once a year, it is gently combed by hand.
Then it travels to Kathmandu, where master artisans make a choice that most brands skip. They knit it at 12 gauge — a tighter, more refined weave that takes more time and demands more skill to keep consistent.
The surface it creates is different. Sleek. Smooth. Clean-lined. Not the texture of a cozy pullover. More like a jacket that happens to feel like a cloud.
Then comes the zip. A full-length metal zip, set by hand. Because the kind of versatility this hoodie offers needs a closure that matches it.
Is This Made for You?
This hoodie is for you if:
→ You want one piece that goes from yoga to lunch without needing a wardrobe change
→ You run hot and cold — and you need a zip, not a pullover
→ You want cashmere that looks as refined as it feels — not casual, not stiff, just right
→ You believe getting dressed should be simple — and simple should still look beautiful
What Does Wearing This Feel Like?
Pull on the zip. Feel how smoothly it runs — from hem to collar — no catching, no sticking.
Now hold it open and run your hand across the fabric. The 12-gauge knit sits differently from a loose ribbed knit. It is closer. Cleaner. It moves more like a jacket than a sweater.
Zip it all the way up. The warmth arrives quickly. This is 16-micron cashmere — naturally warm, but barely there in weight. You feel it before you register how little it weighs.
Now unzip it halfway. You are wearing something different. Open it fully. Something different again.
That's the thing about a full-zip cashmere hoodie. It isn't one garment. It's three.

The One You Reach For.
There is always that one piece in a wardrobe. The one you grab first. The one that is always the right answer — too cold, too warm, too casual, too formal, running late, taking your time.
A cashmere zip hoodie is that piece. But only when it is made right. When it is 12-gauge Chyangra cashmere, hand-knitted in Kathmandu, with a zip that runs clean from the first day to the last.
This isn't just comfortable.
It's the kind of comfortable you can actually live in.
