Description
Description
A 100% pure Himalayan cashmere cardigan, hand-combed from Chyangra (Changthangi) goats and knitted by artisans in Nepal — NPIA-certified for authenticity. An open layer that works over a shirt or a tee.
The Ultimate Chunky Knit Luxury.
Named after the fourth highest peak in the Himalayas, the Lhotse V-Neck Cardigan is a masterpiece of substance. Unlike standard, flimsy layers, the Lhotse is a thick, comforting embrace—a protective sanctuary designed to be the definitive shield against the elements.
Plush Architecture The secret to the Lhotse’s warmth lies in its specialized knit structure. We utilized a low-tension, high-volume technique that creates distinct, visible stitches. This architecture traps deep pockets of air, acting as a natural insulator that standard, flat knits cannot match. The result is a plush, substantial hand-feel that drapes with authority and provides an unparalleled sense of security.
The "Coatigan" Versatility Crafted from 100% pure Chyangra cashmere, the Lhotse possesses the "heft" required to function as an outer layer. It is substantial enough to replace a jacket on a crisp autumn day, yet soft enough to be worn over a silk camisole indoors. Its relaxed drop-shoulder silhouette offers an effortless, generous fit that elevates everything from a weekend denim look to sophisticated evening attire.
Why It’s a Lifetime Sanctuary:
- Substantial Texture: The visible stitching creates a rich, multi-dimensional aesthetic that highlights the raw, luxurious quality of the 16-micron fibers.
- Hand-Knitted Heritage: Each Lhotse is individually crafted by master artisans in Nepal, ensuring a level of durability and soul that mass-produced knitwear lacks.
- NPIA Certified Purity: 100% pure Himalayan cashmere. No blends, no synthetics—just pure, cloud-like warmth in its most honest form.
- Regulated Elegance: The premium button-down front allows for instant temperature adjustment, making it the perfect transition piece from the outdoors to the fireside.

- Softness: Ultra-fine 16-micron fibers 16-micron fibers are exceptionally rare and luxurious, creating an extraordinarily soft feel against your skin (for comparison, human hair is about 75 microns). Each wear feels like wrapping yourself in a cloud.
