Cashmere in the Summer

Get to know cashmere in a whole new way

Are you looking for something comfortable in the summer that won't cling to your skin? You might not have thought about it, but cashmere could be the perfect answer. Cashmere is typically associated with winter, but it also can be worn year-round, especially in summer, if you choose the right one. It's because cashmere is extremely lightweight, soft and most importantly, airy. Its natural breathability and insulation allow air to circulate freely while keeping you from overheating.

Can you Wear 100% Cashmere
in the Summer?

Absolutely. While winter cashmere sweaters are usually knitted in 12-gauge or lower, summer sweaters are knitted in 16-gauge, making them exceptionally thin and featherlight. The yarn itself is spun much finer, so it's incredibly soft to the touch, almost like silk. This ultra-fine piece makes you feel as if you’re wearing nothing at all, offering excellent breathability and comfort in varying weather conditions. What’s more, they are versatile enough to be layered during the cooler months, making them an essential item for your wardrobe all year round.

The Perfect Blend,
Cotton and Cashmere

To make cashmere even more wearable for everyday in summer, we've come up with the perfect blend: cotton and cashmere. This combination brings together the structured durability and comfort of cotton with the soft touch and fluid silhouette of cashmere. Both materials are known for their durability and stability, making this blend not only a pleasure to wear but also a wise investment for long-lasting clothes.

How to Choose the Perfect Summer Cashmere

If you’re looking for featherlight softness for your summer wardrobe, consider fine-gauge 100% cashmere knits. They'll keep your temperature but not overheat, making them ideal for summer days that can quickly turn cool in the shade or evening. If you prefer something more casual, easy to care for, and hand-washable, cotton cashmere is a great choice for everyday wear. This blend offers unique textures that are hard to achieve with cashmere alone.
