Cashmere from Hircus goat
Luxury Collection by Nobile Italy 1982
Light and breathable cashmere for your feet
Cashmere wool is obtained from the Hircus goat, an activity that dates back about 3,000 years in Mongolia during the settlement of the first nomadic shepherd communities.
For centuries, the Mongols refined the techniques of cashmere production, making their product extremely valuable and sought after by international traders.
The Made in Italy processing of this ancient yarn brings a precious and sought-after product with unparalleled benefits to your feet.
Hircus Laniger goat
Noble Yarn
A single Hircus goat produces only about 150-200 grams of clean cashmere fiber per year, making its cashmere extremely rare and valuable.
The harvesting of this fine wool takes place once a year during the goat's shedding season, a completely natural and non-invasive process.
The result is an exceptionally soft and light yarn. Another advantage is that it naturally regulates temperature, offering comfort throughout the year by keeping feet warm in winter and cool in summer.
Properties
Breathable
Despite its warmth, cashmere from Hircus goat is highly breathable, which helps prevent moisture buildup and keeps feet dry and comfortable.
Its fibers contain microscopic air chambers that trap warm air, providing superior warmth compared to other types of fibers while remaining incredibly light and breathable.
This allows Hircus goat cashmere socks to keep feet warm without excessive overheating.
Comfort
Gentle on the Skin
Cashmere has a natural elasticity that allows the socks to fit well to the feet, offering optimal comfort and preventing the socks from moving or slipping.
It is also hypoallergenic, making it suitable for people with sensitive skin or allergies.
The fibers of the Hircus Laniger goat offer a superior level of comfort, making these socks a true pleasure to wear in every season and on every occasion.
