Pure cashmere

Cashmere is the finest raw material in the textile industry. All LEOMAX cashmere pieces are unique and made from the finest cashmere. They are particularly light and voluminous, but remain wonderfully warm. Their excellent thermal properties, softness and delicacy make them an absolute favorite.

We source our raw material from Inner Mongolia, where the world's best cashmere fibers come from. The entire production process, from spinning, dyeing (using eco-friendly Swiss dyes), weaving and knitting to quality control and packaging, takes place in our traditional workshops in Kathmandu. For generations, the weavers have mastered the techniques that have been handed down to make our precious cashmere products by hand. The scarcity of the raw material and the complex manufacturing process make LEOMAX cashmere items coveted "must-haves".

Cashmere goats live in their natural habitat at over 4000 m altitude and at times below -40 degrees in Inner Mongolia. Only once a year, during the natural change of fur in spring, is the cashmere goat's cuddly hairy duvet combed and sorted by hand in a time-consuming process. Since only about 130 grams are gained per goat, cashmere is considered the most valuable natural fibre of all, also known as "white gold" in Nepal.
