On one hand, baby cashmere; on the other, cashmere and coarse hair. The half-zip design is available not only in a variety of colors but also in a range of materials. As expected from Loro Piana, a brand that stands head and shoulders above the rest in fabric production.
Loro Piana’s iconic baby cashmere is spun from the undercoat—harvested only once in a sheep’s lifetime—with a yield of just 30 grams per sheep. Its texture is truly exquisite.
Cashmere Course Hair is a heritage yarn made from a proprietary blend based on pure cashmere. It’s highly durable and is sure to perform well even during leisure activities.

The slightly relaxed silhouette is modern in its own right, but the details also live up to expectations. For example, the ribbing on the baby cashmere pieces is thick, while that on the cashmere-course hair pieces is fine. The former exudes a noble feel, while the latter has a sporty vibe. The design fully captures the appeal of the materials.

I’m also impressed by the meticulously designed neckline. If you zip it up and leave it as is, it creates a subtly styled neckline; if you fold it over, it becomes a turtleneck; and if you unzip it, it spreads out beautifully like a horizontal collar.
Because of its minimalist design, the craftsmanship in the materials and details really stands out.
