A good half of this jacquard sweater is made from mohair, which is obtained from the fine hair of Angora goats. It is particularly light and soft and has a delicately shiny surface. The natural fiber also insulates well against the cold and is temperature-regulating at the same time. In our range, we only offer mohair from controlled organic animal husbandry to ensure that the Angora goats are kept under species-appropriate conditions and that the shearing process is cruelty-free. The other half of the carefully considered combination of materials is warming wool from controlled organic animal husbandry. The jacquard knit has a beautiful melange tone, accentuated by a black stripe on the front and back. The slightly cropped fit creates a casual look. Rib-knitted cuffs on the sleeves and hem and a ribbed round neckline round off the design. Whether paired with jeans or a skirt, this sweater will quickly become a favorite piece in your winter wardrobe.

On the western tip of the Breton peninsula lies the department of Finistère. According to the Roman name, this is the end of the earth. For the Bretons, on the other hand, it is “Penn ar Bed”, the beginning of the world – a reading that does far more justice to the brand “Les Racines du Ciel” (i. e., the roots of heaven). Nathalie Goyette and Christian Tournafol founded the Quimper-based brand. The two have been producing elegant, feminine and timeless women’s fashion since 2005. Besides aiming at high-quality standards, Les Racines du Ciel’s declared entrepreneurial goal is to promote artisanal traditions and products and thus preserve jobs in impoverished rural areas. They choose their production locations correspondingly.
