Yak Down is durable and beautifully soft like silk so you can wear it directly on your skin. This pullover is free size and made of the finest yak wool ( yak down, undercoat) from Mongolian Altai Yaks,
Due to Mongolia's climate, yaks live at high altitudes, so their wool needs to be extremely warm. Mongolian yak down has this unique property because of the geographical and climatic conditions, where temperatures can reach -50C in winter.
Yak wool can keep warmth in, is more breathable, and is easier to clean than other wool. It is more durable than cashmere while maintaining the luxury touch, and its strength comes from the high levels of amino acids contained within the fibers.
It is resistant to static electricity, meaning garments are less likely to spark and cling to the body in dry conditions. Because it does not absorb odors and sweat, it needs less washing.
Environmental impact.
Nomads and their domestic animals are, in a sense, equals as they depend on each other for survival. A decent environment is essential for both. Yak don’t contribute to overgrazing as they can graze on pastures inaccessible to other goats and sheep. Their less destructive grazing habits mean a reduced risk of desertification and damage to fragile ecosystems.
