  • It is warm without being bulky and looks great with jeans.

    Mathias A. · Crew Neck
  • Feels luxurious and cozy. The sweater is high-quality but needs careful handling to maintain its look. Overall, a great addition to my wardrobe.

    Liam S. · V-Neck
  • I really like how this sweater fits. The quarter zip makes it easy to layer, and the cashmere feels smooth against the skin. It keeps me warm without feeling heavy.

    Pablo I. · Quarter Zip
  • I bought this cashmere sweater for the winter in Paris. It is very soft and warm, perfect for chilly days. The fit is nice and stylish, and it goes well under a jacket. I love it.

    Pierre D. · Crew Neck
  • This sweater is really soft and warm, but it stretches out a bit, so you have to handle it carefully.

    Zac S. · V-Neck
  • The quarter zip is positioned perfectly and the funnel neck is comfortable. Wearing it multiple times a week and it's held up beautifully. Great investment.

    Maeve H. · Quarter Zip
  • Nice sweater. Fit is good but sleeves little long for me. Material is soft as expected.

    Swikar A. · Crew Neck
  • My son really liked this, i have gifted him after returning Nepal. I'll definitely buy one for myself too from your online store.

    Joon P. · V-Neck
  • Perfect everyday sweater that doesn't feel fancy but looks put-together.

    Layla K. · Quarter Zip
  • Its warm and soft and stylish but really tricky to care this cashmere sweater. I assumed it could be washed like other clothes and my machine but needs a seperate washing approach.

    Ethan M. · Crew Neck
  • Perfect for daily wear, this V-neck sweater is soft, lightweight, and warm. It pairs well with jeans or dress pants and feels comfortable all day.

    Noah J. · V-Neck
  • I ordered this sweater three weeks ago, and while the product itself is nice, the delivery took longer than expected—almost two weeks. The quality is definitely there, just wish the shipping had been faster. Overall, I'm satisfied with the sweater itself.

    Arthur H. · Quarter Zip
  • This round-neck cashmere sweater feels incredibly soft and gives a refined look. It’s warm without being bulky, making it a great choice for both office wear and casual evenings out.

    Liam S. · Crew Neck
  • I recently purchased this cashmere V-neck sweater and I must say, it's absolutely splendid. The fit is true to size, and the V-neck adds a touch of sophistication. It's versatile enough to be worn both casually and for more formal occasions.

Why cashmere black is rarely jet black

Chyangra goats grow cream, grey and brown fibre, never white. Dyeing it jet black takes so much dye that the fibre loses some of its softness. So most black cashmere is really a very dark charcoal, and ours is named for what you will see in daylight.

What to wear it with

  • Grey or charcoal trousers. The safest choice. The warm cast keeps it from looking like a uniform.
  • Dark denim and dark brown boots. A good pairing. Black boots make the sweater look softer by comparison.
  • A tweed or grey jacket. Good. Skip a navy jacket: black and navy together look accidental.
  • V-neck, white shirt, black knit tie. The warm cast stops it looking severe. More in Wearing a Sweater Under a Blazer (and Suit).

Who it suits

Black flatters high contrast: dark hair with pale or deep skin. If your hair is fair or grey and your colouring is soft, black can drain your face. Try Grey Cashmere Sweaters for Men or Navy Cashmere Sweaters for Men instead.

Living with a black sweater

Black hides food, ink and rain. It shows lint, hair and every pill. It does not pill more, it just shows it more. Lift pills with a cashmere comb, never a razor. Does cashmere pill? And what stops it.

Questions about black

Is this a true jet black?

No. Charcoal Black is a near-black with a warm, soft cast. It looks black indoors and a touch softer in daylight, so it will not match jet-black tailoring exactly.

What is the difference between Charcoal Black and Midnight?

Midnight is a near-black with a hint of purple, like a very dark aubergine. It comes on the crew neck and V-neck under its own name. If you want black, choose Charcoal Black.

Does black cashmere show pilling more than other colours?

It shows it more, it does not pill more. Pale fibres, lint and hair all stand out on a dark sweater. Lift pills with a cashmere comb, never a razor.

Can I wear a black sweater under a navy jacket?

Best avoided. Black and navy side by side tend to look like a mistake. Black works well under grey, brown or tweed.

Does the quarter zip come in black?

No. The quarter zip comes in one colour, Muted Grey-Blue. Charcoal Black is available on the crew neck and the V-neck.
