yo not really a designer knit but really really nice and probably at least as high quality as Jil etc. Untouched World. most of their designs are pretty bland but the fabric is amazing. Went into the store the other day. It's a 60%merino of the fine variety (17 microns i think, NZ merino), 30% possum fur which is really, really soft, softer than cashmere and doesn't pill as much, 10% silk. they're ridiculously soft. Here's one of their nicer designs:

$555NZ, i think that's about $450US.

Tried on the heaviest knit ever today. Must have been over 10 pounds, Dolce&Gabbana 100% virgin wool retail 875 almost bought it for 350. I've handled Margiela heavyweights and this pretty much *********** all over it
