About Baby Cashmere
“Loro Piana Baby cashmere is derived from the first and only combing of hircus kid goats aged 3 to 12 months; the hair has a diameter of 13 to 13.5 microns, versus 14.5 microns from adult goats. Baby cashmere, deriving from the mountainous regions of Northern China and Mongolia, is available in extremely limited quantities: one kid produces no more than 80 grams of this soft down (against the approximately 250 grams produced by an adult) which, after dehairing coarser outer fibers, is reduced to only 30-40 grams that are usable: it takes the fleece of 19 kids to make just one pullover; to make an overcoat requires the fleece of 58 kids.”
