About Possum Wool
Possum Wool is a wonderful blend of possum fur and superfine New Zealand Merino wool with a texture similar to cashmere - luxuriously soft, incredibly lightweight, exceptionally warm and easy to wear. It wont pill, it won't wrinkle, it's anti-static and is a market solution to an environmental challenge facing New Zealand. Once you've tried it nothing else will feel as warm and soft.
The possum fur, Merino wool blend is 50% warmer than Merino wool on its own. The possum fibre is hollow which provides incredible warmth without weight. Being scale free, it's smooth and soft against your skin. It will not freeze and the only other fibre in the world known to have this same characteristic is polar bear fur!
Superfine New Zealand Merino wool is renowned for its fineness, durability and breathable properties. It combines beautifully with possum fur to create garments of exceptional quality and incredibly good value.
