“ubiquity can spell trouble for a product that's been historically marketed as a luxury item.”
what makes one sweater better/priced higher than another:
\- THE QUALITY OF THE YARN. where the garment was manufactured, the number of units purchased by the brand and the markup. lengthier cashmere fibers maintain their integrity for a longer time, allowing garments to retain their structure (avoid pilling (the small balls that form on the fabric as it chafes)). these days, manufacturers frequently make the clothes out of a mix of lengths to balance quality with cost. "the customer cares more about the hand-feel than they care about the durability or the color saturation. they don't even care if it starts to pill. we've just become used to it." said Matt Scanlan.
cashmere goats locations: Australia, China, and Mongolia.
cashmere-manufacturing prowess: Scotland, Italy (to wash, treat, and refine the fabric. and to achieve strong saturation)
