Warmth from Nature
A blend of Yak and Merino wool results in increased softness and smoothness. Yaks have long lived together with people on the Tibetan plateau, at freezing temperatures and at an altitude above 3,000m. When their hair fluffs up, it is gently removed by hand. The winter hair of the Yaks then returns before winter comes.
Made from delicate hair
The hair of a yak protects the animal's body from the extreme cold of the plateaus, which can reach temperatures of -20C, and serves as an excellent material that has both heat retention properties and elasticity. The hair of yaks is not sheared, but manually collected by hand according to the timing of the natural growth of new hair.
Using yak hair without waste
The thin and delicate hair of yaks is used to produce high-gauge knitwear. Slightly thicker hair that is separated by combing is used for middle-gauge knitwear. These products make the most of the gifts of nature without waste by employing the knitting method that best suits the thickness of yak hair.
Natural colours as they are
From the product colours available, Dark Mocha Brown items are made using the original colour of natural yak hair. Items of other colours are made by dying natural yak hair in a way that makes the most of its underlying original colour.
Lightweight Pocketable Down
Warm and Lightweight
The "Fill Power" is a unit that indicates the amount of expansion (fluffiness) a down product has. The higher the value, the more air it contains. MUJI Australian down has a high quality Fill Power of 750, which means it retains a high volume of air, and therefore heat, inside the garment. This results in lightness and warmth.
