KNIT#42 Undyed Gray Yak

DESCRIPTION 
JAN JAN VAN ESSCHE 2023-24 Autumn Winter Collection.

A pullover knit made using the wool of the yak, a bovine animal inhabiting harsh terrains at altitudes exceeding 3000 meters.

This high-quality material is comparable to cashmere in luxury, and it's said to excel cashmere in heat retention.

While JAN-JAN VAN ESSCHE's knitwear is primarily hand-knit, this piece is machine-knitted, allowing for a relatively affordable price point despite the use of yak wool.

The decision to use undyed material highlights the natural beauty of yak wool's color while also considering environmental pollution caused by dyeing.
