Made in New Zealand

Kapeka Merinosilk knitwear is made in New Zealand from a special 100% natural blend. Our superior blend with a golden ratio of natural fibres aims to provide luxurious handle, ultimate warmth and a garment that lasts.

Compared to other materials, Merinosilk is:
55% warmer than 100% merino
35% warmer than 100% cashmere

How are Merinosilk garments made?
Merinosilk garments are knitted using whole garment technology. This means Kapeka garments are knitted in a single process on one machine. Bulky, thick seams are minimised allowing a better fit and maximum comfort. By using whole garment technology, no fabric is cut which avoids wear and tear, prolonging the life of a garment. They are pre-shrunk, minimising the risk of shrinkage. Our Merinosilk garments are mostly seamless, very durable, and super easy to machine wash.

70% Super-fine Merino wool, 20% Possum fur, 10% Mulberry silk

Firstly - does it need washing?

We use natural fibres which naturally are anti-odour (thanks to their antibacterial properties) and are breathable. Therefore we find that our garments only need to be washed every so often. Letting you garment breath in the open air is all that it may need.

However, if it does need a freshen up here's how:

Machine wash in warm water (turn garment inside out and even better, in a garment bag), with wool/delicate detergent, on a wool cycle, lay flat to dry. We also advise you wash similar garments together (i.e. delicates together, not with towels!)

Our garments are pre-shrunk making them less susceptible to shrinking in the wash, however that being said generally avoid prolonged heat exposure either through hot water or tumble drying.
