Crafted with a nod to 1960s menswear and embraced during the 1990s grunge era, the Joe McCoy Mohair Cardigan combines timeless style with modern comfort. Made from a luxurious blend of 80% mohair and 20% wool, this cardigan features symmetrical waist pockets and cat eye buttons, offering both functionality and flair. The unique construction, with a natural fiber core wrapped in mohair, ensures exceptional warmth and a substantial feel, making it an essential layering piece for any wardrobe.
From the brand: The Joe McCoy MOHAIR CARDIGAN takes its cue from the menswear trends of the 1960s, but it truly gained prominence in the 1990s during the grunge movement.
Mohair, derived from the Angora goat, is known for its durability, natural elasticity, and flame resistance. In traditional vintage mohair sweaters, nylon or polyester often serves as the core yarn, with mohair yarns woven into it. This combination is knitted together to elevate the texture of the fabric, enhancing both production and processing efficiency. However, with the JM MOHAIR CARDIGAN, the core yarn itself consists of natural fibers, and the mohair yarn is meticulously wrapped around it. This technique imparts a feeling of substantial weight and superior warmth. The final touch of raising the fabric is executed by hand, one garment at a time, utilizing specialized roller machines.
