The world's finest cashmere originates from the remote highlands of Mongolia, Inner Mongolia, and the Kashmir region of the Himalayas, where extreme temperature variations create the perfect conditions for cashmere goats to develop their precious undercoat. These hardy animals endure brutal winters that can reach -40°F, naturally growing an incredibly soft protective layer beneath their coarse outer hair.

Yves Salomon sources premium cashmere from these traditional regions, where herders have perfected their craft over generations. The Grade A cashmere we select comes exclusively from goats raised in these harsh climates, as the severe conditions produce the finest, longest fibers with superior insulation properties.

Our comprehensive guide to sourcing ensures every cashmere piece meets the highest standards of luxurious fabric quality, bringing you the authentic warmth and natural softness that only these legendary regions can provide.
