e. Caps by Koru
The Possumsilk Collection by KORU is a luxurious range of Possum silk knitwear and accessories for men and women. A blend of 50% merino lambswool, 40% possum fibre and 10% silk, Possumsilk is extremely warm, soft and lightweight to wear. The reason Possumsilk is so warm and lightweight is because of the possum fibre’’s unique hollow structure, which gives it excellent thermal properties. The possum fur is blended with merino lambswool and silk to give it added softness and strength. KORU has combined the wonderful benefits of Possumsilk with great design for an exclusive range of knitwear that is a pleasure to wear. First Street Leather is to be the sole U.S. importer for KORU Possumsilk products.
Your purchase of Possumsilk Collection products will help to protect New Zealand’s beautiful native forests and wildlife from destruction as well as providing you with a luxurious, high quality garment. The possum fibre in Possumsilk comes from the New Zealand Brushtail Possum, a non-native species causing enormous ecological damage to New Zealand’s native forests and wildlife. Brushtail Possums reproduce prolifically in New Zealand’’s lush environment and are not only eating the native plants and trees at a tremendous rate but are also in direct competition for food with our native wildlife. As of 2005, there were approximately 80 million Brushtail Possums in New Zealand.
