Is a cashmere hoodie warm enough for cool weather?

Cashmere gives strong warmth for its weight, so it works well as a mid-layer in mild cold. It is a knit, not a windproof shell, so it needs an outer layer in rain or wind.

How should I care for it?

Treat it like fine knitwear: hand wash cold or dry clean, dry flat, and fold rather than hang. Expect some pilling at cuffs and underarms and remove it with a knit comb.

What does the double zipper do?

Two sliders let you open the hem or the neck independently, which helps when sitting or layering. It also lets you adjust ventilation without removing the hoodie.

It has a regular fit, so it sits close but leaves room for a shirt underneath. Size up if you want a looser, more oversized look.

How does it compare with a cotton zip hoodie?

It is softer, warmer and dressier than cotton fleece, but less durable and harder to wash. Cotton wins for everyday abuse; cashmere wins for feel and quiet luxury.
