Opus Fresh, in cahoots with the Manawatu Knitting Mills, brings you some of the warmest and most sustainably produced woolen garments in all the land. With no wasteful offcuts, use of New Zealand wool and possum fur, plus being entirely made in New Zealand this knitwear is more than a cut above the rest.
The epic collaboration with the team at Manawatu Knitting Mills strikes again, this time they have passed down their delicious possum merino blend to The New Ribbed Skirt! This little beauty has style and comfort wrapped in to one! Perfect for that aprés adventure dinner party or even that business meeting in that cold office.
Crafted from a blend of Possum Fur, Silk and New Zealand Merino Wool.
Tech Specs:
Made from a 70% Merino, 20% Possum, 10% Silk blend.
The unique blend of possum fur and merino lamb’s wool creates a piling retardant fibre. Possum fur is low-pill and anti-static which means the garment can be worn throughout the years and still look as new as the day it was purchased.
Possum fibre will not freeze, even when exposed to periods of prolonged cold. The only fibre on the planet known to have the same characteristic is Polar Bear fur.
Possum fibre has no scales and is hollow, which gives both lightness and warmth, compared to other natural fibres of a similar micron.
Possum fibre is silky to handle providing an instant feel appeal, unlike any other fibre.
The MKM boasts a 141 year tradition of creating finely crafted accessories.
Made in the rural heartland of Manawatu in the central North Island of New Zealand.

The brushtail possum was introduced to New Zealand in the 1850s and is now wreaking havoc on our natural wildlife and native forest. The need to control the number of possums to protect our native flora and fauna saw the development of this NZ exclusive, specialised natural fibre.
