In cahoots with the team at Manawatu Knitting Mills, Opus Fresh is proud to present a special addition to the knitwear range - The Longline Cardigan.
Crafted from a blend of Possum Fur, Silk and New Zealand Merino Wool, detailed with the signature Opus Fresh organic leather patch.
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.
Signature 'Mountain Geometric' Leather patch.
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.
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 135-year tradition of creating finely crafted accessories.
Available in Charcol, Silver Grey or a rich, warm, Whiskey Brown.
Made in the rural heartland of Manawatu in the central North Island of New Zealand.
SIZING:
WOMENS (measure under arms - no shirt, but bra on - at fullest bust point)
Absolutely love it and the colour! Such an awesome business to deal with too. Will definitely be after another one in a different colour!
Alpha Hoodie - Tussock Marle

An alpha wolf pull over.
The kind of hoodie that leads the pack.
Strong, with a gentle side too; 5-thread top-stitching for seam strength, in brushed back 100% Merino Wool, for that super soft, snuggly feel.
The multi-toned marle finish combined with the antibacterial, anti-stain and anti-odour properties of merino keeps it classy when you are putting it through it's paces. It’s so good you probably won't take it off, especially when you’re rallying the pack through the mountain pass in search of prey.
The Alpha...it's just better.
