Active Cashmere® is founded by brothers Danny and Roy Hakimian with the simple vision of bringing more functionality to cashmere while maintaining the utmost quality of the fiber. Their modern point of view on cashmere embraces minimalism, comfort and respect for craftsmanship. They work with local craftsmen and a global supply chain and manufacturing network developed over two generations in the cashmere business to achieve the highest standard of luxury for today’s fluid lifestyle.
The Active Cashmere® proprietary technology and globally tested treatment process enables the garments to be water repellent, machine washable and durable without compromising the soft hand feel, lightweight nature, and breathability of the cashmere. Water repels off of the garment's surface, maintaining dryness on the inside, and eliminating wetness, staining, odor and water absorption. You can machine wash our garments without the risk of shrinking or pilling, maintaining their original shape and form over countless washes.
The Hakimians family history in the cashmere business extends over 60 years. Their unique access to the world’s finest cashmere stems from their longstanding relationships with Scottish manufacturing and generations of responsible and transparent fiber sourcing initiated by their father, one of the leading suppliers of raw material to top mills in the industry. They source cashmere at the highest industry standards from villages in Inner Mongolia. They work with eco-friendly and green facilities that recycle the water used in their yarn manufacturing process, and knitters that eliminate fabric waste through utilizing the latest garment-knitting techniques and machinery.
