Possum Merino is the new Cashmere

For that special piece of clothing, nothing beats possum merino. From sweaters, tops, vests and more, the fashion world is clamouring for the luxury qualities of this outstanding textile.

Lighter and silkier than cashmere and warmer than traditional wool, possum merino is the new way to look stylish and stay warm in cooler weather. With unique hollow strands, possum fur is an amazing insulator and is much lighter than traditional wool, feeling soft and silky against the skin. When mixed with merino, the fabric doesn’t pill or shed, meaning your clothing always looks new and plush.

Possum fur, along with polar bear fur, are the only furs that never freeze, and can even generate warmth when wet. Both merino and possum fur help you stay dry by pulling moisture away from the body, and out into the air to evaporate, meaning it helps keep you drier while also tamping down any odours.

We stock possum merino garments for both men and women in a range of styles and colours to complement every wardrobe.

Outdoor wear and leisure wear

Make your Bay of Islands holiday even more enjoyable with outdoor and leisure wear from The Cabbage Tree. Look great while dressed in clothing designed to be as active or relaxed as you want to be in our range of jackets, merino and cotton T-shirts, as well as swimwear and leisurewear.
