At MUJI, we select materials that are collected and cultivated in a way that takes the earth, animals, plants, and producers into consideration.

Yak is a family of cattle that live in plateaus above 3,000m above sea level. Its hair, which can withstand the harsh cold, is an excellent material that has both heat retention and suppleness. We carefully combed it by hand at the timing when it would shed naturally, and knit it into a light and soft sweater.
