Our Commitment to Cashmere

Only the finest materials can produce the finest products.
Materials must be environmentally friendly.

UTO's cashmere knits are made from the highest quality cashmere yarn, produced from "world-class raw wool" and "Japan's finest technology."

We use "Grade 1 raw cashmere" sourced from Inner Mongolia, China. This is an extremely rare raw material, meticulously selected for its fiber length, fineness, color, and crimp. Toyoboshi Co., Ltd., a globally renowned spinning company, then dyes and spins this raw material with advanced technology to produce the finished cashmere yarn.

This Japanese-made 100% cashmere yarn is what underpins the quality of UTO's cashmere knits.

Our Dedication to "Made in Japan"

Not mass production, but careful craftsmanship through "individual hand-stitching"
Delivering the "warmth of the craftsman's hands" woven into every piece

A unique factory that produces only cashmere all year round.
"UTO Cashmere Knit" is born from a factory surrounded by nature, located on a hill overlooking the Waga River, a tributary of the Kitakami River in Iwate Prefecture.

It is not simply one piece out of hundreds or thousands that reaches you.

"Linking seams" that determine comfort
"Ironing finish" that enhances the beauty of the knit

The meticulous cashmere artisans of Tohoku, who value "quality born from handwork,"
will painstakingly create "a piece just for you."

After fulling (washing), all drying at UTO is done through "natural drying."

Normally, it's common practice to use a dryer to dry items quickly. However, natural drying takes time and effort. Nevertheless, UTO believes that meticulously attending to texture and quality, and "treating cashmere gently, carefully, and with utmost care, like a baby," right down to the final "drying" stage, is what creates the finest cashmere.

Our Commitment to "Color"

Deeply Luminous Cashmere Colors,
Born from Blended Hues

UTO's cashmere knits employ "yarn dyeing" for excellent color retention and long-lasting enjoyment, and "low-temperature dyeing" to preserve their soft texture.

"Yarn dyeing" is the most labor-intensive and costly method, but we make no compromises when it comes to color. Furthermore, "low-temperature dyeing," which involves slow dyeing at low temperatures, is an advanced technique that brings out uniform color and the inherent smooth texture of cashmere.

For example, "Royal Blue" is created by blending five colors of yarn, while "Medium Grey" is a exquisite combination of black, white, light beige, and light purple. By blending five to ten colors of yarn in this way, we create beautiful shades with depth and richness.

Washable, "Growing" Cashmere

Cashmere That Grows With You
For as Long as You Spend Time Together

"Washes without shrinking"—UTO's cashmere knit is the result of years of research and technology, designed to be easily and safely washed at home.
It's UTO's "growing cashmere knit," becoming progressively softer and smoother with each wash and wear.

We invite you to enjoy the unique characteristics of this natural material and the luxurious time created by its age-related changes.
