Last week, I wrote an article introducing why cashmere is so expensive. You can see the details here: How Cashmere Is Produced.

Cheeks skin is one of the most sensitive parts of our body. 100% cashmere will not cause any discomfort or itchy feeling when it closes to our cheeks. In other words, if cashmere clothes don't produce any rejection reaction to our cheeks, its quality is certainly good.

Try to select the clothes that are marked with 100% cashmere, as only 100% cashmere is required for inspection and official authorization. Those coats/ oversized sweaters are marked with 70% cashmere and 30% wool may have cashmere content of only 5%!!!

For cashmere coats, the heavier, the warmer. Because the cashmere is woven by the double-thread yarns, and those that are woven by multi-yarns are heavier.

Pinch the cloth slightly, the better the quality of cashmere will not wrinkle at all, or the crease is not obvious.

Natural cashmere is generally white, gray and brown. And in the dyeing process, cashmere will lose part of softness. Thus, although the bright colors are attractive, those cashmere clothes with natural colors are more comfortable and cozy instead.

As I mentioned before, a pure cashmere coat costs almost $1,800 to $5,000, so if a cashmere coat only costs 1-2 thousands, probably it's not pure cashmere.
