The Milky Cardigan is a comfortable, long cardigan made from Kempisch Heidenschap (Heathens) in collaboration with tiSHōō, an Arnhem-based fashion brand that, like us, believes in ethical materials and responsible production methods. From their studio and shop in the Fashion District, tiSHōō works with natural fabrics, small production runs, and a strong focus on detail and wearability.

In this collaboration, their design vision merged with our expertise in wool and knitting. The result is a cardigan in which material, shape, and manufacturing process are carefully coordinated. Locally produced, with respect for the fiber, and designed to last.

The special characteristics of the Kempisch Heideschaap

The soft, high-quality wool used for this cardigan comes primarily from Kempen Heath sheep from the Wassum grazing farm in Roermond (60%). This herd has a small ecological footprint. For even softer comfort, wool from Dutch alpacas has been added. It also features 20% Responsible Wool Standard (RWS)-certified merino wool.

Wool cools in summer and warms in winter, is highly resistant to bacteria, flame-retardant, and biodegradable. Wool is self-cleaning and therefore rarely needs washing. Airing is often more than enough. This way, your favorite sweater or cardigan will last for generations.

Choose your color and size

The vest is available in sand (undyed) and dark blue. The dark blue is GOTS-dyed.

This cardigan is a semi-fitted style, reaching mid-thigh. The cardigan is 77 cm long (from the highest point of the shoulder), 69 cm long (sleeve length), and 70 cm wide (bust width).

If you'd like to adjust the length, please mention this in the comments when ordering.
