Mohair

Mohair

Lustrous, Durable, and Responsibly Sourced Mohair, the silky and lustrous fiber from Angora goats, is prized for its unmatched softness, durability, and elegant drape. Known for taking dye beautifully, it creates rich, vibrant colors that last for years.

When sourced responsibly under the Responsible Mohair Standard (RMS) and through trusted cooperatives or non-profits, mohair supports high animal welfare standards, sustainable land management, and fair compensation for farmers. Angora goats are natural browsers, which can reduce land degradation, and when paired with ethical farm practices, mohair production can be environmentally mindful.

Durable, lightweight, and naturally insulating, mohair garments are made to last, reducing waste and fitting perfectly into a circular wardrobe. By choosing responsibly sourced mohair, you’re investing in luxury that’s as kind to the planet as it is to your skin.

At Circular People, we choose brands that prioritize traceability and transparency. We look for Responsible Mohair Standard (RMS) certified products that ensure ethical treatment of animals and sustainable land management. We also celebrate natural-colored mohair by choosing undyed garments wherever possible, which reduces water and chemical use. This approach supports a more ethical, transparent, and sustainable future for the mohair industry, empowering farmers, protecting animals, and preserving the environment.
