Every Aran is always knit from 100% natural wool, resilient, renewable and degradable.

what it is made of

The Cable Knit Crew is made entirely of pure new wool. Pure new wool is a natural animal fiber that insulates and resists odor; favor untreated. That composition is what Toxome scores, and it earns 76 out of 100 on the fiber scale, where 100 is cleanest. This piece carries Certified Authentic Aran®, which covers how the fiber was grown and processed, not just what it is.

FAQ

What is the Cable Knit Crew made of?

It is 100% pure new wool.

Is pure new wool safe to wear?

Pure new wool is a natural animal fiber that insulates and resists odor; favor untreated. Toxome rates every fiber on what it does to the body of the person wearing it, and publishes the reasoning rather than a badge. The score covers the fiber, not the dyes and finishes a mill adds later.

How does Toxome score clothing?

Toxome reads each garment's fiber composition and scores it on what that fiber does to your body, not on a brand's sustainability marketing. A higher score means a cleaner fiber. Composition is taken from what the brand publishes, so the score reflects the label rather than our opinion of it.
