| annotationText | although cashmere may be the first word that resonates with you, the meaning behind this material runs far deeper than that. Each piece is a result of the Nomad’s hard work fighting desertification, preventing overgrazing, and enduring long Mongolian winters. The amount of work and the rich historical practices that go into producing just one garment is what makes our cashmere and yak wool pieces unlike anything you will find in the world of fast fashion. |
| annotationComment | The work to combat desertification and overgrazing is interestingly linked to a capacity to survive in an extreme climate; the Nomad is resilient and hard-working. This is perhaps intended as a counter-narrative to #overgrazing and #desertification , implying that herders have always practised sustainable livelihoods: #indigenous-sustainability . |
