Since 1880, Maison Montagut has devoted all its passion to creating exceptional knitwear products. The expertise and elegance of timeless knitwear stitches are combined with the creativity of beautifully sized knitwear pieces. Inside your package, you'll find a small card detailing the material you've purchased and how best to care for it to ensure the longest possible lifespan.
Maison Montagut puts all its heart and time into developing exceptional products with a unique style. We are very demanding about the origin and quality of our different yarns, and we take the greatest care in the manufacture of our knitwear to bring you the greatest satisfaction. Our products are designed to last, to be worn in your most intimate moments. They are imbued with what you go through in life. They can even last for generations. A gift of heirlooms and memories.
We have chosen a 100% Italian merino yarn, made from the finest and most consistent wool fibers. Soft and thermoregulating, it offers optimal comfort. Naturally resistant to friction, it does not pill, and our tight knitting further enhances its durability. Certified mulesing-free and for part of the AH24 line compliant with the Responsible Wool Standard (RWS), it comes from South Africa or South America. An ethical and responsible choice in favor of the well-being of animals and producers.
We carefully select the finest cashmere yarns. Made by a trusted partner from the finest hairs of the combed Inner Mongolian goat, these superior-quality yarns (grade A) with exceptional micronage offer warmth, softness, and excellent resistance to pilling. The 2-ply is particularly suitable for mid-season, while the thicker 4-ply is ideal for mid-winter. A special feature of Maison Montagut: our cashmere is knitted at home in Europe.
Since 2020, our fall-winter collections have included a selection of pieces made from recycled cashmere. Extremely soft and durable, this high-quality fiber is sourced from textile items that have had a previous life. A conscious choice that allows us to limit the use of virgin resources. And since this season, this line has been GRS certified.
Our 90% wool, 10% cashmere pieces combine the comfort of wool with the softness of cashmere. A clever blend for moderate thermal insulation, ideal at the start of the season when the days start to get cooler.
Technical wool, a blend of wool, viscose, and polyamide, guarantees breathability, rapid moisture wicking, and increased resistance to pilling. It dries quickly, reduces odors, and combines comfort and durability.
Fluffy, mohair provides softness and lightness while effectively regulating temperature. Wrinkle and wear-resistant, this comfortable and strong natural fiber retains its appearance for a long time.
A cellulose fiber extracted and made from natural bamboo, bamboo fiber is soft, lightweight, strong, and highly absorbent. Combined with cashmere, which adds warmth and comfort, it provides a very sensual second-skin feel.
A summer material par excellence, our cotton comes from loyal European spinners. Next season, some of our cotton will be organically grown and GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certified, an international standard that guarantees the organic origin of the raw material and the lowest environmental impact from harvest to manufacturing.
Thin, strong, and absorbent, linen is very comfortable to wear and perfect for warm days. Produced locally in Europe and requiring little water or pesticides, this fiber is considered zero waste because all the by-products of its processing find a specific use, such as the production of composite material reinforcements.
Cotton linen combines the softness of cotton and the strength of linen, with breathability and lightness ideal for warm days. This yarn blend guarantees both durability and comfort, while being naturally hypoallergenic and biodegradable.
A blend of viscose, linen, and polyamide, slub linen has an irregular texture that gives it a unique look. Lightweight and breathable, it's particularly comfortable to wear in summer.
Used in the composition of Fil Lumière, polyamide is a synthetic material that is paradoxically extremely durable, taken from the perspective of greenhouse gas emissions related to one day of wear, as suggested by the first results of our life cycle analyses (according to the PEF method). Nevertheless, our development teams are constantly testing qualities of recycled polyamide 6/6 with the ambition of developing a more virtuous version, but no test has yet been able to match the drape and shine characteristics of conventional polyamide.
