GOBI Cashmere Discount Codes & Vouchers

GOBI Cashmere is a Mongolian knitwear maker that owns its supply chain from the herders to the finished jumper, and a discount code is the sensible way in, because cashmere is one of the few materials where the price gap between good and bad is genuinely justified.

Why Mongolian cashmere is the reference point

Cashmere is the soft undercoat combed from goats that survive extreme winters, and the harsher the climate, the finer and longer the fibre tends to be. Mongolia's continental extremes produce some of the world's most sought-after raw material. GOBI has been based in Ulaanbaatar since the early 1980s and is vertically integrated — buying the raw fibre, then dehairing, spinning, dyeing and knitting in its own facilities, which is unusual in a trade where most brands buy finished yarn or finished garments. Fewer intermediaries is why a comparable jumper costs less here than under a European luxury label.

Reading the specification

Two numbers tell you most of what you need. Fibre diameter in microns describes softness — the finer the number, the softer and more delicate. Ply and gauge describe the knit: a two-ply mid-gauge jumper is a proper winter layer, while a fine single-ply is closer to a summer-weight top and will not do the same job. "One hundred per cent cashmere" is a starting point, not a guarantee, since short, coarse fibres can be spun into a garment that pills within weeks. Certifications for chemical safety and responsible sourcing are worth looking for.

Wearing and looking after it

All cashmere pills where it rubs — under the arms, at the sides, across a seatbelt line. That is friction, not a fault, and a cashmere comb restores the surface; pilling reduces after the first few wears. Wash by hand or on a wool cycle in cool water with a wool detergent, never wring it, and dry flat, because a wet cashmere jumper on a hanger will stretch into a different garment. Store folded, not hung, and use moth protection between seasons.

Delivery, returns and using your code

GOBI ships internationally from Mongolia and its regional operations, so a UK order can take longer than a domestic one and may attract import VAT and duty charged by customs on arrival — factor that in before deciding a code has made something cheap. Unworn items with tags attached can go back inside the stated window, but the return journey is a long one, so check size guides against your measurements. Codes rarely stack with seasonal sale pricing.
