Men's Clothing

Bear Cottage supplies a range of possum fur merino wool men's garments supplied by Mcdonald Textiles. There are different types of clothing to meet different needs with a range of sizes and colours to choose from. Born and bred in the high country regions of New Zealand, Merino fleece has a world-leading reputation for being gentle, strong and resilient. With the finest of individual fibres this fleece provides perfect comfort while delivering warmth across a huge range of conditions. We carefully select only the finest quality fibres from the very best of sources for our yarn. Pure mulberry silk has been regarded for centuries as one of the world’s most luxurious natural fibres. With natural strength and hypoallergenic and breathable characteristics it is perfect material to ensure a smooth, comforting feel. All leather used on our garments is hand-washable genuine lambskin leather. This is the softest and most supple of all leathers – it is regarded as the only choice when it comes to crafting luxury clothing that will withstand the test of time. The brushtail possum is a small marsupial with a coat of unique, valuable fur. The secret of this fur’s warmth is its hollow structure, an attribute found in only one other species – the polar bear. With air trapped inside the fibre the fur provides sumptuous warmth, natural insulation and incredible lightness. In New Zealand this possum is also a major threat to our native wildlife – and its use in high-end fashion helps bolster our country’s conservation efforts.
