Giving back to the Himalayan nomads

kora was founded with the aim of supporting the communities of the Kegawa Herders' Cooperative, by buying their yak wool directly to create our layers.

A collective of more than 90 families in the Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, our friends live all year around at 4,500m.

We buy this wool at a set mid-market rate throughout the buying season in order to offer price certainty, and in addition we pay a 10% stipend.

Warmth and Comfort

Surprising warm and comfort, Yushu LS Zip is great for base layer and also mid layer for my usage. I've tried and compare to other product that has silver or gold kind of layer in it, can't find any different but Yushu LS Zip is more flexible and soft to the skin. I like the idea this product is supporting the local communities for Himalayan nomads, I knew where my money goes when I purchase Kora product. You guys done a great job in product but at the same time, giving back to the communities.

I want a second one!

I recently wore this on a strenuous with 3500' of gain on a day with temperatures that ranged between freezing and very low 40s. There wasn't really wind or rain, but I got quite a bit of snow falling on me from the trees most of the hike. I also tend to sweat a lot. However, this base layer managed to keep me comfortable the entire hike! I did not need to use any other layers. It has been sitting in my dirty clothes for a couple days and just smells a little funky, but only in areas that were touching other dirty clothes!

The top is beyond warm. So far it meets all my expectations. It’s too soon to tell if it will hold up to continuous wear but so far it’s holding up great.
