About Double Knit Silk

Lightweight and smooth, silk is a natural insulator that breathes exceptionally well, wicking moisture away from the skin and regulating temperature as conditions change. It glides over the body without friction making it especially kind to sensitive skin.

Our knitted silk comes in two constructions, single knit and double knit. While both are lightweight, breathable and temperature regulating, the knit changes how the fabric moves and which garments it's best suited to.

Double knit, also known as interlock silk, is made with two sets of needles that create two interlocking layers. It's slightly thicker than single knit, won't ladder, and while it has some stretch, the fabric is more structured, so it holds its shape. It comes in two weights: a lighter 95gsm for underwear and sleepwear, and a heavier 170gsm, which is better suited to outerwear.

Soft and comfortable against the skin

Silk knit combines the natural benefits of pure silk with the comfort of a jersey knit.

Pure Mulberry Silk is naturally breathable, lightweight and comfortable across the seasons. Its fine fibres benefit from gentle handling to maintain their softness and natural lustre.

To maintain its softness and drape, silk is best cared for with gentle hand washing where recommended. Always refer to the care label attached to your garment.

We dispatch every order from Nelson, New Zealand with tracked delivery, and your local postal service completes the final leg. Delivery times vary by destination, and customs processing can add a few extra days.
Our prices are in New Zealand dollars and don't include New Zealand GST. They also don't include import duties, taxes or handling fees charged in your country. If these apply, they're set by your local authorities and payable by you before or on delivery. If your parcel is genuinely lost in transit, we'll replace or refund it.

If your purchase isn't quite right, you can return it within six months for an exchange, replacement or refund. Simply return it in as-new condition with its original tags and packaging.

About NZ Nature Silk Jersey

For our silk collection, we source premium silk from China, the historic home of silk production and still the world's leading producer of high-quality silk. Silk has been cultivated there for thousands of years, and the expertise developed over generations remains unmatched.

While New Zealand produces some of the world's finest natural fibres, our climate and scale are not suited to commercial silk production. By sourcing silk from its traditional place of origin and combining it with thoughtfully designed garments, we're able to offer the natural comfort, breathability and performance that have made silk one of the world's most treasured fibres for centuries.

Pure mulberry silk

Silk is a remarkably lightweight natural fibre that helps regulate temperature while remaining soft and smooth against the skin.

Its fine fibres allow the fabric to breathe while naturally insulating, making silk comfortable across changing seasons. The delicate nature of the fibre is part of what gives silk its luxurious feel and beautiful drape.

To preserve its softness and lustre, silk benefits from careful handling and gentle washing.

Care Instructions

Please refer to the care label attached to your garment. Hand wash in cool water using a mild detergent suitable for silk. Avoid bleach, soaking and harsh agitation. Gently press out excess water and dry away from direct sunlight. Cool iron if required.

How to measure

Measure yourself rather than a garment. Use a flexible tape measure over underwear or close-fitting clothing, keeping it level and snug but not tight. If you fall between two sizes, order the larger.

Bust - Measure around the fullest part of your bust while wearing your usual bra.
Waist - Measure around your natural waistline, the narrowest point.
Hips - Measure around the fullest part of your hips and bottom, with your feet together.

Silk Wide Leg Lounge Pants

Stay comfortable in every season

Our knitted silk comes in two constructions, single knit and double knit. While both are lightweight, breathable and temperature regulating, the knit changes how the fabric moves and which garments it's best suited to.

Single knit silk is the lighter of the two. Made with a single set of needles, it's incredibly fine, a little sheer, and fits closely to the body moving with you, almost unnoticed. At 75gsm, it's a natural base layer, sitting easily under clothing.

Double knit, also known as interlock silk, is made with two sets of needles that create two interlocking layers. It's slightly thicker than single knit, won't ladder, and while it has some stretch, the fabric is more structured, so it holds its shape. It comes in two weights: a lighter 95gsm for underwear and sleepwear, and a heavier 170gsm, which is better suited to outerwear.

It comes down to what you want the layer to do.

Silk is the lightest option and close to invisible under clothing. It adds genuine thermal warmth without any bulk, which makes it ideal under work clothes, under a shirt, or for travel. Choose silk when you want warmth nobody can see.

Merino is the warmest and most hard-wearing. Our superfine and ultrafine Merino sits between 16.9 and 18 microns, so it feels soft rather than scratchy, and it's naturally odour-resistant and machine washable. It's the right choice for hiking, genuinely cold days, and everyday wear.

Bamboo is soft, stretchy and breathable, and it's our most affordable range. It's better suited to everyday comfort and sleepwear than to serious warmth.

Still unsure? Email sales@nznature.co.nz and tell us what you'll be wearing it for.

Many are, and the product page tells you which. Anything made here carries an 'NZ Made' tag — that includes our Merino from Weft and Essence Lingerie, our sheepskin slippers and boots from EB Tolley and Furmoo, and skincare from Nude Kiwi.

Some of our range is made offshore, and we're upfront about that. Silk and bamboo, for example, aren't fibres produced in New Zealand, so those garments are made overseas to our specification. We're a New Zealand company and we make here wherever we sensibly can.

If you want to know the origin of a specific item, look for the NZ Made tag on the product page, or ask us and we'll tell you.

Yes. Every product page includes a size guide with detailed measurements for that specific garment, along with a how-to-measure section so you can compare against a piece you already own. Sizing can vary slightly between styles, so we recommend checking the guide for the item you're looking at rather than assuming your usual size. If you're between sizes or unsure about fit, email sales@nznature.co.nz and our team will help you find the right one.

You can reach our team by emailing sales@nznature.co.nz or calling +64 3 9700 441 during business hours (Monday–Friday, 9am–5pm NZST). We also have a contact form on our website. We aim to respond to all enquiries within one business day.
