KERO DESIGN

High-end and responsible knitwear brand combining traditions and consciousness. Inspired by the wonderful magic of Peru, the home country to female founder Mariela Gonzales. 

 

Kero's collections are inspired by the infinite textures and colors of traditional Peruvian crafts such as basketry, embroidery or the loom, creating versatile, unisex pieces with a contemporary design.
They use locally sourced materials of top quality such as wool, produced in the heart of the Peruvian Andean highlands, and soft cotton from the north coast.

A large part of their yarns are dyed and hand-painted exclusively. Kero works with artisan knitting machines (without electricity) and with knitting or crochet needles, paying special attention to details and hand details.
