Beautiful chunky balaclava knit in cosy highland wool. Perfect for those cold winter days, for all weather cyclists, winter explorers and more. So warm and toasty!

Andean highland wool comes from a crossbreed sheep that lives at high altitudes over 2000ft in the Peruvian Andes and is managed by traditional shepherds in the high country. The sheep is a cross between Merino and Corriedale and the wool is characterised as soft and thick with exceptional strength, elasticity and warmth. With care, my alpaca Copenhagen garments will become heirloom pieces that you will pass down through the generations.
