Balaclava camel wool

Wool is the best natural renewable fiber that keeps you warm even when wet. It can absorb and wick away moisture from the skin, therefore anything knitted from this wool breathes and sweat doesn't make you feel cold like synthetic or cotton fibre.

The Mongolian bactrian - two-humped camel has really fine and soft fur. It lives on Gobi steppe, where the temperature can drop to -35°C in winter. Its wool is much warmer than merino wool due to its long fiber.

We recommend to wash the balaclava as less as possible. If possible do not wash. Wool contains lanolin (animal fat), which acts as a natural impregnation, i.e. repels dirt and impurities from the surface of the fabric. Anything made from wool doesn't get dirty as quickly. Simply wipe it off or let it air out in the fresh air. If you have to wash, preferably by hand wool detergent. We recommend reading more about the care instructions here.

The Mongolian bactrian (two-humped) camel lives in Gobi steppe with extreme conditions (-35°C) and have extremely warm wool which has a much longer fiber than, for example, merino. They have a very fine and soft coat.

Anything made from this premium wool will keep you warm and dry just as the wool itself will keep the Mongolian camels.
