Product Information
Full details
The Sessùn Solta Balaclava is designed for adults seeking a sophisticated, multi-functional cold-weather accessory that prioritizes both style and ethical sourcing. Made from 100% premium wool, this ribbed knit piece provides exceptional warmth and versatility by functioning as both a traditional head-covering balaclava and a wrap-around scarf. While it offers superior thermal insulation, users should note that as a pure wool product, it requires gentle hand washing and air drying to maintain its shape and integrity.

FAQs
Is the wool ethically sourced?
Yes, the Sessùn Solta is manufactured using wool fibers from sheep reared in accordance with strict animal welfare and land management practices.
Can I put this in the washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it will likely damage the 100% wool construction and cause the piece to shrink.
Does it fit all head sizes?
The ribbed knit design offers significant natural stretch, allowing it to provide a comfortable fit for most adult head sizes.
Can I wear this as a scarf?
Yes, the product is specifically designed with two panels that allow it to be tied and worn effectively as a scarf when not being used as a balaclava.
What is the best way to prevent pilling?
Avoid excessive friction and follow hand-washing instructions carefully. If light pilling occurs, use a specialized wool comb to gently remove surface fibers.
Troubleshooting
The wool feels slightly itchy against the skin
Ensure that a base layer or high-neck garment is worn underneath, or try washing the piece with a wool-specific fabric softener to soften the fibers.
The balaclava has lost its shape after washing
Gently reshape the garment while it is still damp and lay it perfectly flat on a drying rack. Do not wring or twist the knit.

Care Instructions
