Not just a little happy, but the \"wait a minute, why didn't I know about this yet?\" kind of happy. That’s how we felt about AIKUSS. We discovered this special brand during a buying trip, actually at the very last moment, in a small corner. There stood an incredibly sweet woman from Peru with her own collection. Colorful, warm, soft, spirited, and so different from everything we already knew.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!--en--\u003e\u003cp\u003eAIKUSS is an ethical and sustainable fashion brand, founded by designer Ana Fernández. The brand is known for luxury knitwear made from Peruvian alpaca wool, combining traditional Andean craftsmanship with timeless, conscious fashion. And you can feel it. These aren’t your average sweaters or cardigans. These are garments with character, color, and a story.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!--en--\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePeruvian alpaca wool, Andean colors, and exceptional craftsmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003c!--en--\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AIKUSS collection consists primarily of pure alpaca and baby alpaca, sometimes combined with high-quality cotton. The designs are inspired by the culture, nature, and textile traditions of the Andes. Think vivid colors, undulating patterns, intricate jacquard weaves, and knits that just make you want to keep looking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!--en--\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat I personally love about AIKUSS is that the brand doesn't try to be politely or invisibly sustainable. Not at all—this is sustainability with color. Sustainability with guts. Sustainability with a story. The sweaters and cardigans feature combinations that make you think: I would never have thought of this myself, but now I want to wear it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!--en--\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy alpaca is so wonderful\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003c!--en--\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlpaca is a beautiful natural material. It is warm, soft, strong, and light all at once. Alpaca wool is naturally breathable, wrinkle-resistant, and has amazing thermal insulation. It sounds technical, but it really just means this: you stay comfortably warm without your sweater feeling heavy or stuffy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!--en--\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlso great: alpaca is often worn comfortably by people who find regular wool itchy. I can’t promise that nobody will ever feel anything, because every skin is different, but alpaca is known as a soft, luxury fiber with great wearing comfort. And believe it or not: you hardly ever have to wash an alpaca sweater. Letting it air out outside is often enough. That makes alpaca not just great for you, but also for your wardrobe, your water consumption, and the longevity of your sweater.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!--en--\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHandmade details you don't see everywhere\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003c!--en--\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith AIKUSS, you can see the care put into it. Not just in the material, but also in the finishing. Some cardigans, for example, have handmade details like hand-crocheted buttons or subtle finishes that give the garment that little bit extra. Precisely those kinds of details make a sweater or cardigan special. Not flashy, but certainly unique.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!--en--\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd that is also why AIKUSS fits so well with Natur-el. We love clothing that you want to look at for longer. Clothing that isn't just beautiful on a hanger, but that makes you happy the moment you put it on. Warm, colorful, soft, and made with love.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!--en--\u003e\u003ch2\u003eExclusive to Natur-el in the Netherlands\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003c!--en--\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd now for the best part: Natur-el is the first customer for AIKUSS in the Netherlands. We are secretly quite proud of that. Because yes, of course we could choose the safe path. Choose brands that everyone already knows. But sometimes you have to make room for a new label, a woman with a dream, and a collection that makes your heart skip a beat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!--en--\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt Natur-el, you'll find AIKUSS because it perfectly aligns with what we stand for: honest materials, special clothing, personal choices, and fashion that doesn't feel like it rolled out of an anonymous factory. Clothing with warmth. Literally and figuratively.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!--en--\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho is AIKUSS for?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003c!--en--\u003e\u003cp\u003eAIKUSS is for women and men who love color, comfort, and natural materials. For people looking for an alpaca sweater or wool cardigan that isn't run-of-the-mill. For those who would rather buy one special piece of clothing that will make them happy for years, instead of five fast-fashion sweaters that are already looking sad in the closet after one season.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!--en--\u003e\u003cp\u003eSo yes, AIKUSS might not be the cheapest brand in your closet. But honestly? It doesn't have to be. Because when a sweater is made of luxury Peruvian alpaca wool, with traditional craftsmanship, ethical choices, and so much love for color and detail, you understand why such a garment has value.

The cardigan is available in S\/M and L\/XL and has a relaxed fit. If in doubt, choose the smaller size for something more compact and the larger size for extra loose and cozy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat material is EMILIA made of?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cardigan is made of 89% pure alpaca and 11% polyamide. Alpaca provides softness, warmth, and a light feel. The polyamide gives the knit extra strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the AIKUSS EMILIA cardigan fair trade?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, EMILIA is 100% fair trade. AIKUSS works with a focus on craftsmanship, nature, and the Peruvian textile tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I have to wash this alpaca cardigan?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePreferably as little as possible. Alpaca naturally has self-cleaning properties. Often, airing it out is enough. Wash only when absolutely necessary, using wool detergent, and let it dry flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs AIKUSS exclusively available at Natur-el?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, Natur-el is the first customer of AIKUSS in the Netherlands and currently the only store in the Netherlands that sells this special brand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs there also a sweater version of this model?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, we also have the same model as a sweater.

The AIKUSS LORI is exactly that kind of sweater. Fluffy, soft, wonderfully warm, comfortably loose, and in colors that instantly cheer you up. It’s not some shy basic that disappears quietly into your wardrobe, but a sweater with character. Exactly how we like it at Natur-el.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLORI comes in two beautiful color combinations. The teal variant has a fresh, edgy vibe, with that deep teal shade as a base and lovely accents in green, purple, and pink. The pink version is more pronounced and cheerful, with orange, green, yellow, and blue woven throughout the pattern. Both are colorful, both are special, yet they offer very different moods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAIKUSS is new at Natur-el and we are truly proud of it. We discovered the brand at the very last minute during a buying trip, in a small corner, from an incredibly lovely woman from Peru who started her own label. AIKUSS is woman-owned, inspired by the landscapes and rich textile tradition of Peru, and Natur-el is her first customer in the Netherlands. In fact, we are the only store in the Netherlands that sells AIKUSS. That makes this sweater not just beautiful, but truly exclusive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy you want this sweater\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe LORI is made from 89% pure alpaca and 11% polyamide. That alpaca provides the soft, light, and warm feeling you’ll want to live in. The polyamide gives the knit some extra durability, so the sweater keeps its shape better and you can enjoy it for longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat I love so much about this sweater is that your outfit is essentially ready to go immediately. You don’t need complicated styling tricks. A pair of black trousers, jeans, a simple skirt, or wide-leg pants underneath, and you're set. The sweater does the rest. And yes, it is sooooo fluffy and soft. It’s truly the kind of sweater you automatically run your hand over when you’re in the store.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFit \u0026amp; styling\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AIKUSS LORI is available in two sizes: S\/M and L\/XL. The sweater is relatively loose and has a relaxed, comfortable fit. It doesn't hug your body tightly but has a nice, relaxed drape. Are you between sizes? Choose S\/M if you prefer to wear it a bit more compact, and L\/XL if you love that spacious, cozy sweater feeling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe length hits nicely at the hip, making the sweater easy to combine with both trousers and skirts. The ribbed cuffs on the sleeves and bottom provide just enough structure without making the whole piece feel tight. And an extra bonus: we have the same model available as a cardigan. So, if you're in love with the pattern but prefer to wear layers, the cardigan is definitely worth checking out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterial \u0026amp; care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlpaca is a beautiful natural material. It is warm, soft, lightweight, and often less itchy than regular wool. This makes this sweater perfect for crisp days when you want warmth but don't want a heavy or stiff knit. The texture is fluffy and lively, which is inherent to this type of natural knitwear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWashing? Better to avoid doing it too often. Alpaca and wool have natural self-cleaning properties. Often, airing it out is enough. Hang the sweater outside for a night or near an open window and it usually feels fresh again. That’s better for your sweater, better for the fibers, and better for the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDoes the sweater need a wash? Use a special wool detergent like \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.natur-el.nl\/lanalicious-wolwasmiddel.html\"\u003eLanalicious\u003c\/a\u003e, wash cold or on a wool cycle, and always lay the sweater flat to dry.

Pilling is normal with wool, alpaca, and other soft natural fibers. It doesn't mean your sweater is of poor quality; it actually means you are wearing a truly fluffy natural material.

The shades are deep and slightly muted. This makes the sweater distinctive without making it look like you're heading to a tacky Christmas sweater party.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe pattern consists of various geometric shapes reminiscent of mountains, clouds, water, and traditional Peruvian weaving patterns. It runs across the front, back, and sleeves, making MATEO beautiful from every angle. Always nice for the people walking behind you, too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow does the AIKUSS MATEO fit?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c!--nl-- \u003e\u003cp\u003eMATEO is designed as a \u003cstrong\u003emen's sweater\u003c\/strong\u003e and has a straight, comfortable fit. The sweater follows the body nicely without being tight. Therefore, you should generally choose the men's size you normally wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe round neck is finished with a sturdy ribbed trim. The sleeves and hem also feature wide ribbed cuffs, which keep the sweater nicely in place and prevent it from hanging down shapelessly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAre you hesitating between two sizes or do you want to know how a specific size fits? Please contact us. We would be happy to measure the sweater for you. After all, measuring is a lot more useful than having a long discussion at home about a sleeve that turns out to be just a little too short.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWarm without being heavy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlpaca retains a lot of heat but is relatively light in weight. This makes MATEO feel cozy without the sensation of carrying an entire sheep—or in this case, an alpaca—on your shoulders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe fibers are capable of retaining warmth while simultaneously absorbing and wicking away moisture. That makes this men's sweater great for cold days, drafty houses, winter walks, and offices where nobody can ever agree on the thermostat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to style MATEO WINE\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe deep colors make this alpaca sweater surprisingly easy to combine. With dark denim, as shown in the photo, the rust and wine red stand out beautifully. The sweater also looks great with dark blue or brown chinos, black trousers, or calm anthracite-colored dress pants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause MATEO has so much character on its own, you don't need to do much else. A good pair of trousers, simple shoes, and you're set. It looks like you put a lot of thought into your outfit, while the sweater actually does all the work. Ideal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003e100% pure alpaca\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMATEO is made of \u003cstrong\u003e100% pure alpaca\u003c\/strong\u003e. Alpaca fibers are soft, light, strong, and highly insulating. Alpaca is naturally free of lanolin and is experienced by many as being softer than regular sheep's wool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhether a wool sweater feels comfortable remains a personal matter, of course. Are you very sensitive to wool? Then wear MATEO over a thin cotton shirt, a wool-silk undershirt, or a long-sleeve tee. You are, of course, also welcome to come feel and try on the sweater at our store in Rotterdam first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to care for a pure alpaca sweater?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePreferably, wash MATEO as little as possible. Alpaca doesn't easily absorb odors, and airing it out overnight is usually sufficient. Hang the sweater outside or by an open window, let it refresh, and then fold it back into the closet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDoes the sweater need to be washed? Wash it carefully and follow the care label. Use cold water and a special alpaca detergent without lanolin, such as \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/natur-el.nl\/products\/washpaca-wasmiddel-voor-alpaca-zonder-lanoline\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWashpaca\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e. Alpaca doesn't contain lanolin, so it doesn't need a detergent with added lanolin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDo not rub, do not wring, and never tumble dry. Gently reshape the damp sweater and let it dry flat on a towel. Store MATEO folded as well. A wool sweater can stretch out at the shoulders or in length if hung on a clothes hanger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePilling with alpaca is normal\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith soft natural fibers, small pills or balls can form due to friction. You usually see this first under the arms, along the sides, or in places where a coat or bag rubs against the sweater. This does not mean the alpaca is of poor quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDo not pull the pills off with your fingers, as you might pull new fibers out of the knit.

The name primarily refers to the fine, soft quality of the fibers. Baby alpaca feels smoother and softer than many coarser wool types and has a light, natural sheen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlpaca fibers retain heat well but are much lighter than you would expect from such a warm sweater. Furthermore, alpaca is naturally free of lanolin. This can be pleasant if you are sensitive to sheep's wool, although every skin is, of course, different.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe story behind AIKUSS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAIKUSS is inspired by the landscapes and rich knitting culture of Peru. The brand was founded by Peruvian Ana Fernández and combines traditional influences with wearable, modern designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe discovered AIKUSS during our buying trip, at the very end of the day. No massive booth or smooth sales pitch, but a small corner, beautiful sweaters, and a woman who spoke about her brand with so much love. Those are exactly the stories we like to make space for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAIKUSS is \u003cstrong\u003ewoman-owned\u003c\/strong\u003e, works according to fairtrade principles, and has its collection made in Peru. Natur-el became the brand's first Dutch customer and is currently the only store in the Netherlands where you can buy AIKUSS. Quite special.

On dark blue jeans, the colors in the pattern come together beautifully. But ZIGZAG JEANS also looks lovely with olive green, gray, brown, natural tones, or a quiet wool dress pant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the pattern already has so much color and character, the rest of your outfit doesn't need to be complicated. A good pair of trousers, nice shoes, and you're ready to go. It will look like you put in a lot of effort, while the sweater does all the work for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eYou almost never have to wash an alpaca sweater\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlpaca does not easily absorb odors. Therefore, just let the sweater air out for a night after wearing it. Outside in the fresh air or inside by an open window is usually sufficient. Washing is only truly necessary when the sweater is visibly dirty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDoes it need to be washed after all? Wash your ZIGZAG carefully by hand in cold water.

Keep your head warm, done. But then again, why would you choose a boring hat when you could choose this AIKUSS MULTI beanie? This is one of those hats that instantly makes you happy. Soft, warm, colorful, and just a little different from everything else you see out there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MULTI beanie is made of 100% baby alpaca. That means it feels wonderfully soft, is nice and warm, yet remains light to wear. The colors are truly magnificent: blue, purple, rust, orange, petrol, ocher, and a touch of light blended together in a rich knit. It’s almost reminiscent of a sunset over a Peruvian landscape. But on your head. And honestly, we can't help but be enthusiastic about that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAIKUSS is new to Natur-el and we are incredibly proud of it. We discovered the brand at the very last moment while buying, in a small corner, from an incredibly sweet woman from Peru who started her own label. AIKUSS is woman-owned, fair trade, and inspired by the landscapes and rich textile tradition of Peru. Natur-el is her first customer in the Netherlands and currently the only shop in the Netherlands that sells AIKUSS. So yes, this hat is not only beautiful but also truly special.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy you want this hat\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause your head deserves warmth, but so does your outfit. This beanie is warm enough for cold days, but not one of those heavy hats you regret wearing after ten minutes. Baby alpaca is light, soft, and comfortable. The material feels luxurious without becoming overly formal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes this hat so fun is that it adds something immediately. With a dark coat, you suddenly get a pop of color. With a simple sweater, your outfit gets more character. And it's a real treat with the matching wrist warmers. Not just a neat set as if your grandmother picked it out for you, but a warm, artistic combination with spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFit \u0026amp; size\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AIKUSS MULTI beanie is unisex and one size. The hat is approximately 21 cm wide and approximately 25 cm high. This means it fits nicely on the head without being overly tight. The shape is classic and easy to wear, but the color gradient and the structure make it look very special.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hat can be worn by both women and men. The colors are bold, but because of the deep base of blue and purple, it remains surprisingly easy to combine. That is exactly what makes it so great: cheerful, but not childish. Colorful, but not hysterical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterial \u0026amp; care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis AIKUSS hat is made of 100% baby alpaca. Baby alpaca doesn't mean the wool comes from baby alpacas, but refers to the fine, soft quality of the fiber. The material is warm, light, and often more pleasant for people who find regular wool too itchy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWashing is almost never necessary. Really. Alpaca has natural self-cleaning properties. Often, just airing it out is enough. Leave the hat out by an open window or outside in a dry place overnight, and it usually refreshes on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDoes the hat need to be washed after all? Use a wool detergent like \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.natur-el.nl\/lanalicious-wolwasmiddel.html\"\u003eLanalicious\u003c\/a\u003e, wash cold by hand or on a very delicate wool cycle, and let the hat dry flat.

They can therefore be worn by both women and men.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs there a matching hat?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, there is also a matching hat in stock. Fun if you want to create a warm set with the same rich colors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I have to wash baby alpaca wrist warmers?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePreferably as little as possible. Alpaca has natural self-cleaning properties. Often, airing them is enough. Only wash if absolutely necessary, using wool detergent, and let them dry flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs AIKUSS exclusively available at Natur-el?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, Natur-el is the first customer of AIKUSS in the Netherlands and currently the only store in the Netherlands selling this special brand.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AIKUSS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54318162018643,"sku":null,"price":44.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1059\/6525\/7043\/files\/aikuss-polswarmers-pure-alpaca-multi-rotterdam-1.jpg?v=1784139882"},{"product_id":"copy-of-aikuss-korte-polswarmers-100-baby-alpaca-m","title":"AIKUSS short wrist warmers 100% baby alpaca ALESSIA","description":"\u003ch2\u003eAIKUSS short wrist warmers: small heaters with a big effect\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSometimes it's the little things that make you the happiest. The short wrist warmers from AIKUSS are a perfect example of that. They are soft, warm, colorful, and surprisingly handy. Not those huge mittens that make it impossible to do anything, but lovely short warmers made of 100% baby alpaca that leave your hands completely free.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd believe me: once you've discovered wrist warmers, you'll suddenly understand why people keep wearing them. Behind your laptop, on your bike, in the shop, while reading on the couch, or simply as a cheerful accessory for your outfit. I like using them myself when I'm at my PC and get cold hands. Your fingers stay free, but your wrists stay nice and warm. And that really makes a difference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAIKUSS is a new brand at Natur-el and we are incredibly proud of it. We discovered it at the very last minute during our buying trip, in a small corner, from an incredibly lovely woman from Peru who started her own label. AIKUSS is woman-owned, inspired by the landscapes and rich textile tradition of Peru, and Natur-el is her first customer in the Netherlands. In fact, we are the only store in the Netherlands that sells AIKUSS. How great is that?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy you want these short wrist warmers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese wrist warmers are made of 100% baby alpaca. That means: soft, light, warm, and wonderfully comfortable. Baby alpaca does not come from baby alpacas, but refers to the fine, soft quality of the fiber. And you can feel it. They are warm without being heavy and soft without that woolly itchy feeling that some people can't stand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wrist warmers are available in various colors, patterns, and lengths. Some are about 10 cm long, others are shorter and are around 6 cm. This allows you to choose what you like: a slightly more generous model that covers more of your wrist, or a super-short model that works primarily as a warm and colorful accent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThey are also really fun as an accessory\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf course, wrist warmers are practical, but these are also just beautiful. AIKUSS uses unique color combinations and patterns inspired by Peru, nature, and textile tradition. As a result, they feel much less like a \"functional winter item\" and much more like a small styling detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWear them under a coat so that just a hint of color is visible. Or with a sweater with slightly shorter sleeves. Or just indoors, when your outfit could use a little something extra. The shorter models in particular are beautiful as an accessory. A small piece of alpaca, but a lot of atmosphere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePractical for cold hands, cycling, and working\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat I personally love: your hands stay free. You can type, use your phone, hold a cup of tea, pay with a card, search for keys in your bag, and just do what you need to do. But because your wrists stay warm, the rest of your hand often feels much less cold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey are also handy on the bike as an extra windstopper under your jacket or gloves. Especially when your sleeves crawl up just a bit, you know that? Then a nasty cold draft blows in right at your wrist. These wrist warmers solve that nicely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterial \u0026amp; care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AIKUSS short wrist warmers are made of 100% baby alpaca and are 100% fair trade. Alpaca is a beautiful natural material: warm, soft, light, and breathable. Because these wrist warmers are made of baby alpaca, they feel extra fine and luxurious.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWashing is almost never necessary. Really. Alpaca has natural self-cleaning properties. Often, airing them out is enough. Lay or hang them out by an open window for a night, and they usually freshen up on their own. That is better for the fibers, better for the environment, and, of course, nice and easy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDo they need to be washed after all? Do it carefully with a wool detergent like \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.natur-el.nl\/lanalicious-wolwasmiddel.html\"\u003eLanalicious\u003c\/a\u003e. Wash cold by hand or on a very gentle wool cycle and let them dry lying flat. Do not wring, do not tumble dry, and do not place them on the radiator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIndispensable: the Gleener for your alpaca accessories\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith soft natural fibers like alpaca, small pills may form after use. This is normal and does not mean your wrist warmers are of poor quality. It's better not to pick them with your fingers, as you will pull fibers loose. Use a Gleener to carefully remove pills and keep your wrist warmers looking nice. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.natur-el.nl\/gleener-pluizenkam-voor-het-ontpillen-van-wollen-k.html\"\u003eOrder your Gleener here\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSustainable \u0026amp; fair\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAIKUSS works with respect for nature, craftsmanship, and the Peruvian textile tradition. The patterns and colors are not standard, but truly feel like small pieces of textile art. And because these wrist warmers are made 100% fair trade, you are wearing something warm with an honest story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat we think is extra nice: with AIKUSS we are supporting a female entrepreneur from Peru who is building her own brand. No mass production, no accessory you see everywhere, but something special and exclusive. Only at Natur-el in the Netherlands. That makes us very happy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow do you wear them?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1.

Then these short wrist warmers are not intended as a complete replacement. They leave your fingers free. But do you want soft warmth at your wrists, more comfort while typing or cycling, and a nice color accent for your outfit?
