{"product_id":"aikuss-wollen-polswarmers-multi-pure-alpaca","title":"AIKUSS wool wrist warmers MULTI pure alpaca","description":"\u003ch2\u003eAIKUSS MULTI wrist warmers: warm hands, free fingers, and a good dose of color\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCold hands, stiff fingers, that nasty draft between your coat and sleeve... no thanks, we’re not having any of that. The AIKUSS MULTI wrist warmers are exactly the kind of little invention that makes you wonder: why didn't I have these sooner? They keep your wrists and a large part of your hands wonderfully warm, but your fingers remain free. So you can still type, cycle, text, pay by card, look for your keys, hold a coffee, and do all those other things for which mittens are sometimes just inconvenient.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese wrist warmers are made from 100% baby alpaca. Soft, warm, light, and incredibly pleasant to wear. And then those colors! The MULTI version has a rich blend of blue, purple, rust, orange, petrol, ocher, and a small streak of light. It’s as if little pieces of the Peruvian landscape run through the knit. Not bland, not boring, but very wearable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAIKUSS is new at Natur-el, and we are super proud of it. We discovered the brand at the very last minute during our buying trip, tucked away in a small corner, by a lovely 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 store in the Netherlands selling AIKUSS. Extra special, therefore.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy you want these wrist warmers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWrist warmers are THE solution if your hands or fingers get cold easily but you don't feel like wearing gloves that prevent you from doing anything. Because your wrists stay warm, your whole hand often feels more comfortable. Sounds like a small thing, but just try it during a cold workday behind your laptop or while cycling against the wind. Then you'll understand immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese AIKUSS wrist warmers have a thumb hole, which keeps them nicely in place. They are about 23 cm long and have a width of about 9.5 cm. This allows them to cover your wrist and part of your forearm without feeling bulky or heavy. They are unisex and one size, making them suitable for both women and men.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAlso beautiful as an accessory\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf course, they are practical, but honestly: they are just beautiful too. Because of the special colors and the rich knit, these wrist warmers are not just a warm layer, but also an accessory. Wear them under a coat so that just a hint of color is visible, or combine them with a simple sweater for a little extra flair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExtra fun: there is also a matching hat in stock. So if you like a set that isn't too formal, but does look perfectly coordinated, that is a very nice combination. Warm head, warm wrists, ready for the cold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterial \u0026amp; care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AIKUSS MULTI wrist warmers are made of 100% baby alpaca. Baby alpaca does not mean the wool comes from baby alpacas, but refers to the fine, soft quality of the fiber. The material feels light, warm, and soft, and is often 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, airing them out is enough. Lay the wrist warmers near an open window overnight or outside in a dry place, and they usually freshen up on their own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDo they need to be washed after all? Then use a wool detergent like \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.natur-el.nl\/lanalicious-wolwasmiddel.html\"\u003eLanalicious\u003c\/a\u003e, wash by hand in cold water or on a very gentle wool cycle, and let them dry flat. Do not wring, do not tumble dry, and do not place on the heater. Baby alpaca is luxury, so treat it with a little love.\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 can form after use. That is normal and does not mean your wrist warmers are of poor quality. Avoid picking them off with your fingers, as you will pull out fibers. Use a Gleener to gently 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. These wrist warmers are made 100% fair trade, and that fits exactly with why we wanted to include this brand in our collection. They are not anonymous accessories from a mass production line, but small, warm works of art with a story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat we find extra beautiful: with AIKUSS, we are supporting a female entrepreneur from Peru who is building her own label. And because Natur-el is her first customer in the Netherlands, you are wearing something that you won't find just everywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to use these wrist warmers?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1. Behind your laptop:\u003c\/strong\u003e ideal if your hands get cold while working but your fingers need to be free to type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2. On the bike:\u003c\/strong\u003e wear them as an extra warm layer against the wind around your wrists. Especially nice if your coat doesn't quite seal at the cuffs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e3. As a set:\u003c\/strong\u003e combine them with the matching hat for a warm, colorful winter look without it looking frumpy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDon't buy if...\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAre you looking for full gloves where your fingertips are also covered? Then wrist warmers are not what you are looking for. These primarily keep your wrists, the back of your hands, and part of your palms warm, while your fingers remain free. But if you want warmth, freedom of movement, and a beautiful accessory all in one? Then these are truly wonderful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePersonal advice, or doubts about the color?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAre you unsure if these wrist warmers go with your coat, sweater, or hat?
