APU KUNTUR LUNA wrist warmers in 100% baby alpaca
Cold hands while typing, cycling, shopping, or walking the dog? Then these APU KUNTUR LUNA wrist warmers are the perfect solution. They keep your hands and wrists warm while leaving your fingers free. This means you can keep working, texting, writing, or rummaging through your bag without constantly having to take your gloves off.
And let's be honest: we’re happy to wear them just for the look. The colorful LUNA knit is far too fun to see merely as a practical solution. Warm shades of red, green, ocher, pink, and blue blend beautifully together. But you probably think so too, otherwise you wouldn't have clicked on them ;-)

Warm hands without clumsy fingers
Wrist warmers are also known as fingerless gloves or hand warmers. They cover your wrists, part of your forearms, and the majority of your hands. Thanks to the thumb hole, they stay neatly in place while your fingers retain full freedom of movement.
They are ideal when you work at a computer a lot and get cold hands easily. They are also incredibly convenient while cycling, driving, grocery shopping, or walking the dog. Pull them under the sleeves of your coat, and you’ll be instantly rid of that icy wind that would otherwise blow straight inside.
On really cold days, you can even wear the wrist warmers under looser mittens. An extra layer of baby alpaca might sound a bit luxurious, but once you’ve tried it, you’ll understand why we are so enthusiastic about it.
The colors of the LUNA collection
The LUNA wrist warmers are finely knit in a colorful jacquard pattern. The different bands consist of small geometric shapes in warm, natural tones. The pattern is lively, yet easy to wear thanks to the harmonious color combination.
Combine them with a neutral coat or sweater in green, camel, gray, dark blue, or black. Or simply put on even more color. No one has ever become less cheerful from that.
Combine with the other LUNA accessories
The LUNA wrist warmers are part of a complete series from APU KUNTUR. In the same colorful knit, we offer a LUNA scarf, hat, ear warmer, and leg warmers, among others. All colors are coordinated so that you can easily mix and match the accessories.
The wrist warmers are a nice splash of color on their own, but combined with the matching scarf or hat, it naturally becomes a celebration. Also very suitable as a gift. You can start with one accessory and save the rest for a future birthday. Or give everything at once and crown yourself the best gift-giver of the year.
What makes baby alpaca so special?
Baby alpaca is among the finest and softest of alpaca fibers. The name refers to the fineness of the fiber and does not automatically mean the wool comes exclusively from young alpacas.
The fibers are light, smooth, and temperature-regulating. They retain heat well while remaining breathable. As a result, these wool wrist warmers provide plenty of warmth without feeling thick, heavy, or clammy.
Alpaca wool naturally contains no lanolin. Many people who find regular wool itchy or are sensitive to wool wax often find alpaca comfortable. Every skin reacts differently, of course, so we can never promise that no one will feel anything. But baby alpaca is truly one of the softest types of wool in our collection.
Fair Trade made in Peru
APU KUNTUR has the LUNA accessories produced Fair Trade in Peru. In the Andes, there is a long tradition of working with alpaca wool and refined knitting techniques. You can see that knowledge in the detailed jacquard pattern and the beautiful finish.
By choosing 100% baby alpaca and careful craftsmanship, we create wrist warmers that are meant to be worn often and for a long time. Not an accessory that disappears into a drawer after one winter, but one you’ll reach for every cold day.
What size are the LUNA wrist warmers?
The APU KUNTUR LUNA wrist warmers are one size. The knit is supple and conforms nicely to the hands and wrists. The snug ribbed cuff helps prevent the wrist warmers from sliding while being worn.
The total length is approximately 18 cm. As a result, they cover not only your hands but also part of your wrists and forearms.
How do you care for baby alpaca wrist warmers?
Alpaca almost never needs to be washed. Hang the wrist warmers outside or by an open window after wearing. The fibers hardly absorb odors and thus easily freshen up on their own.
Do you want to wash them anyway? Then use cold water or a maximum of 30 degrees and a small amount of special detergent for alpaca, such as Washpaca. Avoid using detergents with added lanolin, as alpaca does not naturally contain lanolin.
Wash gently by hand or only use a wool wash program if the care label allows it. Do not wring, do not tumble dry, and do not hang to dry when wet. Gently press the water out of the wrist warmers, reshape them, and let them dry flat. Yes, we are a bit strict about washing. But for a good reason :-)
