Brown wool Adult's garment measurement guide

This is how you measure:

Measure over bare skin or thin underwear.
The easiest way to measure is with a tape measure. Make sure the tape measure is straight. It is easier to measure if you have another person with you or if you measure in front of a mirror.
If your measurements fall between the two measurements on the measurement chart, we recommend taking a smaller size as the products are strethcy.
Remember to check the measurements on the correct size chart, especially for unisex products.

Tips for choosing your size:

The measurements on the size chart are body measurements, which you can compare to find the right size.
Our products are made to Finnish measurements, which means that they are generally a little looser than e.g. European sizes. If you are deciding between two sizes, a smaller size is probably sufficient if you prefer a more fitted look.
For unisex products, we recommend that women choose one size smaller than their normal size. Also check the measurements on the size chart!
Silk wool is more elastic than wool or silk, so keep this in mind, especially when selecting adult silk wool garments.
The knit of our wool products will slightly shrink when first washed. This is taken into account in the sizing, which is slightly loose before the first wash.

Product description

Adult's merino wool balaclava

Made of smooth interlock knit, the balaclava will not itch or sweat. This practical headwear protects also cheeks, chin and neck. Balaclava fits snugly under a hat, cap or helmet and keeps you comfortably warm for all winter activities.

Made of undyed 100% certified organic merino wool. Pure wool regulates the body temperature, breathes well and keeps you warm even when damp. It neutralises odours and does not need to be washed often. Pure wool is also a fire-safe material.

Handmade in Artjärvi, Finland. No need to wash before use.

Wash and care instructions

No washing is required before first use
Wool softens in the first wash, which increases comfort of use especially on a sensitive skin
Wool neutralises odours, and often just airing is enough to clean
After regular use, the garment should be washed, as washing helps the wool fibres to recover and retain their elasticity
Our wool products are not treated with a moth repellent, so remember to protect the wool product from moths and beetles. When not in constant use, store wool products in a sealed plastic bag, e.g. in the product's original package
Wash by hand or by using the 30 Celsius degree hand or wool wash program using a biodegradable wool washing detergent
We recommend the Sonett wool and silk washing liquid for washing and Sonett gall soap for stain removal
Reshape the garment immediately after washing
Wool shrinks slightly in the first wash, which has been taken into account in the sizing of the products

Adult's merino wool balaclava

Wool - warmth developed by sheep

The sheep, who have for millennia lived in vastly different living and weather conditions, have taken care of product development process for us. Us humans can also benefit from the fact that wool keeps you warm in the cool climate and feels cool during warm weather. All this is thanks to the curly texture of the fiber.

Especially in winter, it is advisable to wear warm and breathable merino wool as a base layer next to the skin. Wool can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture, such as sweat or rain, without feeling wet. The surface of wool is naturally antibacterial, dirt-repellent, and neutralizes odors like sweat. Refreshing it only requires airing out, and it doesn't require frequent washing. Compared to synthetic fibers, wool is also a very fire-safe material – all important qualities when choosing clothes for an active lifestyle.

Handmade in Artjärvi, Finland

As we open the door and step inside the lower floor of the Old Dairy, the room is filled with a soft steady whir, paced by a faster buzz, click and then another buzz. Some twenty seamstresses are working. This is where the heart of Ruskovilla is.

To guarantee high quality, we have never wanted to outsource our production, but have made it transparent. Our products are designed and manufactured in Finland with over 40 years of experience. As a sign of this, our products have been awarded the Finnish Key Flag label.
