EXPERIENCE THE CRAFTSMANSHIP

In the making of our Alba Balaclava

The balaclava has long been an essential saviour for alpine skiers, but recently, it has emerged as a prime fashion statement in urban settings. We have partnered with our local tailor for an exclusive collaboration. Join us in the making of the Alba balaclava — a unique, limited-edition design.

A COLLABORATION WITH OUR LOCAL TAILOR

For small-scale collections and precise tailoring, we collaborate closely with Kihléns Konfektion, a talented tailor with generations of expertise, operating from their studio in Hökerum, near the 8848 Altitude headquarters.

“Sewing with precision and passion is an inevitable success factor.”

Jerker Lidén, Head of Production, Kihléns Konfektion

 

 

 

 

FOR ON-PISTE AND URBAN SETTINGS

The balaclava is the ideal standalone and layering piece, providing warmth and stylish protection, designed for comfort with neck and front chest coverage.

The Alba balaclava ensures excellent protection from the elements, made from warming, moisture-wicking, and highly breathable Polartec® fleece with a windproof lining and a heavy-duty zipper — perfect for demanding weather conditions.
