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.”
Hans Kihlén, 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.
BREATHABLE POLARTEC® FLEECE
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.
