This garment is a Woollykins shop second. What makes it a second? It’s in brand-new condition but may have arrived with minor faults, slight damage, missing packaging, or small imperfections that set it apart.
We have assessed the garment and mended it in house and is part of our new Circular clothing initiative *reNEWool* that finds a new home for preloved, seconds Woollykins clothing, keeping textiles out of landfill and promotes the benefits of mending. Loved clothes last!
As part of our Seconds/Mended Collection, each garment has been carefully mended by Brenna, who has dedicated her time to restoring a high-quality faulty Woollykins piece - ensuring it can be cherished and worn for years to come.
Approximate hours spent mending: 0.5
*Seconds/Mended condition: Woollykins shop second - Brand New, one small hole located by the fork of the thumb and finger that has been mended (see photos).
Original listing Information below:
Soft and fluffy in texture, these arm warmers from Nishiguchi Kutsushita Japan are light-weight yet incredibly warm. Finally, fingerless gloves that keep your arms warm too! Nishiguchi Kutsushita have selected wool made from exceptionally fine fibres measuring an average of 16 micron which is equivalent to that of cashmere. This soft and luxurious wool is produced from sheep bred in the area surrounding New Zealand’s Mount Cook situated on the length of the Southern Island. These finger-free arm and hand warmers have natural elasticity and softness similar to cashmere; they are sleek yet incredibly soft and fluffy, enveloping the arms, hands and even most of the fingers, leaving only the tips for easy use of your hands.
