BLANKET#3 Undyed Gray Yak

DESCRIPTION 
JAN JAN VAN ESSCHE 2023-24 Autumn Winter Collection.

A knit blanket worn as the 6th LOOK in the 23-24AW collection, which debuted at Italy's PITTI UOMO with the brand's first runway show.

Made from the wool of the yak, a bovine animal inhabiting harsh terrains at altitudes exceeding 3000 meters, yak wool is a high-end material comparable to cashmere, while it's said to surpass cashmere in heat retention.

While hand-knitted wear is the brand's mainstay, this blanket is machine-knitted, enabling the use of 100% yak wool while maintaining a relatively reasonable price.
