This cosy headband is the epitome of Sherpa Adventure Gear’s authentic Himalayan heritage. With a name that means ‘all-knowing’, the Kunchen headband channels the traditional culture of Nepal through its plait detailing and vibrant colourways. The perfect headwear for seasonal adventures, it is knitted from super-soft lambswool with a polyester polar fleece lining. That means it will provide plenty of warmth whilst also wicking away moisture to prevent it from getting too sweaty or itchy. Each headband is handcrafted in small women co-ops in the ancient city of Bhaktapur, right outside Kathmandu.
A small brand with a great big heart, and every authentic garment made-for trekking, travelling and exploring the world— reflects their Himalayan homeland.
For hundreds of years, Sherpas have searched for the most beautiful ways to stay warm, dry and comfortable in the highest mountains on earth. So today, naturally, Sherpa embrace the latest technical materials and designs, they test out gear in the Himalayas for your greater well-being, they also weave into every garment a rich heritage of time-honoured beliefs and humility. It is an odyssey of their heart.
