Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Brushed Cashmere Balaclava Le 31 Studio Capsule: Choose this if you want a one-size brushed cashmere balaclava made of 100% cashmere wool with an ultra-soft fuzzy knit and elastic edging, available in black, grey, or indigo/dark blue. It is a Le 31 by Simons design from the Studio Capsule, made in Canada per the retailer's description... wait, designed in Canada. No limitations noted.[1] | Soft Knit Trilby: Choose this if you want a straw-look trilby without the straw: its 100% polyester knit is structured yet straw-like in appearance, with a closely knit braided weave, an indented pinched crown, and a short, slightly downturned brim with a tighter finished edge. It's finished with an embroidered two-tone band combining a thin dark cord and a lighter braided rope, ending in a small looped knot at the side front. Choose it for warm-weather styling in the single Ivory/Cream Beige colorway, offered in medium and large sizes; note that the straw-like look is the visual characterization of the knit, not actual straw.[2,3] |
