benefits of its range of silk clothing accessories which are perfect for

As a natural fabric, silk holds many properties. It is hypoallergenic and
has natural temperature regulating properties, making it suitable to wear in
all climates.
Silk is also highly absorbent and a great addition for someone with an
active lifestyle, as it absorbs perspiration whilst remaining breathable.
Durable, lightweight and close fitting, silk is ideal for wearing underneath
layers without being bulky or restricting movement.
Its thermostatic properties and high absorbency make it an ideal companion
for cyclists and runners, particularly as a base layer in winter.
The Silk Balaclava from Extremities can easily be worn
under outer headwear and helmets and offers a soft, comfortable fit and
protection from drafts.
Silk gloves also make great liners for any outdoor enthusiast, as the
lightweight, close fit provides warmth while allowing flexible movement
underneath heavier gloves.
