Calfú Classic Vicuña Huaso Poncho

Description

The Calfú Classic Vicuña Huaso Poncho is the essence of the traditional Chilean huaso poncho: a garment of great presence, warmth and character, made to last for many years. It comes in a warm, solid vicuña brown and is made by Unik, a family textile workshop from La Ligua, Chile.

It is handwoven on a traditional loom with 3 strands of sheep’s wool with a percentage of alpaca fiber. The result is a thick, warm and resilient textile designed to keep its shape and quality over time. Its dense weave also gives it a natural water-repellent quality that helps protect against damp and light drizzle, making it a practical choice for changing weather.

Its generous, traditional cut drapes from the shoulders and leaves room to move freely, so the poncho layers easily over sweaters and jackets.

Like the best handwoven pieces, this vicuña huaso poncho is made to be worn for years and even handed down from generation to generation, carrying the pride of the Chilean countryside wherever you go.
