Arrives in Handsome Gift Packaging
Handmade

I had been needing a new scarf for some time. After doing my homework, I decided on the double sided Alpaca from The Gentlemen's Gazette. Although late in the winter season, I have had some occasions to wear it and found it very comfortable, warm, and practical. I really like the double sided feature; it's like having two scarves in one! Planning on getting more for gifts.

Why The Dimensions Matter

The length and width of a scarf massively impact not only its look but also how well it functions as an insulator. Most men’s scarves on the market today are 150 cm x 30 cm, or 60” x 12.” This sizing was selected only to save money on costly resources, and as such, it is too short to provide sufficient warmth or protection from the elements.

We extensively researched and tested various scarf lengths to find the perfect dimensions. We found that traditional Scottish scarves were 180 cm x 35 cm, or 72” x 14,” and while the length was ideal, the width felt too stuffy and constricting. Therefore, we settled on the perfect format of 180 cm x 30 cm, or 72” x 12” for all of our scarves: these dimensions provided the perfect union of warmth, coverage, convenience, and styling potential.

Alpaca Double Sided Scarf in Light Blue and Light Grey - Fort Belvedere

Beautiful Blue & Neutral Gray

When you have a reversible alpaca scarf with blue on one side and gray on the other, you have a versatile accessory that can pair well with a variety of outfits.

The blue side adds a touch of color that can brighten up neutral-toned outfits, while the gray side provides a subtle, sophisticated look that pairs well with both casual and formal attire. This duality allows you to switch up your style effortlessly, depending on the occasion and your mood.

For a casual look, you can drape the scarf over a navy blazer paired with jeans and a white shirt. The light blue side will add a pop of color, making the ensemble more vibrant and eye-catching.

On the other hand, for a more formal setting, the gray side can be paired with a charcoal suit and a crisp white shirt, adding a layer of elegance without overpowering the outfit. The soft alpaca material also ensures comfort and warmth, making it a practical choice for colder weather.

Additionally, the neutral tones of blue and gray make this scarf a perfect match for a wide range of colors, from earthy browns and greens to classic blacks and whites.

Whether you are dressing up for a business meeting or down for a weekend brunch, the Alpaca Double Sided Scarf in Blue and Gray seamlessly integrates into your wardrobe, enhancing your style with minimal effort.

The King of the Andres

Although blessed with a soft feel and natural insulating abilities, alpaca yarn is sadly underutilized in modern menswear. Found mostly in southern Peru at elevations around 12,000 feet above sea level, alpacas, or lama pacos, are South American camelids that know how to stay warm when it’s cold, thanks to their incredible natural insulating abilities.

Alpaca fibers have internal microscopic air pockets that naturally trap heat, vastly augmenting their ability to insulate and keep warm. Alpaca fibers also have a silky, extremely soft feel, somewhat similar to cashmere, but with considerably more durability. Alpaca fibers are also elastic, making them less prone to over-stretching, and are lanolin-free and hypoallergenic, making them perfect for people with wool or cashmere allergies.

The Carefully Researched Perfect Size

We found that traditional Scottish scarves were 180 cm x 35 cm, or 72” x 14,” and while the length was ideal, the width felt too stuffy and constricting with alpaca fleece.

Care

To keep your alpaca scarf clean and looking its best, always hang it up or fold it neatly when not in use.

Washing

Your alpaca scarf will require very minimal regular cleaning. In the event that it begins to appear dirty, you can hand wash your scarf in cold water using a mild detergent, but never use bleach. Gently agitate your scarf in the water but don't rub or wring it, as you could bruise the fibers. Once finished, rinse the scarf thoroughly.

Drying

Lay the scarf flat on a towel to air dry. Every few hours, replace the towel and flip the scarf to dry both sides evenly.

Do not place your scarf in direct sunlight. Do not use artificial heat, like a hair dryer, to expedite the drying process.

Ironing

In the event of wrinkling, you may carefully iron your scarf at the lowest heat setting. Place a cloth between the iron and the scarf to protect the fibers.

Storage

When not in regular use or when putting away seasonal attire, store your scarf flat, in a loose roll, or gently folded. To keep away dust and moths, we recommend keeping the scarf in a breathable cotton bag.

If you store your scarf in a hanging position, be aware that the effects of gravity may slightly distort the weave.

Royal Baby Alpaca Fibers

As with most natural fibers, alpaca fibers are graded based on their thickness, with baby & royal baby alpacas representing the finest examples. Fine fiber is usually indicated by its softness, and while alpaca fibers are thicker than the best quality cashmere fibers, the surface of the alpaca fiber is naturally smoother, offering a comparable overall feel. As such, alpaca fibers are almost as soft as cashmere and with better insulating abilities. At Fort Belvedere, we source only the finest alpaca fibers from the best producers in Peru, insisting upon a thickness of between 19 and 22 microns.
The Cream of the Alpaca Crop

Alpaca fibers naturally come in 24 different colors, but white is considered the literal cream of the crop because it is the easiest to dye, and, in general, it tends to be softer. Because of our insistence upon the superior quality and out of a desire to offer our scarves in a variety of vibrant colors, only white alpaca hairs would do for Fort Belvedere.
Direct from Peru

As the historical center of the alpaca industry, Peru continues to offer the finest examples of alpaca fibers, and Fort Belvedere is proud to partner with heritage Peruvian harvesters to bring you the very best alpaca fleece in the world.
Treated for an Even Softer Feel

To impart an even softer texture reminiscent of flannel, all Fort Belvedere alpaca scarves undergo a special treatment that improves the feel without negatively impacting the alpaca fibers’ natural benefits. As part of our insistence upon quality, every Fort Belvedere scarf is double-checked by skilled inspectors to ensure they are worthy of the Fort Belvedere label.
Reversible Styling Potential

This scarf is double-sided and features color combinations specifically chosen to harmonize well with the widest possible variety of overcoats, almost regardless of pattern or color. The scarf can be worn with either side oriented outwards, for a refined, monochromatic look, or, literally, with a twist, to display both colors simultaneously for a bolder effect.
