Mountain Coat
A generously cut, full-length coat in exceptionally warm 85 % Yak Khullu,15% Silk. Its double-button chest fastening references traditional Tibetan tailoring. It can be worn open and unbuttoned, or tied with the ample waist belt wrapped twice around the body through the twin belt loops. Its centre-back split and wide-cut sleeves allow for comfort and mobility, while its high-cut, tabbed collar and cross-body lapel offer a protective encasement from the elements.

- Composition: 85 % Yak Khullu,15% Silk
- Base colour: Natural Yak Brown Base
- Care: Eco Dry clean only.
- Provenance: Handwoven at Norlha Atelier using yak khullu sourced from local nomad cooperatives.
- Base colour: Yaks typically have a dark brown coat, but they can also be found in grey and, very rarely, in golden brown and white. Our artisans work with all four yak wool shades, which are either left in their natural state, combined to create different tones, or dyed.
- Yak khullu: This coat was made using the khullu of 14 yak. Khullu is the ultra-fine, downy undercoat that keeps yak insulated during harsh Tibetan winters. Each summer, the yak naturally shed this down, which is then carefully collected by hand.
- Technique: Handwoven
- Artisans & Processes: A team of 17 artisans handmade this piece at Norlha Atelier. During its production, it went through 15 highly specialised processes.
- Shipping: All orders are packed with care and shipped from our atelier on the Tibetan Plateau.
