A wide silk band with an adjustable back strap — light, breathable and completely opaque without pressing on the eyes.
Materials
- 22-momme mulberry silk, outer
- Cotton wadding insert
- Silk-covered elastic back strap
- Removable cotton liner
Dimensions
- Band height: 90 mm
- Head circumference: 52–62 cm, adjustable
- Weight: 38 g
Design notes
- Opaque by layering rather than coating — no rubberised inner surface against the face.
- The padded insert is removable so the silk can be hand-washed or dry-cleaned.
- Elastic is fully silk-covered so no bare elastic touches hair or skin.
- Adjusts at the back of the head, keeping the front band smooth and flat.
Open questions
- Is 90 mm the right height, or does a narrower band stay in place better?
- Should a second, lighter fabric option be offered for warmer rooms?
- Would a fully washable version matter more than the silk hand-feel?
