3M M1371 Hood Scarf - Black Knitted Wool Blend Spray Treated Fineness 03 Unisex Italian
Half Hood, Half Scarf, Entirely Black
A knitted hood-scarf in a wool blend, worked at fineness 03 and finished with a spray treatment that gives the surface a dry, weathered depth. It covers the head and wraps the neck in one continuous piece. Made in Italy by LA HAINE INSIDE US, unisex, one size, engineered for cold air and quiet exits.
Why This Hood Scarf Is Different
- Two pieces in one — unlike a standard scarf that leaves your head exposed, this covers both in a single continuous knit.
- Fineness 03 knit — a heavy chunky gauge that traps warm air and holds a defined, sculptural shape.
- 20% wool — natural insulation and breathability blended with polyester for shape retention and durability.
- Spray treatment — a surface finish that gives the black depth and a dry, matte, slightly weathered hand no plain dye achieves.
- Unisex — one size, designed to sit correctly on a wide range of head and shoulder proportions.
- Layers under outerwear — sits neatly inside a coat collar without bulking at the neck.
- No logos — pure knit and silhouette, nothing to date it.
- Light to carry — packs into a coat pocket, changes an outfit the moment it goes on.
- Made in Italy — Italian knitwear construction and finishing throughout.

The Moment You Put It On
It goes over the head in one motion and the cold stops at the edge of the knit. The gauge is heavy enough that you feel the weight settle on your shoulders, and the spray-treated surface reads darker in the folds than on the crown, so the black moves as you move.
Then you push the hood back and it becomes a collar, sitting in thick folds at the neck. Where a beanie and a scarf fight each other for the same space, this one piece solves both and looks deliberate doing it. It is the accessory that finishes the outfit rather than interrupting it.
The Art of Fineness 03 Knitting
Gauge, or fineness, counts the needles per inch on the knitting machine. Fineness 03 is very coarse, which means thick yarn, big stitches and large air pockets between them. Those pockets are what hold body heat. It also means the fabric has structure: it stands away from the body and keeps the hood's shape instead of collapsing flat like a fine-gauge knit would.
The Art of Spray Treatment
Spray treatment is applied to the finished knit rather than to the yarn, so the colour sits unevenly across the surface and pools where the stitches are deepest. The result is a black with visible depth and a dry, slightly aged hand, and because it follows each piece's own stitch structure, no two come out quite the same. A premium finish disguised as wear.
How to Wear It
- City winter: hood up over a long black coat, everything else stripped back.
- Daytime: hood pushed back as a chunky collar over a fine knit and tailored trousers.
- Travel: packs into a coat pocket, doubles as a pillow-soft neck wrap on a cold flight.
- Evening: worn over a clean black silhouette, the knit texture doing all the work.
Care Instructions
- Hand wash cold, or dry clean — the spray treatment and wool content do not tolerate hot water.
- Do not machine wash; agitation felts the wool.
- Do not tumble dry.
- Do not bleach.
- Do not wring — press water out gently and reshape while damp.
- Dry flat, away from radiators and direct sun, so the knit does not stretch out of shape.
- Iron only on low with a cloth if absolutely necessary; high heat damages the polyester.
- Store folded, never on a hanger, so the shoulders do not distort.
