These knitted hats are soft, comfortable and will keep you extremely warm. They are made from 50% NZ merino wool (know for is its fine, non itchy qualities and warmth) 40% possum and 10% nylon to help keep the garments shape.
Possum is some of the finest and softest fibers that nature produces yet is amazingly hard wearing. It is hollow which means it is insulating, light and extremely warm. (The other two animals that have this incredible hollow fur are Polar Bears and Reindeer and they live in extremely cold climates!)
Help save this country's forests and animals' life by supporting the possum industry. Possums eat and damage large tracks of forests and kill our native birds and their chicks every night in New Zealand.
The Double Beanie Hat is incredibly warm as it is made of a double layer of possum/merino wool. Can be worn folded up or loose off the head and comes in a range of great colours.
