What are the benefits of Merino Wool Beanies?

When it comes to beanies, merino wool presents a compelling case offering a host of advantages:

• Enhances comfort and reduces itchiness: Merino wool is exceptionally soft and gentle on the skin.
• Superior fit and stability: Due to its natural texture, merino wool snugly sits on the head without slipping, providing stability and comfort.
• Constant freshness: The breathability of merino wool assists in regulating core body temperature, making it suitable for both outdoor pursuits and everyday wear.
• Moisture control: Its moisture-wicking properties efficiently draw sweat and moisture away from the skin, ensuring dryness and comfort.
• Natural cleanliness: Merino wool's innate antimicrobial properties neutralize bacteria that cause body odour, minimizing the need for frequent washing when worn for extended periods outdoors.
• Warmth: Merino wool beanies are renowned for their superior warmth compared to synthetic beanies due to the unique properties of merino wool
  fibres. The natural crimp in merino wool fibres creates tiny air pockets within the fabric, which act as insulators, trapping heat and providing excellent
  thermal regulation.
• Durability and Longevity: Unlike synthetic materials or inferior wool grades, merino wool stands out for
  its exceptional longevity. Thanks to its natural elasticity, the fibres in merino wool inherently bounce back, allowing the garment to maintain its shape even after prolonged wear.
• Environmental Impact: When compared to synthetic materials, merino wool emerges as a more sustainable choice, given its renewable and biodegradable nature.
• Sustainability Merino wool lends itself to sustainable manufacturing practices when contrasted with synthetic materials, which often necessitate extensive processing in large facilities. Wool can be hand-woven by a single individual, leading to the feasibility of smaller-scale factories and mills.

Points to note:

• Natur beanie is a 100% recycled merino wool beanie
• Skogen beanie is manufactured from 75% merino wool and 25% Lyocell wood pulp.
• All merino wool beanies are manufactured in a sustainable and eco-friendly manner using wool that is mulesing free.
• If you need a merino wool beanie to withstand extreme cold conditions, such as during mountaineering or in areas with temperatures dropping significantly below zero degrees Celsius, we recommend selecting a chunky, long beanie with a warmth rating of at least three. Such beanies are made with thicker, additional wool for superior insulation.
