Product Information
Full details
The Sealskinz Heacham Bobble Hat in Blue is designed for adults seeking reliable protection against cold, wet, and windy weather. Its key benefit is superior waterproof, breathable, and windproof performance thanks to Aquasealz technology, keeping you comfortable in challenging conditions. A potential caveat is its specific thermal rating, which, while high, might be overkill for milder cold snaps. This hat combines a durable acrylic outer with a warm micro-fleece liner, making it a robust choice for winter activities.

Troubleshooting
Hat feels too tight or too loose.
The acrylic outer fabric offers stretch. Wear the hat for a short period to allow it to conform to your head shape. If still uncomfortable, consider an alternative size or style if available.
Reduced warmth or waterproofing after prolonged use.
Ensure the hat is clean according to care instructions. Dirt and residues can affect material performance. Check for any physical damage to the fabric or membrane.
