FAQs
Is this beanie suitable for extreme cold?
Yes, the Harleston Beanie is engineered for cold weather with its insulative Merino wool and microfleece lining, combined with waterproof and breathable technology.
Can I machine wash this hat?
No, it is recommended to hand wash the beanie in cold water with a mild detergent to preserve the waterproof membrane and material integrity.
What makes it waterproof but also breathable?
It uses a special Aquasealz membrane sandwiched between the outer and inner layers. This membrane blocks external water while allowing internal moisture vapor (sweat) to escape.
Is the Merino wool itchy?
The Merino wool used is selected for its softness. Combined with the microfleece lining, it is designed to be comfortable against the skin.
How durable is the knit design?
The beanie is crafted from strong Merino and polyester yarns in a tight knit design, making it extra-durable for long-lasting use in challenging conditions.
What activities is this beanie best suited for?
It is ideal for any outdoor activity in cold and wet weather, including hiking, cycling, winter sports, and general cold-weather wear.
Does it come in other colors?
Yes, the Harleston Beanie is available in a range of colors including Navy and Olive, in addition to this Green variant.
Troubleshooting
Beanie feels too tight.
The rib knit is designed to be snug for a secure fit. Try gently stretching the beanie in different directions over a flat surface when not in use. Avoid aggressive stretching.
Water seeping through.
Ensure the beanie is not damaged. Check for any tears or holes in the fabric or membrane. Proper care and avoiding sharp objects can help maintain waterproof integrity.
Reduced warmth.
Ensure the inner microfleece lining is clean and free from debris. Lint or dirt can reduce its insulative properties. Follow care instructions to clean gently.
