Full details
The Sealskinz Heacham Bobble Hat in Olive is designed for adults seeking robust protection against cold and wet weather. Its key benefit is unparalleled warmth and comfort thanks to a waterproof, three-layer Aquasealz technology and a soft micro-fleece liner. A potential consideration is its specific thermal rating, making it best suited for *extra* cold and wet conditions, rather than mild cold.

Hat feels too tight

Water seeping through
Inspect the hat for any damage to the Aquasealz membrane or seams. Hand wash gently and ensure it is dried correctly. If damage is apparent, consider replacement.
