Why Merino?

Merino wool is at the heart of our fisherman beanies because it offers the perfect balance of warmth, softness, and performance. Unlike traditional wool, which can feel coarse or itchy, merino fibers are much finer. This makes our beanies soft enough to wear directly against your skin, even for long days outdoors.

Natural Performance

• Thermal Regulation: Merino keeps you warm when it’s cold, but it’s also highly breathable — helping to prevent overheating when the day warms up.
  
• Moisture Management: Each fiber can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture while still feeling dry to the touch. This means sweat or sea spray won’t leave you clammy.
  
• Odor Resistance: Thanks to its natural antibacterial properties, merino resists odors, so you can wear your beanie multiple times without constant washing.
  

Comfort & Fit

Merino’s natural elasticity allows it to stretch and recover without losing shape, giving your fisherman beanie a snug yet comfortable fit. The ribbed knit structure enhances this, adding warmth and durability while maintaining a classic style.

Responsibly Sourced

We use merino wool from carefully selected farms that prioritize animal welfare, land stewardship, and fiber quality. Because merino is a renewable resource — sheep grow a new fleece every year — it’s a natural and sustainable choice for long-lasting knitwear.

Care for Longevity

Merino is surprisingly easy to care for. Hand wash or use a gentle wool cycle, dry flat, and your fisherman beanie will retain its softness and shape season after season.
