The light weight design of this beanie makes it very easy to wear as well as being small enough to carry in your pocket for when the weather turns a bit nasty. It's made from a luxury blend of 20% Possum, 70% Merino, 10% Silk. Possum fibre is 55% warmer than Merino so this makes for a very warm but lightweight garment that has a very low pilling rate. Made in New Zealand by Native World..
