Top list: Stylish beanies
Warm when it’s cold, attractive when you’re having a bad-hair day, and an easy way to create your own style. A beanie hat is the perfect accessory.
It doesn’t have to be cold for you to pull a hat over your ears. On the contrary, beanies have recently become a signature item of clothing for many different styles. Gone are the days where self-conscious teenagers and adults skipped wearing a hat: now there are all kinds of models to choose from, all of which help complete your outfit.
Can’t get enough of beanies? Here are several stylish models to consider – maybe you can find a new favourite?
Samsøe & Samsøe Nor Hat 7355 – Black
Nor from Samsøe & Samsøe is the ideal beanie for those who love colour but have a hard time picking their favourite. The model is available in 14 different colours, so it’s easy to find one to match your favourite garments. This soft and warm beanie is made of a mixture of 32% superfine alpaca, 32% extrafine merino wool, 30% recycled polyester and 6% elastane.
The hat is hand wash only, but since it’s mostly made of wool, it lasts a long time between washes if you air it properly.
Fjällräven Byron Hat Unisex – Autumn Leaf
A really attractive beanie from Fjällräven that feels very typical of modern outdoor design. The Byron Hat is available in five different colours, all in nice bright tones that bring to mind the woods in autumn. It’s double-knitted in wool to help keep the heat in even when wet, and has a small fox logo on the folded bottom edge.
Three tips when buying beanies
Choose a hat to suit the weather. There are many stylish hats that are neither warm nor protect against wind. Choose a beanie that is both stylish and keeps you warm.
Think about your hair type. Depending on the type of hair you have, the material in a hat can affect your hairstyle when you take it off. To avoid the risk of static electricity, double check your hair against the materials before buying.
Think about safety. During the darker part of the year, why not keep an eye out for hats with reflective details? There are even beanies that are completely or partially knitted in reflective yarn.
