This hat is 100% merino wool, so it's going to feel properly soft and warm on your head. It's got that classic 8-gauge knit, giving it a nice bit of texture, and the 9cm brim is actually useful for keeping the chill off. It's been made in Germany, which explains the solid feel of it. This isn't just some flimsy hat; it's built to last through the colder months. Think everyday wear, keeping you cosy without being bulky.
