Long hair. Cold air. We’re ready.

Those first chilly kilometres feel a little friendlier with soft merino around our ears. The insulating knit holds onto warmth, even in the damp misty morning air. Breathable, moisture-wicking and quick-drying it also lets moisture escape as we warm up; keeping comfort high when the temperature stays low.

The stretchy knit sits close to our head, fitting comfortably beneath our helmet, while the ponytail opening gives our hair somewhere to go. When we no longer need the extra warmth, it packs into a jacket pocket. Plenty of cosy, very little to carry.

The little things we feel:

• Warm ears. Happy kilometres. The soft merino blend provides natural insulation and retains warmth even when damp.
• Ponytail-friendly. A small opening at the back lets us wear our hair up while keeping the beanie comfortably in place.
• Snug beneath our helmet. The stretchy, close-fitting knit adds warmth without bulk. One size fits all.
• Warmth that breathes. Lightweight, breathable fabric lets moisture escape, with moisture-wicking and quick-drying properties for comfort as we move.
• A little freshness goes a long way. Merino wool’s natural antibacterial properties help keep odours in check.
• Pocket-sized backup. Lightweight and packable, it tucks easily into a jacket pocket when the day warms up.
• Softness with stretch. Italian knit composition: 62% Wool / 32% Polyamide / 6% Elastane (Lycra®).
• Good kit starts with care. We make Pansy Purple Merino Beanie in Europe, crafted to the highest quality standards, reflecting our commitment to quality and ethical manufacturing.
