The Noble Wilde Beanie (often referred to as the 'Ray Mears Beanie') has fast become a firm favourite among Woodloreans the world over. Thanks to its incredible warmth, breathability and luxurious softness, this winter hat has proven to be one of our best sellers, year after year.

Created from a special blend of fine merino wool and insulating possum fur, this double-thickness beanie provides a superb amount of warmth while remaining extremely light in weight. The idea of blending these two natural fibres was first developed by a New Zealand knitter as a by-product of the possum control programme, making the merino/possum blend an environmentally sound choice.

Possum fur is one of the most extraordinary natural fibres in the world, thanks to its hollow core; this cavity traps a tunnel of air that provides extraordinary warmth (up to 30% more than standard woollen garments), while keeping the fibre's weight to a minimum. As a sign of how effective this feature is, the only other animal with a hollow core fibre is the polar bear.

Merino wool also has unique characteristics; each fibre is exceptionally fine, long and densely crimped, helping to retain heat close to the skin while keeping out cold air. The fibre also wicks moisture away from the skin, allowing the wool to stay warm and dry. The combination of merino wool with possum fur results in a fabric that is lightweight, twice as warm as wool, highly resistant to pilling and opulently soft to the touch.

Really warm beanie, have had them in the past, but I got a different colour this time. Great for those of us that have nothing up top. A great range of colours now that should suit anyone. Incredibly warm

Softest beanie I've ever owned. Keeps me as warm as more expensive and bulkier beanies that are not near as soft & comfortable. This was a purchase of 2 for Christmas presents as I got one for me a few months ago. HIGHLY recommend.

I purchased this hat for my dad for Christmas - I think it is the 4th or 5th of these hats I have gifted him so far. He loves them for the quality and the warmth.

I was seeking a lightweight beanie that would not make my head itch while keeping me warm. This exceeds expectations. Hardly know I have it on yet performance is superb. And, unlike with many other wool or synthetic hats, it doesn't feel uncomfortable over time. The wool/fur/silk mix is a magical combo... Wish I had discovered this beanie earlier and highly recommend it for when temperatures fall.

So far I've been using this for stargazing in temperatures 5C to minus 5C and can confirm it is toasty. It's about two-thirds the weight of my woolly Thinsulate beanie. First impression when you handle the material it feels like it would be itchy, but I don't find it is.
