Possum Fur and Merino Wool Beanie Hat

  1 of 511

  Pros: Very soft and luxurious. It is not itchy at all. Cons: Not quite big enough to cover my ears when it's cuffed. There's no stitching to connect the two layers at the top of the hat. Because of this sometimes when you pull the hat off, it turns inside out. While it is fairly warm, I did expected it to be a bit warmer.

  Lovely hat. I have added my own Wild Mel badge to it and it looks lovely. Hopefully it will stand the test of time too. I wear it as a slouch hat.

  Extremely soft and warm, you can adjust the size of it really easily. Thank you Ray, you are a legend. This hat is going to make my winter a lot more bearable (and it looks great too).

  So soft! So warm! What more can you say about a hat? The colour is nice, and I can have it on all day without noticing any discomfort. Also my head doesn't overheat in the sun. Recommended!

  Warm, comfortable and very lightweight. This lovely soft hat is great for settling down at night in camp or for those chilly early mornings, I love it!

  I’ve had to purchase another possum beanie as I unfortunately mislaid my original. In a pocket or bag I’ve not searched properly. Not that I needed much of an excuse as these are magnificent beanies. Everything in the description is correct. I’ve worn my original from Woodlore in all sorts of weather and it did it’s job perfectly. I had to get a replacement and a bonus when I come across my original. Whole heartedly recommended. Once again, excellent service from Woodlore.

  I was genuinely surprised by how much I like this beanie. It is surprisingly warm for the weight, without causing overheating in the way synthetics often can. It is a helpfully subtle muted colour (I chose ebony) and has become a regular in my kit choices. If you’re after something warm and light weight I’d say this is a great choice!

  Thank you for the prompt delivery of my purchase. It feels to be made from a very good quality blend of fibres, very light and soft to the touch yet highly resistant to cold winds and very warm to wear. The one fault I have found is the movement between the two layers that the hat is made from. The hat is actually crafted from one continuous length of fabric that folds in on itself to create the hat. Due to the fine nature of the fibres these two layers seem to move and slide over each other, and this is a little annoying especially when pulling a hood over the hat. I wondered if a few well-placed stitches wouldn't help to keep the layers from doing this without affecting the warmth provided by the double layer.

  Bought this to replace the one my wife shrank by accident. Had to wear it when we got back from Bali as there was a drop of over 20 degrees. there are great hats, warm and practical on early morning dog walks. I wish that the colour description was simpler ie dark green, black etc. I bought the Avoka and had to ask my wife what colour it was as I'm red/green colour blind and can't tell some greens from browns. Definitely a recommended product and good value for money.
