Lightweight Merino Cashmere Beanie
Change options: Black / Regular
£50.00
Exceptionally fine and naturally intelligent, merino wool is prized for its ability to regulate temperature while remaining soft against the skin. Designed by nature to adapt, it provides warmth in cooler conditions and breathability when temperatures rise.
We source our chunky merino from Peru and our extrafine and superfine merino is supplied by industry favourites Zegna Baruffa (Est. 1850), Papi Fabio (Est. 1890) and Lanerossi (Est. 1817).
Naturally adapts to your body, keeping you warm or cool as needed.
Moisture-wicking fibres keep you fresh, dry, and comfortable.
Light yet warm, with natural strength and shape retention.
Ultra-fine fibres feel exceptionally soft against sensitive skin.
Requires less washing and resists creasing.
Renewable, biodegradable natural fibre.
This piece is made by skilled knitters in our family-owned factory in Navsari, using the same standards and oversight as our British production. As the home town of the Paul James family, Navsari has long been central to our expertise in fine knitwear.
