Full details

This Sealskinz Colby WP Zipped Pocket Knitted Beanie is designed for adult males seeking reliable protection in cold, wet weather during outdoor activities. Its key benefit is complete waterproofness combined with warmth and breathability, ensuring comfort during exertion. A potential caveat is that while adult-sized, the fit may vary, and the zippered pocket, while functional, adds a slight bulk. This beanie features three-layer Aquasealz® waterproof technology, a windproof design, and a microfleece liner for enhanced warmth and moisture control, making it suitable for active pursuits in adverse conditions.

FAQs

Is this beanie suitable for very cold temperatures?

Yes, the combination of waterproof material, windproof design, and microfleece lining makes it very warm and suitable for cold weather conditions.

How secure is the zippered pocket?

The zippered pocket is designed to securely hold small items like keys or emergency cash. Ensure the zipper is fully closed.

Can I wear this beanie while running or cycling?

Yes, the beanie is designed to be breathable, allowing perspiration to escape, making it suitable for active pursuits like running and cycling in cold, wet weather.

What is the Aquasealz® technology?

Aquasealz® is Sealskinz's proprietary three-layer waterproof technology that ensures the beanie is completely waterproof while maintaining breathability.

How do I clean the beanie?

The beanie is machine washable on a cold cycle with liquid detergent. Do not use fabric softeners or bleach. Air dry only.

Is the beanie fully waterproof, or just water-resistant?

The beanie features three-layer Aquasealz® technology, providing *fully waterproof* protection.

What are the benefits of the microfleece liner?

The microfleece liner provides a soft feel against the skin for enhanced comfort and helps to wick away moisture, keeping your head drier.

Troubleshooting

Beanie feels damp inside despite being waterproof.

This could be due to perspiration. Ensure the beanie is not too tight and consider the breathability during very intense activity. Air dry thoroughly after use.

Zipper on the pocket is difficult to move.

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth. If persistent, a small application of graphite (from a pencil) on the zipper teeth may help.

Beanie has lost some of its water repellency.

Follow the care instructions for washing. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. For severe loss of water repellency, consider a specialized re-waterproofing treatment suitable for waterproof fabrics.
