Product Information

Full details

The Horsey Beanie by SEALSKINZ is designed for adults seeking all-weather head protection, offering complete waterproofness and warmth for outdoor activities or daily commutes. Its key benefit is keeping you dry and insulated in cold, wet conditions, though its robust construction may feel warmer than a standard beanie in milder temperatures. This hat features three-layer Aquasealz technology, a breathable design, and a soft microfleece lining for comfort, all protected by an EcoTeflon coating.

FAQs

Is this beanie suitable for extreme cold?

Yes, the Horsey Beanie is designed for cold and wet weather, providing insulation and complete waterproofness. For very extreme cold, layering or additional insulation might be considered.

Can I wear this hat while cycling?

Yes, its waterproof and warm properties make it suitable for cycling in adverse weather. Its fit should be compatible with most helmets, but always ensure a secure and comfortable fit.

How do I know if the waterproof technology is still working?

Water should bead up and roll off the surface. If water starts to soak into the outer fabric, the EcoTeflon coating may need to be refreshed, or the waterproof membrane might be compromised by extreme wear.

What makes this beanie different from a regular knit hat?

The Horsey Beanie features a three-layer Aquasealz technology, making it fully waterproof, unlike standard knit hats which are susceptible to getting soaked.

How often should I wash the beanie?

Wash the beanie as needed, following the care instructions. Frequent washing is not necessary unless it becomes soiled, as it can affect the waterproof membrane over time.

What is the material composition?

The beanie is crafted from a blend of acrylic and polyester materials.

Troubleshooting

Beanie feels damp inside

Ensure the beanie is fully dry before wearing. If it persists, check if the outer layer is saturated, which may indicate extreme conditions or wear on the waterproof membrane. Allow it to air dry completely.

Reduced water repellency

The EcoTeflon coating may wear over time. Re-apply a suitable fabric waterproofing spray (check product compatibility) to restore water-beading properties.

Beanie feels too warm

This beanie is designed for cold, wet weather. For milder conditions, consider wearing it for shorter durations or in highly exposed environments where its waterproofness is essential.
