Pico Merino Beanie
$39.90
We want to eliminate every last bit of fabric waste possible. Quality fabrics are expensive and we dont want to add to landfill. Where there are gaps in the pattern layout our designer thinks creatively and makes pattern pieces for items that use the gaps. Our merino Pico and Hand Warmers are two of these creations using merino fabric. Because they are fitted in where space occurs, the colour range is assorted.
The Pico can also be worn under a helmet.

New Zealand Superfine Merino
Over the past ten years this Superfine Merino fabric has been responsible for totally redefining New Zealand’s woollen garment industry. Using state of the art spinning technology from Korea this 18.5 micron merino was the true starting point of turning heavy, coarse woollen clothing into soft, light, non scratch, non itch garments. It reintroduced wool as a versatile and friendly to wear, next-to-skin fabric.
As a natural fibre Superfine Merino has two very real performance benefits. It can control the level of moisture within each fibre to keep you warm in cold temperatures and cool in hot temperatures. It can also absorb and disguise body odour allowing garments to be worn continually for days.
The construction of our 190 gram/m², single jersey, 18.5 micron Superfine merino has remained unchanged for over a decade. The fabric is renowned for its stability. Even with constant machine washing and wear our Superfine garments will not lose shape, shrink or pill. Soft as your favourite cotton T-shirts, the strength and durability of the fibre ensures they will last much longer.
Superfine Merino is an ideal next-to-skin fabric for travel or for anyone wanting the all day comfort and warmth of a natural fibre.

Great little slimline beanie that looks great, feels great, and also fits comfortably under a bike helmet for the chilly days. In fact, it’s so great that since my partner had tried it on, I haven’t managed to wrangle it back off him so I need to pop in and get another one!

Wow – I ordered 5 of these – advance Christmas presents and a great way to help support Tairāwhiti – they arrived SUPER quickly and a lovely assortment of colours – loving the different colour in the reverse. They are wonderfully soft to wear and I will be ordering more . . .

Such a great hat. I had one and it went to who knows where. I loved it so much that I am here to order another. Fully reversible the Pico fits perfectly underneath my cycle helmet and is perfect for tramps or around town. On top of the functional features it feels good wearing a hat that helps safe the planet and contributes to those in need. I will spread the word and definitely will be back ordering more.
