Frequently asked

Your head sits closest to the ceiling, where the air in a sauna is hottest. A wool hat creates a barrier of still air that slows heat absorption — your head stays comfortable, you stay in longer, and your body gets the benefit of the full session.

100% wool. 4mm single layer of high-density felt, finished with minimal stitching. Naturally temperature-regulating, moisture-wicking, and antimicrobial.

One colour: Natural — a warm oak tone. We've focused our launch range on a single, considered colourway.

Felted wool sits as a structured hat, not snug against the scalp the way a knit beanie does, so most people find it comfortable. If you have a known wool sensitivity, the brim is what touches your forehead — try it briefly first and use our 30-day return if it's not for you.

Yes. The hat is designed for traditional Finnish-style dry saunas but performs well in steam rooms and infrared cabins. In a steam room it will absorb more moisture; air dry it fully between sessions.

Dry heat above 80 °C is hard on hair structure. The hat shields your hair from direct heat exposure for the duration of a session.

One size, designed to fit most adult heads. The hat softens and moulds to your head over the first few sessions.

The brim should sit just above your eyebrows and fully cover your ears. It should feel snug but not tight — wool gives a little once warm.

Air dry after every session — hang it somewhere ventilated, brim up. Spot-clean with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap if needed. Reshape while damp.

Do not machine wash. Do not tumble dry. Do not wring.

With proper care, years. Felted wool is built for repeated heat exposure — it softens and develops character with use rather than wearing out.

Wool is naturally antimicrobial and resists odour. If a faint scent develops, air the hat outside for a few hours; it usually resolves without needing to wash it.

Reshape while damp — pull it gently back to form on a flat surface or over a bowl that approximates head shape, then let it dry there.
