This warm beanie is a heavyweight double layer cap made in the U.S.A. from 100% American Ragg Wool. Ragg wool is a moisture wicking traditional workwear blend that includes nylon for shape retention and durability.
Some pilling is natural as the loose ends come together. These are easily removed with a wool comb or carefully with scissors.
