Which beanie suits your work?
The name beanie mainly describes the shape; not every beanie is equally thick or lined.
- A lot of walking, lifting or moving between indoors and outdoors: a lightweight beanie is easy to take off when you get warm.
- Less active outdoor work in the cold: a thicker or lined style and an edge that covers your ears are practical choices.
- A hood over your beanie: try them together and turn your head left and right. The beanie should not ride up or make the hood feel tight.
Knitted, fleece or with a turn-up cuff
A knitted beanie with a turn-up cuff has a double edge around your head. This lets you adjust the height of the edge. A fleece beanie has a soft inside; also pay attention to seams where the fabric touches your forehead and ears. Some styles have two layers, while others are thinner. Fit and construction are therefore at least as important as the material name.
Pull the beanie over your ears and move as you would at work. A well-fitting beanie stays in place without pressing hard against your forehead. For a team, choose the same colour as the jacket or a distinctive contrast.
Staff beanies with your company logo
A name or company logo makes your team’s beanies recognisable. Browse our selection of beanies for embroidery. Unishore has its own embroidery department, and embroidery is available from one item.
On a turn-up style, the logo goes on the part that remains visible when you wear the beanie. Beanies with a patch can also be printed with a company logo or name. Printing is not suitable for every knitted or fluffy fabric; the appropriate method depends on the design. This keeps the beanie comfortable and the logo easy to read.
Washing and wearing your beanie again
Follow the washing and drying label and take any applied logo into account. Care instructions vary by material and design; one fixed temperature or dryer setting does not suit every beanie. Let a damp beanie dry before putting it on again. A dry spare is useful if you sweat a lot at work or your beanie gets wet.
