Product description
GripGrab Merino Polyfibre Lightweight Beanie black (black)
The GripGrab Merino Blend Lightweight Beanie really pushes the boundary of versatility when it comes to cycling accessories; not only does it fit underneath your cycling helmet for warmth and comfort when you are riding, but it is also perfect off-the-bike casual wear.
The material of this lightweight cycling beanie is a blend of super-soft natural merino wool, combined with synthetic fibres for enhanced durability and performance. The merino blend offers the best features of both natural and manmade fabrics to deliver superior performance and comfort; with both the warmth and softness of merino wool, and the greater wicking capabilities of synthetic fibres. It is the perfect versatile lightweight winter cycling hat.
This merino skull cap is highly breathable, fast drying and moisture wicking – so perspiration is moved away from the skin and can escape from within as you work up a sweat on a climb.
The merino winter hat has low profile seams and a lightweight fabric, so the beanie can be comfortably worn underneath your cycling helmet without hindering the helmet's fit.
Made from the highest quality, ethically sourced merino wool, the GripGrab Merino Blend Lightweight Beanie could be the most useful piece of headwear you ever own.
Merino wool
Merino wool is a particularly fine and high-quality type of new wool. It is obtained from so-called merino sheep. Merino sheep have particularly fine wool. Merino wool has a special structure and is therefore very soft. The natural fibre has functional properties due to its structure: it is very soft, strongly crimped, elastic and scaled. Merino wool therefore has numerous advantages: it does not scratch, as the fibres are only half as thick as those of normal new wool. It keeps you warm for a long time. At the same time, merino insulates against heat because it binds moisture and thus regulates body temperature. It can absorb up to a third of its dry weight in water without feeling uncomfortably clammy. This is why the wool provides long-lasting warmth even in rain and snow. Like normal new wool, merino wool is odour-neutralising. That's why you rarely have to wash it. It is usually enough to air merino clothing outdoors. Merino offers natural UV protection. Electrostatic charge does not occur with merino clothing.
