Sustainability and Product Care
Stop your brain from becoming a BRRRRRR-ain with the Idwal wool beanie. It’s made from 100% responsibly sourced lambswool with a chunky ribbed knit design. Pretend you're a fisherman. Or just wear it in the hills. It's your call.
Wool is naturally insulating, breathable and temperature regulating. This traps lots of warmth around your head without getting too sweaty or uncomfortably hot. Heads need layers too – lots of important things in your head. And bits of fluff.
Wool is naturally odour-resistant so your woolly hat requires very little washing, saving on water. Plus wool is 100% natural, biodegradable and renewable (sheep produce new fleece and sheep produce new sheep... usually in spring... they gambol... you know all this...).

Reducing our carbon footprint

We have joined the Science Based Targets Initiative which sets independent targets for us to achieve to do our bit to limit global warming to 1.5°C. Our targets are to halve our Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2025 based on 2018 base year and reduce our total carbon intesnity by 15% every year to achieve genuine net zero by 2050.
