We’re pretty convinced the Willian Beanie from BARTS is the kind of beanie you’ll take everywhere. It’s ribbed, stretchy, and warm with a soft mélange wool blend – what more could you need from a winter hat? Plus, it has a dash of that classic fisherman style and retro charm – and we’re totally here for it. The close fit also keeps your head extra toasty to stay out in those super-cold temperatures for longer. This soft wool blend beanie is definitely one to top the list.
Isn't it funny how many outdoor brands seem to have started out with one man and a sewing machine? In 1986, the man was Bart Koene and the place was sun-soaked St Tropez. Bart originally knocked up handmade swimming shorts to sell on the beach, but one day a stylish friend was helping him flog his wares when a passing tourist tried to buy her bandana. Bart knew an opportunity when he saw one, and quickly branched out into headwear and other accessories.
Now based in Amsterdam, BARTS has come a long way since ‘86. In fact, the brand offers more than 2,500 products including hats, beachwear and bags. But it’s about quality, not quantity. This is clobber with conscience. BARTS don’t use angora, fur or mohair, and each year they increase their use of recycled and sustainable yarns. The brand insists on a strict code of conduct for its partner factories, and its head office and warehouse in Houthavens is purpose-built to minimise carbon emissions. BARTS employees even get free weekly yoga classes.
