Size and fit

Beanies

All our beanies are one size and fit heads from 54 to 60 cm. The rib stretches to fit and recovers its shape, so most people never need to think about size. What changes from style to style is how the beanie sits.

StyleHow it sitsUnder a helmet
Cuffed rib (Col, Glacier, Alpage, Lauber, Refuge, Piste, Atelier)Over the ears, with the cuff foldedYes. Fold the cuff once for a lower profile.
Seamless (Arolla)Over the ears, with no crown seamYes, one of the best options
Fisherman (Dock, Chalet, Ibex, Traverse)Short, above the earsNot designed for it
Slouch (Sommet)Longer, falls at the backNo
Cable and pom (Haute Route, Verbier, Dolomiti)Over the ears, with more loftNot ideal, as it adds bulk
Mountain Performance (Ascent, Crest, Couloir, Liftline, Windline)Low-profile, ear-lengthYes, designed for it
Brushed mohair (Zermatt, St. Moritz)Over the ears, with a soft haloNo, keep it for off the hill

Caps

Our caps come in two sizes, S/M and M/L. If you're between sizes, or usually find caps tight, choose M/L. The unstructured caps (Lodge and Alpine Cotton) soften and shape to your head with wear.

How to measure your head

Wrap a soft tape measure around your head about 1 cm above your eyebrows and ears, across the widest part at the back. Keep it snug but not tight.
