Nomad Beanie
Built from two of the world’s softest wools. Cashmere and ultrafine Merino.
- Built with ultra-soft cashmere and Merino wool
- Cashmere from Mongolia and Merino from Australia
- Thermoregulating and naturally water repellent
We’ve spent more than 99% of our time on Earth as nomads. For over 2 million years we migrated across grasslands, deserts and arctic tundra, only carrying what we needed, only keeping what was necessary, and only using the things we had to hand.
Today the last remaining nomads roam the planet. Masters of surviving in harsh and fast-changing environments, they know what it takes to work with nature and leave no trace. So while the rest of the world remains underprepared for Earth’s increasingly volatile climate, nomads have always been ready.
Our Nomad Beanie is built for the times when you’re travelling light, and every piece of gear has to work across any climate and terrain. It’s insulating, thermoregulating, naturally water repellent, elastic, and built from two of the softest wools in the world – cashmere grown on the grasslands of the Mongolian-Manchurian steppe, and ultrafine Australian Merino.
Technical Details

We combine the Merino with cashmere
We get our cashmere from the fleeces of the Hircus Laniger goats that graze on the vast grasslands of the Mongolian-Manchurian steppe. Stretching over 800,000 square kilometres, they experience some of the harshest winters on Earth – where temperatures drop to -50°C, and recurring natural disasters like ‘the dzud’ even have their own name. While people developed yurts to survive, the goats developed an incredibly thick fleece. Today every cashmere goat has a thick and rugged outer layer that protects a warm and ultra-soft undercoat. And it’s this undercoat which produces the cashmere fibres that we use to create the Nomad Beanie.
