The Anatarctica Expedition Beanie is a truly unique garment, and probably one of the warmest and most comfortable wooly hat on the market today. It was designed with true Svalbard conditions in mind.
It is based on the design of the regular Antarctica beanie. Except it is twice as thick and slightly longer. The two layers of fabric trap air in between, and will insulate your head like no other beanie can. It can also be folded back for extra protection on your ears.
The beanie is great for the bitterly cold days, and has been tested in the coldest parts of the planet. If you are on a longer expedition, this beanie will keep you warm at basecamp.
Made from the exceptional Merino/Possum/Silk blend. Luxuriously soft too !
Dimensions: 23 cm at widest point x 28 cm tall, 120 g
Yann's tips and tricks: "I can guarantee you there is nothing else like this beanie on the market today. Since the start of Arctic Edge, this was the holy grail of beanies I was trying to achieve. This beanie has been with me on all my expeditions on Svalbard/ Greenland/ Antarctica for the past few years. When lying freezing in a tent or when taking breaks from snowmobile trips, I would take this beanie out. This is not to be used when you are very active, it will be too warm ! "

Perfect Beanie.. couldn't get warmer
Dear Michail, thanks for the review. I personally use the same expedition beanie during cold snowmobile/ski breaks and also around basecamps. Glad you like it. It certainly is warm :). Wishing you amazing adventures to come ! . Yann
I wanted a good hat for Antarctica. Arctic Edge was the only place I found with the word “ANTARCTICA” knitted into the hat making it perfect for my journey in Antarctica. I wear it all the time I’m outside. It’s well made and should last a long time. Fits well and looks awesome with goggles. Reads right folded over too. Very happy with this hat.
Thanks so much for the review. When designing the hat, we tried to make the warmest hat possible, while also being soft and comfortable. And its great to hear you think the same :). The beanie will indeed last a long time, I have been using mine for 8 years now and still going strong ! Happy to hear feedback from you in a couple years time :). Enjoy the winter !. Yann
