Longyear City Beanie (Black)

Longyearbyen was established in 1906 by John Munroe, as a coal mining company town. The settlement was formerly known as Longyear City. Today the main pillars of Longyearbyen are tourism and research. There are just over 2000 inhabitants represented by over 40 nationalities !

The Longyear City collection is designed as a casual accessory to keep you warm around town, yet handy and versatile enough to take with you on mini expeditions !

This beanie is loosely knit but is doubled walled, creating extreme comfort while retaining heat. It is also extremely soft, and can be rolled up depending on your style.

Dimensions: 21 wide x 28 cm tall, 48 g

This garment is made using a luxurious blend of ZQ merino wool, New Zealand Brushtail Possum fibres, and Mulberry silk.

The ZQ merino wool is ethically sourced from free range sheep in New Zealand and Australia and is guaranteed non-mulesing. The Possum is a non-native, invasive animal to New Zealand and causes immense harm to the country’s natural flora and fauna. The fibres sourced are a by-product of the national eradication program.
