Historically a dark-blue, knitted woollen cap with a turned-up cuff worn by enlisted personnel on duty in cold weather. 'Watch Cap' - so named from a sailors duty of keeping watch. Now an extremely common form of headgear for all hard workers and found all over the world where the climate demands a warm hat, the knit cap can be found under a multitude of local names. 'The beanie' was working apparel associated with blue-collar labourers, including welders, mechanics, and other tradesmen who needed to keep their hair back, but for whom a brim would be an unnecessary obstruction. 

Style Tip: An everyday essential during the cooler months but also worn all year round. Make a statement with our vibrant palettes of yellow and orange and pair with more muted tones of navy and green.
