PÁRAMO BEANIE

The Páramo Beanie is for those who enjoy outdoor activities all year round.

At virtually any time of the year, it is useful to carry a compact beanie to provide head protection when you take a rest, or if conditions worsen. The challenge is to find a beanie that will keep you comfortable in a wide range of conditions and when worn with other garments or equipment.

The Beanie’s combination of fabrics makes it protective, warm, fast wicking and quick drying. The shape and fit means that it works well under a hood or helmet as well as on its own.

The Beanie offers

• Warm feel from fleece inner with excellent wicking and directional movement of moisture away from your head.
• Light stretch for comfortable close fit, including under a Páramo jacket hood or a helmet.

Parameta^® G fabric is two fabrics in one, providing cooling when needed and insulation when needed.

When covered with a wind-proof the fleecy grid squares trap air and provide excellent insulation. When uncovered the gaps between the grid allow moving air to go straight to the skin, promoting cooling. The structure of this next-to-the-skin fabric optimises lateral water movement for evaporative cooling, keeping you comfortable when you are working hard.

These features provide a fabric which can keep you warm and keep you cool, and therefore is useful in the widest range of temperature conditions and activities, from high mountain climbing to gentle spring and summer walking, and all year round cycling.

What users say...

“Heat loss at the head is quite substantial, especially for people with short hair like me. Protecting the head is essential when conditions worsen. The Páramo Beanie really won me over. Its shape fits neatly to the head and the even seams prevent ugly bulges. The best part is its insulation performance. The material feels light and fits close to the head and its protection against the cold is outstanding. The Grid-Technology provides air pockets between the fabric and the head, ensuring ideal insulation and the close-knit of the material protects efficiently against wind.”
