Daniëlle Kempers, neonatal nurse
"In neonatology, I still see it: babies weighing two kilos wearing a hat that slips down over their eyes. A hat that doesn’t fit doesn’t protect — it lets heat escape exactly where you don’t want it to. This hat fits well from 2 kilograms. That’s not a detail. That’s the point."

Yes — and that is exactly why we designed it. V

Many hats are too large for a newborn, allowing warmth to escape through the open space beneath the edge.

This hat fits well from birth, even for babies around 2 kilograms. The wide brim is adjustable, ensuring the head is always well covered.

Wool or hand wash program, max. 30°C. Do not tumble dry. Dry flat on a towel. Airing after use is almost always sufficient — merino wool is naturally self-cleaning.

Note: The hat does not need to be washed beforehand.

A true wool allergy is rare. What people often experience as an allergy is irritation caused by coarse wool fibers.

Merinowool has a much finer fiber and does not cause that irritation.

If a lanolin allergy is diagnosed, we recommend consulting a doctor.

The merino wool hat in Clay is one of those items you'll want to use again and again.
Made from pure, mulesing-free merino wool: soft, breathable and temperature-regulating.
The wool keeps your baby warm without letting him sweat and feels comfortable, even on the most sensitive skin.

The fit is snug around the head, helping to retain body heat. The fine, twisted drawstrings keep the hat secure without tying it too tightly.
Clay —a warm, earthy shade—suits every season and pairs beautifully with our beige, off-white, or sage pieces. Or pair it with our newborn slippers in Clay . Together, they also make a wonderful maternity gift.

This hat is essential for those first moments: it keeps your baby warm right after birth, in the stroller, or on the go. A small item with a big meaning.

From the NICU to your baby's nursery

"Every time I see a hat that slips over the eyes, I think: this could have been done better."

After 28 years in the NICU, I see it again and again: newborns wearing hats that are too big.

A hat that doesn’t fit doesn’t protect — warmth escapes exactly where you don’t want it to.

This is especially true for babies weighing 2 kilos. They don’t need a hat that looks cute. They need a hat that stays in place.

That difference is the only reason this hat exists.
