What is Eco-Cotton? Eco-Cotton is a blend of reclaimed cotton fibres from discarded garment scraps combined with nylon made from the incredible RPET process of recycling plastic (PET) bottles into fibre. Through a proprietary scrap fabric colour matching system there are no dyes or chemicals used in the process of creating such vibrant colours from what would otherwise be textile waste. 

Washing Instructions

Hand wash, lay flat to dry. Do not bleach.

Size & Fit
One Size
Length: 11-12" Inches (without fold)

Knit cotton is prone to stretch so if your hat feels a bit tight when you receive it, wearing it will quickly adjust it to your head. If you feel your hat starts to loosen too much over time, you can give it a hand-wash in warm water or machine wash in cold, lay it flat to dry, and it should spring right back.

Fit:  

The watchcap is a style that's existed for well over 100 years, though it's most commonly associated with WWII US Navy personnel. A watchcap is a shorter hat, traditionally meant to be worn folded above the ears. However,  we have updated our to reflect a need to wear it in any way someone prefers. Want to wear it traditionally? Fold it above the ears. Want to wear it like a beanie? Pull it down back behind the ears with a short fold. No fold? We have even put a double sided label to wear it like a skully with no fold! Please keep in mind these are half-cardigan knits, meant to retain shape and fit tight!
