Le Bent Men's Beanies

Frequently Asked Questions

• What makes Le Bent men's beanies warm, soft, and odor-resistant?

  Le Bent uses its signature Polylana® blend (about 62% rayon from bamboo, 30% merino wool, 8% elastane) developed with CSIRO to combine merino’s natural insulation and antibacterial properties with bamboo rayon’s silk-like, no‑itch softness. The blend traps air for insulation, wicks moisture through micro-gaps in the fibers, and reduces odor buildup for longer wear between washes. Durable recycled yarns and elastane help the hats keep their shape through heavy use.
• How do the Staple Mid Profile Beanie, Buddy Beanie, and Logo Pom Pom Beanie differ?

  The Staple Mid Profile Beanie is a relaxed mid‑profile style with an embroidered logo patch for balanced coverage and casual on-mountain to everyday use. The Buddy Beanie is a classic rib-knit, unisex silhouette with a closer knit texture and timeless look. The Logo Pom Pom Beanie adds a stylish pom accent and is constructed from a mix of recycled and virgin yarns, making it the most fashion-forward option of the three.
• Are Le Bent beanies suitable for skiing, snowboarding, and other high-output winter activities?

  Yes, Polylana®’s temperature-regulating merino and breathable knit construction help manage sweat and retain warmth on cold, active days, while bamboo rayon keeps the fabric soft against skin. The blend’s moisture-wicking and odor-control properties make these beanies appropriate for multiple outings between washes. Note that the mid-profile Staple typically fits comfortably under most helmets, whereas a pom-pom style can affect helmet fit.
• What size and fit should I expect from Le Bent men's beanies?

  Most Le Bent beanies are designed as one-size-fits-most with a relaxed, mid-profile fit that accommodates a wide range of adult head sizes. The 8% elastane provides stretch and shape retention, so the hats stay comfortable without feeling overly tight.
• How do I care for a Polylana® blend beanie to keep it soft and shaped?

  Wash gently—either hand wash or machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle with a mild detergent—then reshape and lay flat to dry to avoid stretching or shrinkage. Avoid bleach, harsh detergents, and high-heat tumble drying to preserve the bamboo rayon softness, merino performance, and elastane elasticity.
