The Norrona /29 Thin Striped Beanie is made using mulesing free 100% Merino wool in a slightly slouchy style. It was on 29 April 1929 that the visionary outdoorsman Jrgen Jrgensen started producing outdoor equipment that could withstand harsh weather. Almost 90 years later, when Norrna was thinking of names for its lifestyle collection, it seemed natural to play off the number 29. Norrna's lifestyle series concept is thus called /29. Glossary: Merino wool: Soft, non-itch wool from Merino sheep that provides good insulation even when wet, is durable, odour resistant, comfortable & warm.
