Product Overview
The Beechfield Junior original cuffed beanie (BC45B) is a foundational piece of winter headwear designed specifically for younger wearers. Crafted with a focus on both comfort and durability, this beanie provides essential warmth without the bulk often found in adult-sized alternatives. Its classic silhouette ensures it remains a timeless choice for school uniforms, youth sports teams, or casual outdoor activities.
Key Features
- Double-layer knit: This construction creates a thermal barrier, trapping warm air to provide superior insulation during colder months.
- Cuffed design: The fold-over cuff offers an ideal flat surface for high-quality decoration, ensuring your branding is prominent and professionally displayed.
- Soft-touch acrylic: The use of premium acrylic provides a wool-like feel that is gentle against the skin, reducing the risk of irritation for sensitive younger users.
- Tear-out tag: A removable label allows for easy rebranding or increased comfort by removing potentially scratchy internal tags.
Design & Performance
The performance of this beanie is rooted in its 100% soft-touch acrylic composition. Unlike natural wool, this synthetic fibre is resistant to shrinking and maintains its shape even after repeated wear and washing. The double-layer knit is not just for warmth; it adds structural integrity to the hat, ensuring it doesn't lose its elasticity over time.
From a design perspective, the cuffed style is deliberate. It allows for an adjustable fit by rolling the cuff further up or down, making the 'one size' design versatile enough to accommodate various junior head sizes comfortably.
Customisation: Embroidery Only
For this specific product, we offer embroidery as the sole customisation method. Knitted fabrics, by their nature, have a textured and porous surface that does not readily accept print transfers. Embroidery, however, involves stitching the design directly into the double-layer knit.
Our in-house embroidery team, backed by expertise dating back to 1976, ensures that every stitch is precise. This method provides a premium, three-dimensional finish that moves with the fabric's natural stretch, ensuring your logo remains sharp and durable for the life of the garment.
Use Cases
This beanie is a versatile choice for several sectors. It is particularly popular for primary and secondary school uniform kits, junior football and rugby clubs, and outdoor educational groups. Its availability in an adult version also makes it a perfect choice for organisations looking to maintain a consistent brand image across all age groups.

Practical Advice
As a 'one size' junior item, this beanie is designed to fit most children comfortably. For organisations looking to kit out an entire staff and student body, we recommend pairing this with the adult version of the same style to ensure a uniform appearance across the whole team. The acrylic fabric provides a slight stretch, so it will accommodate growth over several seasons.
Caring for your product
To ensure this beanie maintains its shape and the embroidery remains crisp, we recommend a machine wash on a warm setting. High-temperature washes can cause synthetic fibres to lose their elasticity over time, leading to a loss of fit.
If ironing is necessary, use a low-heat setting. Excessive heat can melt acrylic fibres or damage the delicate embroidery threads. Avoid the use of bleach, as this will degrade the fabric fibres and cause the colours to fade prematurely.
