Product Overview
The Flexfit by Yupoong Long Knit Beanie is a sophisticated take on a cold-weather essential, designed to offer both comfort and a professional aesthetic. Unlike standard headwear, this beanie features an extra-long construction, providing the wearer with the flexibility to style the cuff to their specific preference. The soft, slightly looser knit creates a textured appearance that bridges the gap between casual workwear and a more refined corporate look, ensuring your team remains warm without compromising on style.
Key Features
- Ribbed Knit Construction: The classic ribbed pattern allows the fabric to expand and contract, ensuring a secure yet comfortable fit for all head sizes while maintaining its original shape over time.
- Adjustable Turn-up Cuff: The generous length of the beanie allows for a deep cuff, providing an extra layer of insulation over the ears during the colder months.
- Hypoallergenic Acrylic Fabric: Using 100% hypoallergenic acrylic ensures that the garment is soft against the skin, making it suitable for long shifts and for those who find traditional wool irritates their scalp.
- Unisex Design: The versatile styling and one-size-fits-all approach make this an ideal choice for a diverse workforce, simplifying the procurement process for your company.
Design & Performance
Engineered by Flexfit, a name synonymous with quality headwear, this beanie is manufactured from a medium-weight acrylic that offers excellent thermal properties. The fabric is chosen for its durability and resistance to the elements, providing a synthetic alternative to wool that is both lighter and quicker to dry. The slightly looser knit is intentional, offering breathability so that the wearer remains comfortable during physical activity while still benefiting from the fabric's heat-retention capabilities.
Customisation: Embroidery Only
For the YP193 Long Knit Beanie, we recommend embroidery as the sole method of customisation. The textured, ribbed nature of a knit garment does not provide a sufficiently flat surface for print films to adhere to reliably. Embroidery, however, allows our Telford-based team to stitch your logo directly into the fabric.
Since 1976, MyWorkwear has specialised in high-quality embroidery. Our industrial machines ensure that the thread becomes part of the garment's structure, moving with the knit and providing a premium, 3D finish that will outlast the rigours of daily wear. A well-placed embroidered logo on the cuff provides a professional touch that commands authority.
Use Cases
This beanie is a versatile addition to any uniform, particularly suited for staff working in cold storage, outdoor construction, or logistics where temperature regulation is a priority. It is also an excellent choice for corporate promotional events or as a high-quality gift for clients, offering a practical item that people will actually want to wear during their commute or weekend activities.

Practical Advice
As this is a 'one size' item, it is designed to be highly inclusive. When styling the beanie, we suggest ensuring the embroidered logo is centred on the cuff before folding it to the desired depth. This ensures your branding is always visible and professionally presented. For those working in extreme conditions, this beanie layers perfectly under hood attachments of waterproof jackets.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the performance and appearance of your embroidered beanie requires adherence to specific care guidelines. Proper maintenance ensures the acrylic fibres remain soft and the embroidery remains taut.
The manufacturer recommends that this item should not be washed. Introducing the beanie to a washing machine environment can cause the ribbed knit to lose its elasticity and may lead to pilling of the acrylic surface. We suggest gentle spot cleaning with a damp cloth for any marks to preserve the garment's shape.
Bleaching, ironing, and tumble drying must be avoided at all costs. High heat from an iron or dryer will cause the synthetic acrylic fibres to fuse or 'glaze', resulting in a permanent change in texture and potentially damaging the embroidery threads. Similarly, dry cleaning solvents are too harsh for this specific knit and should be avoided to prevent structural degradation.
