Product Overview
The Beanie Hat with Peak is a thoughtfully designed accessory for professionals who require consistent thermal protection without sacrificing visibility. Part of our All Weather Protection range, this headwear solution addresses the specific challenge of working in low, bright winter sun while maintaining essential head warmth. It provides a practical alternative to standard beanies by incorporating a soft peak into a comfortable, fine-knit construction.
Key Features
- Fine Knit Acrylic: The tight weave of the acrylic yarn effectively traps air to retain body heat, keeping you warm during extended shifts in cold environments.
- Integrated Soft Peak: Offers protection from glare on bright, frosty days, ensuring your vision remains clear while you work.
- Flexible Fit: The knit structure provides a natural stretch that accommodates most head sizes securely without causing pressure points.
- Classic Aesthetic: The deep black colour ensures a professional appearance that integrates seamlessly with almost any corporate uniform or workwear ensemble.
Design & Performance
Constructed from 100% acrylic, this beanie is engineered for both resilience and comfort. Unlike heavier wool alternatives, the fine-knit acrylic is soft against the skin and lacks the characteristic itchiness of some natural fibres. The fabric choice is particularly advantageous for workwear as it is inherently moisture-resistant and quick-drying, ensuring the garment remains functional even if you are caught in a light shower.
The addition of the peak is not merely aesthetic; it is a performance feature designed for the outdoor tradesperson. It provides just enough shade to prevent squinting under the winter sun, which is a common health and safety consideration for those operating machinery or working at height.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
Despite the textured nature of the knit, this beanie is an excellent candidate for customisation. For a truly professional and long-lasting finish, we recommend embroidery. Our Telford-based team can apply your company logo or staff names with high precision, creating a durable, three-dimensional effect that stands up to the rigours of daily wear.
For larger, more graphic designs, certain print methods can also be applied. Since 1976, MyWorkwear has been perfecting the art of garment customisation, and our in-house experts ensure that your branding is applied with the correct tension to avoid distortion when the hat is worn.
Use Cases
This headwear is ideal for a wide variety of sectors, including construction, landscaping, and logistics. It is particularly suited for delivery drivers who frequently transition between a vehicle and the outdoors, as well as site supervisors who need to maintain a professional look while staying protected from the elements.

Practical Advice
Due to the stretchable nature of the knit, this is a one-size-fits-most garment. When wearing the beanie with the peak, ensure it is seated firmly on the crown of the head to prevent the peak from obstructing your upward peripheral vision, especially when working on ladders or scaffolding.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and thermal properties of your beanie, we recommend a domestic wash at a maximum temperature of 30°C using a mild process. Washing at higher temperatures can cause the acrylic fibres to lose their elasticity, resulting in a hat that no longer fits securely.
Do not use bleach on this garment. Bleach will not only strip the professional black colour but also weaken the synthetic fibres, leading to premature thinning of the knit.
Avoid the use of a tumble dryer. Intense heat can cause the peak to warp and the knit to shrink unevenly. Instead, we advise line drying the product to allow it to return to its natural shape.
Do not iron this hat. The direct heat from an iron will glaze or even melt the acrylic fibres, permanently damaging the texture and finish. Similarly, dry cleaning should be avoided as the harsh solvents used can degrade the knit quality over time.
