Product details
Natural brown wool. Warm in character, made for high heat.
Veiholmen is a sauna hat made from 100% Norwegian wool, with an earthy brown colour and a simple Nordic character. The wool felt insulates your head from the most intense heat, making it easier to settle in as the temperature rises.
The story behind the name
At the outer edge of Smøla lies Veiholmen, once Norway’s largest fishing village south of Lofoten. The road there crosses bridges and causeways between small islands and skerries until the land almost comes to an end. The naturally brown wool takes its name from this place, with associations of timber, seaweed, smooth coastal rock and houses long exposed to sea weather.
Why wear a sauna hat?
Putting on wool in an already hot sauna may seem counterintuitive. But insulation is precisely the point. Heat rises, and the head is often the first place where the temperature becomes uncomfortable. The dense wool felt shields it from the most intense heat, helping your head stay more comfortable while your body is free to sweat. It also protects your hair and scalp from dry heat.
100% Norwegian wool
The felt is made from Norwegian wool at Sjølingstad Uldvarefabrikk in Southern Norway. The hats are then sewn in small batches in Norway. No complicated material blends. Just thick Norwegian wool felt and a simple product designed to do one job properly.
Use and care
For best results, use the hat dry. Wool is naturally resistant to odours and rarely needs washing between sessions. When needed, soak the hat in cold water, then leave it to dry without wringing. Avoid machine washing and high heat.
