Espevær – Sauna Hat in 100% Norwegian Wool

Product details
Natural white. Pure. Norwegian all the way.
Espevær is our natural white sauna hat made from 100% Norwegian wool. The natural colour puts the material centre stage and gives the hat a simple character that feels equally at home in a small wood-fired sauna and a modern sauna facility.
The story behind the name
Off the coast of Bømlo lies Espevær, an old fishing village shaped by life by the sea and the spring herring fishery that once supported a much larger permanent population. The island is still home to a fish landing station and maritime activity. Our natural white hat takes its name from this place, its light, understated character inspired by an island where the sea has always been part of daily life.
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.
