Outlander Alpaca Beanie
Will be shipped within 24 hours via Swiss Post.
The "Outlander Alpaca Hat" is the result of an innovative collaboration between HAE and two master's students from the Circular Economy and Sustainability program. Together with Larissa and Line, we set ourselves the goal of developing a compostable beanie. Made from undyed alpaca wool that has been left completely natural, this hat offers outstanding properties and is able to degrade within five years. In addition, the thread and the woven label are also made from compostable materials.
A step towards sustainability
The alpaca wool used in the "Outlander Alpaca Hat" is known for its excellent thermal properties. It keeps you warm while offering high breathability. Our efforts to create a fully compostable beanie are a first important step towards more sustainability in the fashion industry. However, it is important to note that industrial composting options vary by country. Unfortunately, this is not yet fully implemented in many countries, including Switzerland. Important: Please only throw the beanie in the compost if it also allows the necessary industrial composting!
For the future of fashion
With the "Outlander Alpaca Hat" we are setting an example for the future of sustainable fashion. This hat is not only functional and stylish, but also a statement for environmental protection and innovation. We will continue to work on our sustainability goals and hope that the infrastructure for industrial composting will soon be available worldwide.

Real voices, real experiences
Our products are made where they are needed: in the Alps.
And they're worn by people who are out and about – in storms, sunshine, or powder. Here, they share their experiences with you.

“I am super happy with the hat, fast delivery and very friendly communication :-) Thank you!”

“Every child has a headband for the whole family. 😜 I was particularly impressed by the color and quality, and of course, the black label at the end was fun to sew! Thank you.”

“The quality I wanted! The fit and material are excellent.
I've been wearing mine for the second winter already. Our daughter asked for one for Christmas this year (-;)

“I think the Polycolon hat is great, especially for touring (breathable), which is why I just bought a second one.”
