Beanies apparently date all the way back to the Vikings, who wore ‘knit caps’ and were later given the title ‘beanie’ in the early 1900’s, named after the head which was often referred to as ‘bean’ back then! Worn by blue collar workers for their practical function, beanies were popular amongst welders, mechanics and other tradesmen for keeping hair out of the face and keeping heads nice and warm.
With time, people of all generations embraced beanies as a fashionable winter accessory as it evolved and underwent various modifications. In the workplace, we have come to acknowledge the functionality and utility of the beanie, so much so that it is now a staple uniform piece for anyone whose work/hobby leads them outdoors.
With the winter chill creeping closer and closer, now is a great time to make sure your staff are suitably dressed. Why not explore the mighty beanie this year and go the extra mile and pop your logo on it! Headwear is a cost-efficient and highly effective promotional product choice. We have several different models available to suit all budgets, with options for both printing and embroidery.
Our beanies are both comfortably warm and stylish and range from Beanie hats, guaranteed to keep the cold out and your brand ahead, to acrylic beanies with pom pom, a quality two coloured beanie designed to keep you warm and make you look good.
