Work Hats
Cold ears while working? Whether you’re outside in freezing temperatures, working in a chilled environment, or renovating a building without heating, a good work hat is essential.

It’s the perfect way to subtly promote your business and a thoughtful gift for your team. Discover our wide range of work hats.
What is a work hat and why is it important?
A work hat is a crucial part of your personal protective gear, especially during the colder months. You can lose up to 40% of your body heat through your head. A good work hat helps retain this warmth, keeping you comfortable and focused on your tasks.
Practical benefits of work hats:
- Retains warmth during long working hours
- Protects against wind and cold
- Shields from UV rays
- Offers comfort in chilled environments
- Creates a professional look on the job
- Suitable for a variety of tasks
Types of work hats and their functions
Work hats are tailored to suit different working conditions and needs. Here are the most popular types:
- High-vis hats: For improved visibility in low light or poor weather.
- Balaclavas and helmet liners: Fully cover the head and neck, ideal for wearing under helmets.
- Flame-resistant hats: Designed for work in fire-hazard environments.
- Freezer hats: Built for extreme cold in refrigerated rooms or storage facilities.
- Reflective hats: Added safety for working near roadways.
How to choose the right work hat
When picking a work hat, consider these key factors:
- Work environment: Are you working indoors, outdoors, or in cold/extreme conditions?
- Material:
- Merino wool: Warm, breathable, and odour-resistant.
- Acrylic: Affordable and easy to wash.
