Description
Keeps your ears warm without the weight of a full beanie.
The lighter alternative for milder mornings and more active outdoor sessions. The merino wool blend holds heat even when damp, stays soft against the skin and naturally resists odour. The ribbed knit gives a snug, no slip fit that stays put whether you're running, swimming or walking the dog.
The go-to merino wool ear warmer headband for open water swimmers, wild swimmers and cold weather outdoor activities. Pairs perfectly with your Seashell changing robe.
Free UK shipping on orders over £60 and free returns, backed by a 3-year guarantee.

FAQs
What materials do you use, and which products are recycled?
Our waterproof hero pieces are built from 100% recycled polyester and nylon, certified by the Global Recycle Standard (GRS) and OEKO-TEX Standard 100. Third-party tested, not just marketing speak.
Our knitwear uses a 50% merino, 30% nylon, 20% acrylic blend — chosen for warmth, durability, and shape retention rather than recycled content. Our socks use a similar performance blend.
Each product uses the right material for the job — we don't tell sustainability stories we can't back up.
Where does the £1 to marine conservation go?
The Captain Paul Watson Foundation works to protect ocean wildlife and challenge illegal fishing worldwide.
£1 from every robe sale. No fine print.
