Description
Founded in 2016 by Christian Hofmann, whose experience includes a 12-year career at Ralph Lauren and a lifelong passion for the outdoors, Heimat Textil is based out of and produced in Germany. Every piece they make is built to last, with a solid construction that only gets better with time, softening and breaking in from wear. The company name, Heimat is a German word without a direct translation in English — best explained as a comfortable and secure feeling that comes from being where you belong.
Heimat's primary focus as a brand is quality, working with the very best materials and using the most sustainable production techniques to create heirloom-quality staples with German sensibilities. Their garments are made to be lived in, taken outdoors and subjected to the elements, keeping up with your lifestyle — whatever it may be. The designs are classic and stripped of excess, versatile by way of their minimalism, comfortably fitting into a wide variety of different wardrobes.
Heimat's Mechanics Hat is inspired by USN watch caps from WWII, with a thick cuff and a fitted crown. The extra tall cuff can be rolled lower to allow for different styling, and the interior hides two custom woven Heimat labels. For the spring/summer season, this batch is made from a breathable medium-weight cotton-linen blend, with a soft crunchy hand that won't insulate your head quite as intensely as wool.
Using special blended yarns, this version of the mechanics cap is produced in an "extra-fine" 8-gauge knit, noticeably smaller and tighter than the usual 5-gauge used on their fall/winter Mechanics Hats. The 70% cotton / 30% linen composition of the yarns pair extremely well with the smaller knit, resulting in a beanie that's actually suitable for warmer weather — breathing well and drying quickly. Initially quite tight, these "break in" quickly with wear, relaxing throughout and taking the shape of the wearer's head.
Fits true to size. Hand wash cold and dry flat.
