Sustainable Promise
A message from the team at Nørlo Outdoor.
"At Norlo Outdoor we're committed to sustainability, quality, and functionality, and alpaca wool perfectly aligns with these values. This natural fibre is known for its remarkable softness, surpassing that of traditional wool and even cashmere. It's incredibly warm, yet breathable, making it ideal for outdoor wear. Alpaca wool is also hypoallergenic and durable, ensuring our hats stand the test of time.
Most importantly, it's a sustainable choice - alpacas have a light ecological footprint, and their wool can be harvested in an entirely cruelty-free manner. By choosing alpaca wool, we're able to deliver high-quality, comfortable, and eco-friendly products that our customers can feel good about."

How to wash your Nørlo beanie?
Our beanies are crafted from 100% Premium Undyed Alpaca Wool and must be hand washed or dry cleaned. Luckily they are naturally hypoallergenic and odour resistant so they shouldn't need washing very often, if you do wish to clean your hat follow the steps below for perfect results. Alternatively you can dry clean your beanie.
- Dissolve a few pumps of mild detergent or shampoo in warm water and soak the beanie for 5-10 minutes. (Do not use bleach or fabric softener).
- Gently press and squeeze the hat to flush the soapy water through the fibres, do not rub as this will damage the hat. Repeat this step a handful of times.
- Gently rinse the hat in clean, warm water until it runs clear, press to remove excess water. Do not ring out or stretch the beanie.
- Unroll the rim of the beanie and lay it flat on a towel then press gently to remove as much water as possible. Lay the beanie flat to dry in its natural shape.
How to reshape your Nørlo beanie?
Alpaca wool is incredibly elastic for a natural fibre however even the highest quality knitted garments may loose their shape with heavy use. Luckily, one of the coolest features of alpaca wool is that you can steam it back to its original shape.
To do this simply steam the hat with a steamer or an iron on a 'wool' setting until it becomes damp, if using an iron hover just above the wool- don't press down.
Once the hat is damp squeeze and press it into its original shape and leave to dry. Repeat this process until you are happy with the results.
