This hat from Borges & Scott is the height of luxury! We challenge you to even consider feeling cold when wearing the Lux!
Cashmere is renowned for its excellent insulation properties. It's also renowned for being one of the most expensive natural fibres around. Normally this results in Cashmere hats being made in light and thin knits. Not here! We've really gone for it with the Lux and made this exceptional hat out of a thick yarn and added a second layer to make what must be one of the most lavish hats around!
As with all our Cashmere, the Lux is unusual in that it has been made in a small family run workshop in Nepal, whereas most modern Cashmere is processed and knitted in large Chinese factories in the Inner Mongolia region of China.
EXTRA THICK and WARM: We wanted to really ‘push out the boat’ with the Lux and made a thick, sumptuous 100% Cashmere hat. With two chunky layers of Cashmere it has to be felt to be believed! We don’t think you’ll find a softer, warmer knitted hat anywhere!
REVERSIBLE DESIGN: With a chunky cable knit design on one side, and a classic rib design on the other, you can style this hat as you like - two great looks with one quality hat.
SUPER SOFT 100% CASHMERE WOOL: We like to think we are known for only using the finest materials. That is exactly what we have done here with this luxurious Cashmere hat. We worked with a small family run Nepalese wool mill and knitting workshop to bring you the best Cashmere we could find.
GIFT BOXED and MATCHING SCARVES AVAILABLE: Check out the matching Cashmere scarf also available in this range if you want to pair this hat with a luxurious scarf. Arrives packed in a quality recyclable B&S gift box, making it the perfect gift for anyone who loves slow, sustainable fashion.
VERY WARM and SUSTAINABLE: The sustainable 100% Cashmere wool used in this beanie has been proven over centuries to withstand the worst conditions of the freezing highland pastures of the Cashmere goat. This breathable hat will certainly keep you warm (not to mention stylish) whatever the winter brings.

How to find the right size Panama hat for you
If you are not sure what your hat size is, please follow these simple instructions to find your size.
Measure your head at the level you would want the hat to sit when you are wearing it. This can vary a little according to your personal preference, but normally it would be across the middle of the forehead, pass a thumb’s width above your ears and around the widest part of the back of your head. Use a tape measure or a piece of string to find your size in centimetres.
Once you have the measurement in centimetres, this should be the hat size for you. You may wish to move up or down one size if you like a particularly loose or tight fit.
If you know your hat size in a different measuring system, please use the following conversion chart to convert it to our sizing.
