Miki Beanie
Description
There are headwear pieces that pretend. And then there's the Miki.
The Miki beanie is to the sea what the pea coat is to the quay: a classic that never tried to be one. Worn for generations on the harbours of Brittany and Normandy, this short sailor's beanie has crossed the decades without ageing a day — or catching a stray wave.
What makes it a beanie apart
— Made from genuine pea-coat wool cloth, warm, dense and sturdy, standing up to the wind without weighing down your silhouette
— Exact composition: 50% wool, 30% polyester, 10% acrylic, 10% viscose
A perfect mix of warmth, softness and rock-solid durability
— No peak — not for lack of ideas, but by maritime logic: less wind resistance, more freedom of movement
— Neat turned-up brim for an elegant finish, in the tradition of sailors' beanies
— Discreet adjustment strap on the inside, to fit effortlessly to any head shape
— Adjustable one-size-fits-all, unisex design — it suits men and women equally well
— Available in eight colours: navy, black, red, burgundy, grey, yellow, brown
Did you know?
The absence of a peak on the Miki beanie is no oversight. It's a decision. On board, when the wind picks up and the sea spray comes uninvited, a peak quickly becomes a hindrance. Sailors worked this out long ago — and the Miki still bears the mark of it.
Perfect for a day at sea, a stroll around the harbour, or simply for wearing the spirit of the open sea discreetly, day to day. It pairs naturally with a Breton shirt, a pea coat or a wool jacket — and lasts far longer than a single season.
