Product Insights
Simons' Pure Merino Wool Ribbed Tuque is a 100% merino wool beanie with 17.5–19.5 micron fibers that feels soft against the skin, wicks moisture by absorbing up to 35% of its weight in sweat vapor, resists odor, and generates warmth during activity. Its ribbed cuff grips without elastic to prevent forehead marks and folds up or down for a snug cropped or slouchy fit, stretching to accommodate 21.5–23.5 inch heads and snapping back to shape. The tuque maintains fit over months of wear and washing, though it requires hand washing with liquid wool detergent (no fabric softeners) and may pill initially—pilling subsides after removal. Designed for moderate cold and layering, it sacrifices extreme cold protection for versatile comfort and breathability.
Verified claims
- Softness
- 100% merino wool with 17.5–19.5 micron fibers, no synthetic lining.
- Fit comfort
- Ribbed cuff grips without elastic, preventing forehead marks.
- Wear comfort
- Wool can absorb up to 35% of its weight in sweat vapor, resists odor, and generates warmth during activity.
- Use case
- Suitable for moderate cold and layering, not extreme cold.
- Moisture wicking
- Absorbs up to 35% of its weight in sweat vapor, staying dry to the touch.
- Odor resistance
- Resists odor-causing bacteria so the tuque stays fresh across multiple wears.
- Care
- Use liquid wool detergent; fabric softeners suppress wicking and powder detergents can abrade the fine knit.
- Fit range
- One-size ribbed knit is designed to fit about 21.5–23.5 inch adult heads, but several buyers find it snug or too tight.
- Fit longevity
- Maintains snug fit over months of daily wear and washing.
- Cuff adjustment
- Unsewn cuff folds up or down to adjust fit, gripping without pressure.
- Shape retention
- The ribbed knit springs back after folding; reshape damp if it relaxes.
- Matching accessories
- Matching merino wool accessories are sold separately to create a coordinated sustainable set.
- Durability
- Ribbed knit fits about 21.5–23.5 inch heads, adjusts via the unsewn cuff, and resists bagging with merino's 30% stretch recovery.
- Performance
- Merino absorbs sweat vapor, resists odor, retains warmth when wet, and generates heat during exertion
- Certification
- Simons has been B Corp certified since 2020, third-party validating ethical practices
- Washing
- Hand wash in cold water (max 30°C) with a gentle wool wash and dry flat.
- Shape preservation
- Reshape while damp and store flat with cedar to maintain shape and prevent moth damage.
- Pilling
- Initial pills are normal; remove with a fabric shaver and pilling subsides.
- Softness
- The 17.5–19.5 micron merino fibers bend rather than prick, so the tuque feels soft against bare skin and sits below the itch threshold.
- Warmth
- Reviewers report the tuque is warm, describing it as 'lightweight and warm' and saying it keeps their head and ears warm.
- Wool conditioning
- A conditioning wash containing lanolin, such as Eucalan, helps restore the wool's natural slip and keeps the tuque soft and resilient through seasons of wear.

Très bonne qualité
Parfaite!
J’ai baptisé ma tuque lors de la journée de grève des transports en commun. Elle est chaude et juste la bonne taille.
100% wool!
Finally found a pure wool tuque. Not sure if it has been chemically washed or not (hoping for not). Keeps my head and ears warm, though I usually put my hood up on top of my tuque for added warmth and to keep my hat from getting wet. Please keep the natural fibers coming and keep them far away from chemicals during processing.

Tuque assez chaude, laine confortable et douce. Elle a tendance à remonter un peu, ne tient pas tout à fait en place. Malgré cela, je l’apprécie beaucoup.
