Coal Headwear, Made for it.
We make stylish headwear that adapts to your versatile lifestyle. Our mission is to deliver the style you love with the perfect fit, technical excellence, and eco-conscious design in every piece.
Inspired by tastemakers, outdoor adventurers and urban actives.
In 2002 a group of friends with a passion for headwear and a shared love of snowboarding and the outdoors— came together to start a company that reflected their lifestyle and shared vision: Headwear is more than an accessory. At the time, hats and beanies were little more than a commodity, another place to put a brand logo. Coal saw an opportunity to provide styles that took fit, function, and fashion seriously while knowing that headwear is an extension of you and your lifestyle. Design, quality, and style have guided us, and over 20 years later, we remain dedicated to making headwear more than an accessory.
Top quality materials and attention to detail have put Coal in a class of its own for two decades.
These are Coal's own product descriptions. Each one names the mountain and the street in the same sentence. Pick a side at the top of the page and the matching half lights up.

This limited FW26 beanie is made with sustainably sourced sheep’s wool and designed in collaboration with snowboarding icon Torstein Horgmo. Torstein came to us with the request for a beanie that blends comfort, natural materials, and low-impact product. The result reflects his values as much as his style.
Created with Japanese icon Kazu Kokubo and his fashion label Nomadik, this military fleece beanie blends utility and identity.
The Frena Baggy Thick Knit Cuff Beanie, $31.95. Scott's first Coal beanie was The Frena and he's been living in the style ever since. The Frena Baggy is a slightly bigger version of the Frena, with a little more of a relaxed fit, making it Scott's choice for snowboarding thanks to the oversized feel.

We offer a range of unique fits to ensure high performance during life’s peak moments. Whether your head is large or small, or you’re looking for a more shallow or deep fit, we have an option for you.
Merino wool aides in normalizing body temperature by supplying warmth without being too hot and by wicking away moisture. Like other natural fibers, Merino is water absorbent, however even when wet it holds onto heat, therefore you won’t get cold after getting soaked from rain or sweat.
Our recycled cotton yarn comes from a mill that specializes in repurposing waste from the apparel manufacturing process. The yarn is spun from re-milled fabric scraps and clippings. The base color of the original material is retained therefore less dyes and chemicals are used in the process.
Alpaca is also silkier and contains no lanolin which makes it a hypoallergenic fiber. It is prized for creating ultra soft and luxurious yarns. By combining Alpaca and Merino together we are combining the best properties of both fibers, creating a wonderfully soft yarn.
Lambswool fibers are shorter than other wool, which makes the fibers softer. This creates a yarn that is plush and more silky in-hand, making it a great material for beanies.
PET (polyethylene terephthalate) is a plastic resin and also a form of polyester. Our recycled yarn comes from a certified mill that repurposes post-consumer waste in to usable materials. By reusing the material instead of virgin resins there is a reduction in energy consumption and reduced environmental impact.
Polylana® is a sustainable yarn blended from virgin and recycled materials to create an innovative fiber with the same characteristics as wool and acrylic.
Fine acrylic yarn is both durable and soft. Acrylic is a great alternative to wool; it is non-itchy but like wool it is very warm and can be used in variety of different styles.
Warm and insulating polyester fleece is used in a variety of our technical accessories to keep you bundled during the cold winter days. Fleece offers many of the same insulating properties of wool without the weight or skin sensitivity associated with wool products.
If you’ve ever had a beanie stretch out on you after only a few wears, or pill up after one wash, it can be a bummer. Every day we work to make better accessories that will stand the tests of time and active use. We source high quality materials that make sense for both daily wear and intense outdoor activities.
Coal requires all factories to comply with our vendor service guidelines. This outlines all laws and regulations our vendors are required to follow. On top of the Coal VSG, all our factory partners are WRAP certified.
Coal is always striving to be mindful and improve our footprint on the environment. In our outerwear apparel, we're proud to use REPREVE fabric, made from recycled bottles. For packaging, we use Bio-logiQ polybags to reduce our use of virgin plastics.
We manufacture both in the U.S. and overseas. All of our manufacturing partners are held to strict standards of equity, safety, and human-centered policies which we monitor regularly for compliance.
97% of this hat is made from recycled plastic including the mesh paneling, sweat band, main crown and adjuster.
That line is on two Trails Project hats: The Seymour Trails Project Bucket Hat, $55.00, and The Hardin Trails Project Cap, $42.00. Both come in three rich color ways: terracotta, olive and black.
These are the BEST beanies ever. They cover my ears completely and are not itchy. Perfectly snug without feeling too constricting and the softest beanie around.
I have a huge head, but it fits perfectly...super lightweight, and it's simply a cool design. Love Coal, and there's a reason I only buy hats from their collection now.
I ordered two beanies from Coal, and they are both incredible. I contacted customer service, they were quick to respond and went above and beyond to help me out.

Last fall we bid farewell to our waterfront home in Magnolia near the infamous Ballard Locks and moved across the canal to a building of our own. While the Teriyaki’s not as good, we love our neighbors and have half a dozen microbreweries to choose from for after work socializing.
