Fall/Winter 2013 Collection coalheadwear.com
Welcome to the Fall / Winter 2013 collection. Fall/Winter 2013 Collection
A collection of headwear and accessories inspired by the world around us, from the city streets to the tallest mountain peaks and everywhere in between. Coal is the product of our collective creative outlets. No matter what you do or where you do it, Coal will be there keeping you warm, with uncompromising quality and style. In this season’s offering you will see a variety of colors, more prints and patterns, and more fine and unique materials.
History
Mission
In 2002 a group of friends got together to start a company that reflected their shared vision: headwear should be more than an accessory. At the time, hats, knit beanies, and the like were little more than a commodity that brands put their logo on. Coal chose not to. We saw an opportunity to provide the market with accessories that took fit, fashion, and function equally seriously, and looked at headwear as an extension of you, your identity and your lifestyle. Design was—and still is—the main factor of every style. Not only from the color, yarn / material type, or subtle branding, but to how the style actually fit and looked when worn. No longer was the beanie a standard size and shape that each company decorated with different patterns, colors and giant logos. It’s now all about design, uncompromising attention to detail, and superior components.
Coal was founded on the belief that headwear is more than an accessory. It’s part of you, your identity, and your lifestyle. We build this idea into each of our designs by using quality materials and exacting detail, and crafting styles that are as unique as you are.

In our Fall / Winter 2013 collection we introduce new and innovative designs and even finer materials, from pure Mongolian cashmere to domestic wool felt and a North American alpaca / Merino wool blend.

End Notes.
USA Wool Felt
Merino Wool
Our US-made wool felt hats are made by a manufacturer that has been around for over 100 years. They have perfected the art of making wool felt fedoras, cloches and other highly crafted headwear. The wool they use comes from Texas and goes through a rigorous process where the raw wool is first formed into loose cone shaped bodies from there the cones are treated with pressure and hot water repeatedly. The combination of the pressure and heat begins to felt the wool fibers. The felt becomes tighter and denser as the process continues. Once the bodies are ready for use the are blocked by hand, the brims trimmed and shaped, and the final trims, lining and labeling applied.
Merino is an amazing yarn with the ability to be both refined in look and tough in performance. Merino wool is not only finer and softer than other wool, it also has technical properties akin to what most people look for in synthetic performance fibers, such as wicking and insulation.
Cashmere Our cashmere comes from goats that reside in the mountainous plateaus of Mongolia. At this high altitude and in the harsh weather conditions, the goat grows a thick coat of soft hair that— compared to other fibers— has more insulating power, providing warmth without weight and bulk. The cost of cashmere comes from limited supply and the difficulty to gather the fleece.
USA Alpaca Merino Our Made in the USA alpaca/Merino yarn is a wonderful blending of two great fibers. Alpaca is a luxurious and silky fiber that is soft while still maintaining durability. The natural fiber is similar to that of sheep’s wool, but warmer and without the prickly feel. Because the fleece does not contain lanolin it is hypoallergenic. Merino wool— with its great technical properties—is a perfect accompaniment to alpaca. With the two combined you get a hat that is well insulated, soft and moisture wicking.
Lambswool Lambswool is different from other wool in that wool fibers are shorter, making them softer. Lambswool characteristically is softer and more slippery in-hand, compared to other wool, making it a great fiber for beanies.
Lambswool Angora Our lambswool/Angora blend allows the silky Angora fiber to be used in a variety of applications. Angora on its own is incredibly soft, even softer than cashmere but not as sturdy, making it difficult to spin into yarn. Blending it with lambswool—plus a touch of nylon— allows this fiber to be made into beanies, scarves and gloves with years of wearability.
