The Disarmingly Charming Leelu Hat

New Yorkers, it’s way past time to ditch the ubiquitous slouchy black beanie in exchange for something softer-looking and less cookie-cutter. The difference between the handcrafted Leelu hat and a mass-produced hat is as vast as the difference between a lake and the ocean. The responsibly sourced Leelu hat is made by Nepal artisans using 100% super fine wool. Slip it on and feel the difference.

The Leelu hat’s chic vintage look vibes with everything from a classic wool trench to a puffer jacket. If you long for a winter hat with a sweet, nostalgic look, you really must visit The French Knot’s website to sneak a peek at the Leelu, Sedona Earflap, and the Meadow Bucket Hat. They have lovely slippers, too.

The Leelu is fated to become a beloved winter hat or memorable gift for someone special. Buh-bye, black wool beanie!
