Three So Far

I’m so pleased I found this company. I just bought my 3rd beanie from Red Hat Factory, and have plans for my 4th. The quality of the beanies is marvelous, and they look great on my head. It’s very cool to wear a hand knitted hat. I live in the States, and how many opportunities are there for free shipping from Europe?

Discover Complete Satisfaction!

It started with an internet search for a red hat, like the ones worn by Canadian fur trappers and Jaques Cousteau. Red Hat Factory's website came right up! I was immediately intrigued by their family business model and their products! Online shopping at the Red Hat Factory is fun and easy. Their order filling and shipping are quite fast! The quality is outstanding!

Great beanies with a great story

The amount of information about the products being sold and how and where they're made was pretty great. And the passion behind why the company wanted to share their country's traditions with whoever is interested is also great. Made me feel like I was halfway around the world in Norway just going through the process of purchasing these wonderful beanies.

…a wooly cloud of brilliance on my head.

From the moment I placed the Eastfold Hand Knit Merino Wool hat from the Red Hat Company upon my head, it felt as if I were instantly transported to the icy fjords of Norway, where the crisp, salty air overwhelmed my senses with its purity. Crafted in the hinterlands of Norway, this hat is a testament to impeccable craftsmanship, its lightweight yet incredibly warm merino wool cocooning me in comfort as if it were a whisper from the north itself.

I was instantly wandering the streets of Kristiansand, with the snug warmth of the hat warding off the chill, I caught a fleeting glimpse of the renowned author, Karl Ove Knausgård, in the periphery of my vision. He was visiting his old haunts, no doubt reminiscing the inspirations of his homeland and deep in though on his next musings. Our eyes met, and he offered an approving nod—a silent acknowledgment that, though I might not hail from these lands, the spirit of the hat bridged that gap, enveloping me in a temporary kinship with the stoic, enduring essence of the Nordic people.

Later, as I stepped into a local bar, the warmth of the establishment and the hat melded into one, creating an ambiance of welcome. A glass of Aquavit was thrust into my hand, and I raised it high, exclaiming "Skål!". This wasn't just any Aquavit; it was true,, aged and rocked across the equator, infused with the spirit of adventure and the seasoned wisdom of the sea.

With the hat snugly fit, as though woven by the loving hands of a thousand grandmothers, the ethereal beauty of the snowy landscape and the mesmerizing dance of the Aurora Borealis above seemed all the more tangible. This wasn't just a hat; it was a portal to the sublime, a piece of artistry that not only protected against the elements but also connected me to the rich tapestry of Nordic history and culture.

The Eastfold Hand Knit Merino Wool hat is more than an accessory; it's a companion for the soul, crafted with such care and quality that it transcends mere functionality. It's a beacon of warmth, a symbol of the rugged yet heartwarming essence of Norway, and a nod to the enduring spirit of its people. This hat is not just an item of clothing—it's a narrative, a journey, and a heartfelt ode to the timeless allure of the Nordic way of life, their history, and wisdom.

Amazing company with great products!

I love this company. Their products are simple, authentic, gorgeous, and WARM. They do what they say. There are no visible brand labels. THAT mAKES ME SO HAPPY. And they are incredibly well made. I have a LOT of hats because I wear my hair super short…and hands down my arctic hat is my favorite. And my hat arrived all the way from Scandinavia quickly. Love the Red Hat Company and highly recommend them.

Outstanding Quality Hats!!

These hats are of exceptional quality, and are very stylish. I was so happy to purchase from a small business doing such great work. I had to order a second Eastfjord for my wife so she would stop borrowing mine. Highly recommended!

Great hats!

I absolutely love the quality and style of these hats. Great customer service when you need to ask a question and I adore the packaging. I have one away as a gift and they couldn’t guess what it was before opening it!

Great hat, no issues, but...

I was reluctant to buy from this site due to them only having reviews on Facebook. I'm happy I took the chance, because the delivery went off without a hitch and the hat is amazing.

I'd give 4,5 stars if I could, but alas. The reason I would give 4,5 stars is because of shipping options. I would like the possibility to have a cheaper option for a tracked package and delivery to a package shop. Currently shipping with tracking costs 275 NOK (~ € 27).
