The PP sauna hat is the most unexpected piece in the PP range and the most naturally rooted: made from natural wool, designed specifically for the extreme heat of the sauna, and available in nine colourways. It has become one of PP's most gifted items.

What the PP sauna hat is. The sauna hat is a traditional Scandinavian and Eastern European garment worn in the sauna to protect the head from the extreme radiant heat at ceiling level. Without a hat, the head absorbs more heat than the body — creating the physical discomfort that limits sauna session length. The hat insulates the head, allowing longer, more comfortable sessions.

Why natural wool. Wool is the correct material for the sauna context: it is naturally fire-retardant, it regulates temperature in extreme heat, and it is 100% natural and 100% biodegradable — consistent with the PP natural materials philosophy. Synthetic sauna hats release microplastics in the extreme heat and humidity of the sauna environment. The PP natural wool sauna hat is the philosophically coherent choice for the PP natural fabric buyer.

The nine colourways. The PP sauna hat is available in nine colourways — check pieterpetros.com for the current confirmed range.

Care. Hand wash in cool water with a wool-specific detergent. Squeeze gently; do not wring. Reshape while damp and lay flat to dry. Do not machine wash and do not hang dry.
