Product questions
Are Zaini hats waterproof?
The Zaini hats are made from 100% acrylic which is extremely durable towards rain, snow and wind. It is not waterproof as such, but it will resist rain without altering the hat; we would not advise using it as a swimming cap...
Will it itch?
Zaini uses super soft acrylic yarn, which is soft on skin and won’t irritate you.
Do you sell children's beanies?
Yes! We have kids-specific beanies, and some styles are available in both adult and kids sizes so the family can match! Shop our kids beanies here.
Do you only sell beanies?
No. Hats are the original Zaini product, but we also sell headbands, slipper socks, neck warmers and helmet covers, with the same Zaini design and style which are available to buy online here and at all our fairs we attend. We have a long product list for the future of Zaini which are all in progress designing new products right now.
Can I wash my Zaini hat?
Yes, out acrylic beanies, bobble hats, neck warmers, slipper socks and headbands can all be washed to keep them looking great. Either wash by hand or machine wash on a gentle or dedicates cycle in a pillow case to prevent any pulled threads.
Where are your products made?
All of our hats and accessories are designed by our team here in the UK and now due to demand are hand-made in Shanghai, China by Kelly and her lovely team. It is a socially forward, family-run company that we've visited multiple times over the past few years and we trust the way they operate fully. We continue to explore options for producing in Portugal, Serbia, and the UK, but currently haven't found a supplier who can offer the same quality and reliability, and so we have maintained a strong relationship with Kelly and her team for over a decade.
How does your sizing work?
We have sizes for both adults and children, and sizing can vary on the item style. Please check the individual product page for sizing information.
My friend has a particular Zaini but I can't see it on your website, where can I find it?
Many of our styles are produced in limited quantities, but we do sometimes bring styles back. Please contact us if there's a particular style you are looking for, or sign up to our email newsletter and we can let you know when new stock arrives.
What materials do you use?
Our materials vary throughout the range, but most beanies and bobble hats are made from Super Soft Acrylic for durability, warmth and a non-itch feel.
Please check the details on individual product pages for full details.
