Owen Barry Sheepskin Beanie Hat - Deane

Our Unisex Deane Sheepskin beanie is great pull on hat, so easy and comfortable to wear.

Nice and warm in soft sheepskin it easily covers your ears, plus for further protection, you can turn down the cuff/band of sheepskin for extra depth when required.

Our standard hat size is 58cms, 58cms is measured around the circumference of your head, just above your ears and across the forehead, the “natural” position for a hat to sit.  We find this to be a universally easy unisex fit, (many of our hat styles are design to appeal to a unisex audience).   All sheepskin has an amount of natural stretch and elasticity, also of course, if there is a fair amount of wool, this will bed down a little over time.

If you have a particularly small or large head and would like a bespoke fitting hat, please contact us via email or phone.

Hurricane Merino Curly

Hurricane Curly Merino Skin has been a long-time favourite in the Owen Barry Shearling collection.

It is a hard wearing skin with a stunning texture in its curly wool.

The outside of the pelt has a leather or slight Napalan finish applied, Napalan is both a protective and a fashion finish, the leather surface can offer more protection against staining and grubbiness than a standard suede.

The Hurricane napalan has an aged look which it distresses more over time accentuating the vintage look,  this makes Hurricane Napalan our first choice for Aviator type jackets, it also gives hats & accessories a real outdoors feel.

Snow Cap - Sometimes we select the Hurricane to have snow-capped wool,  this tipping effect gives a stunning texture and emphasises the curly finish by giving a depth of shading to the wool.

Merino Sueded Sheepskin

Five generations of the Barry family have been tanning and selecting sheepskin and leathers, so when it comes to choosing the finest, we feel we have a pretty good inherent knowledge.

Merino Ironed Sheepskin is recognised as being the finest shearling in the marketplace, these exquisite skins have a plush velvet-like ironed wool and a super silky suede, they are medium to lightweight,  the perfect skin for the finest sheepskin garment.

Merino sheepskin has a way of "falling" when manufactured is stunning, second to none and the "handle" of these pelts has to be felt to be believed - it is buttery soft and supersensuous like silk. 

Merino skins are available in Suede or Napalan finish, this skin is perfect for any occasion and can be worn all season long, in fact, it will become so special, it is doubtful you will want to disrobe come spring !!
