The cold snap that Storm Bert brought on last week was an ominous foreshadowing of what was to come. We are now in the full thrashings of the winter season, with snow on its way (yes, that includes you, Londoners). So, what if we told you there was a bobble hat that might save your head from the cold? And, what if we told you, it’s the strangest and most complex bobble hat we’ve ever come across?
So, what on earth is this Bobble Hat?
Heacham Waterproof Cold Weather Icon Bobble Hat (20% off)
This bobble hat is ahead of its time because of its:
Who knew a simple bobble hat could be so high-tech? Available in seven colours, and three sizes, the Headcham’s eco-friendly, waterproof EcoTeflon coating and Aquasealz™ membrane makes water bead on the surface of the hat, before running off. Its micro-fleece liner means ultimate warmth.
What’s more – it’s 20% off in the Sealskinz winter sale. We say, it is definitely worth a look. If anything, to look at the bright neon colour swatch. It’s a sight to behold.

You thought it couldn’t get better? There's a beanie hat… with a pocket
If you thought the fun stopped there, you’d be sorely mistaken. Just a quick gander on the Sealskinz site also revealed to us a beanie hat with a pocket on the front, which is quite brilliant idea that we’ve never considered before.

What else is in the Sealskinz winter sale? We hear you ask
While we don't recommend that you go outside during intense weather spikes, if you want to get fully kitted out we've rounded up our top three picks from SealSkinz’ winter collection that'll have you armoured up.
Upwell Waterproof Heated Thermal Glove (40% off)
Does everyone need a pair of heated gloves? Yes. It’s a treat for yourself that you won't regret. One review notes: “These gloves are a good fit and so far have kept my hands really comfortable. I have Raynaud's so I have cold hands all year round and these have helped me. The controls are easy to manage and can be turned out while being worn.”

Mautby Waterproof Warm Weather Ankle Length Sock with Hydrostop (20% off)
There’s nothing worse than having cold wet socks on a winter’s day. Labelled as their 'lightest, thinnest waterproof sock' yet, the Mautby’s Aquasealz™ membrane releases body-generated heat and moisture, while denying the entry of water. What’s more, the Hydrostop™ prevents water trickling down the leg into the top of the sock.
