I’ve wanted to stock Heimat hats since I first met the owner Christian when he came on one of our mechanics courses. Christian gave me a hat which I have worn most days for the past couple of years and it still looks great. What I especially like is the weave which works to hold the fold in place keeping the hat in shape.
based on the traditional US navy Watch caps and finished by hand with a sophisticated knit that moulds to the shape of your head. The finest quality, made in Germany.

We first met Christian, founder of Heimat Textil, when he attended one of our mechanics courses. We have watched in admiration as he developed an increasing range of hats and garments woven in Germany. We have stocked their mechanics hat for sometime and love the quality and its great to see that same heavy gauge wool used in these cardigans.
The Eiger cardigan might have been inspired by the first mountaineers to ascend the formidable Eiger Nordwand in the Bernese Alps, but its perfectly suited to sitting by the fire with your feet up. Its knitted in Germany from a high-quality virgin wool, with a generous shawl collar, square patch pockets, and a five-button front. The sleeves and collar are attached by hand, which is more time consuming and labour intensive than using a standard machine stitch but results in a superior finish.
- 100% Virgin Wool
- Knitted in Germany
- 5-Gauge Knit
- Shawl Collar
- Patch Pockets
- Five Button Front
- Handsewn Sleeves and Collar
- Natural Self-Cleaning and Water-Resistant Properties
- Signature Stripe on Cuffs and Hem

A classic raglan finished to an impeccable standard. This lightweight 8-gauge merino long sleeve is knitted in Germany from a super fine two-ply yarn. The body is constructed in a tubular fashion, meaning there are no side seams for maximum comfort. And the emphasis here is very much on comfort. With its natural thermoregulating properties, sweat-wicking abilities, and micron fibres, it's incredibly comfortable when worn directly against the skin. Add to that the ribbed cuffs and authentic raw-edged hem, and you've got a superb piece of year-round knitwear.
- 100% Merino Wool
- Spun and Sewn in Germany
- 210g/m
- Loopwheel Knit
- Tubular Construction
- Attached Neckband with Overlock Stitch
- Mulesing Free
- Raw Edge Hem
We’ve been after these hats since the companies owner Christian came on our Mechanics course and gifted me one. Two or three years later and I still wear the hat most days and I am very happy to have them in stock at Bolt.
Made in Germany the hats are an incredible quality and fit. What I like best is the different weaves which mean the hat stays in shape on the fold lines.
Based on the original WW2 USN Wool Hat.
The style is commonly referred as "watch cap" as it was used by soldiers to protect them from wind and weather when they were on deck for their watch.
This version has a double fold to adjust the rim to wear it either above the ears or to cover them when needed.
It is hand finished, due to the sophisticated knitting technique it will mould to your head just after a few wears.

Did you know, that the Bobble on the top of a hat was actually a functional feature? it was designed to soften the blow when bumping your head when maneuvering through the cramped quarters of a ship or submarine.
