La Danielle recycled fur winter cap
Recycled mink winter cap
A winter cap with character, a history, and over 25 hours of work behind it.
I craft each cap from small pieces of mink that I sew one by one. Their assembly creates a unique patchwork: a true wearable work of art, made to turn heads and accompany you through many winters.
Its small brim gives it a classic cap look. The earflaps can be worn up or down, depending on the temperature and the level of comfort desired, and are secured with magnetic snaps. The pom-pom is also removable: take it off for a sportier style, or put it back on when you feel like adding a whimsical touch.
Inside, a lightly quilted nylon lining allows the head to breathe. The cap is lightweight and comfortable to wear. Its adjustable elastic cord allows for a comfortable fit on your head.
This is the kind of piece you keep for a long time and wear with pride. And if someone stops you on the street to ask where you found it… you can tell them its story.
Note on the fur: The mink used comes from upcycled vintage coats or new scraps from coat manufacturing. Each cap thus gives new life to a beautiful material.
