We analyze it like an editorial team would. We don't sell it.

In the certified recycled polyester beanie segment, the Andy differs from the Wind-S in two construction characteristics: the single layer with a pronounced rib texture and a noticeably wider side embroidery area — 12×4.5 cm on all four sides, front, back, right and left. It is a beanie designed for anyone who wants maximum customisation around the hat's full perimeter, not just on the front.

The single-layer ribbed construction in GRS and OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified recycled polyester offers a visually more defined texture than smooth circular knit, with an aesthetic profile closer to fashion beanies than sporty ones. The 82-gram weight — higher than the Wind-S — is the result of a denser knit. The 9-colour palette, smaller than the Wind-S, includes a melange variant (Light Grey Melange) and Acid Green — two aesthetically distinctive options not found in the standard range.

It is the choice for brands with an urban aesthetic and for anyone wanting a beanie with visible customisation on every side — a specific requirement for some staff uniform or premium merchandise applications. The composition note indicates the material is undergoing a batch update; always refer to the inner label for the up-to-date composition.

01
Embroidery· Molto buono
82%
The Andy has an exceptional embroidery surface for a beanie: 12×4.5 cm on all four sides — front, back, right and left. This is an unusual feature that sets it apart from most beanies on the market, where only the front is easily embroiderable. The ribbed knit requires a stabilising backing. Prefer simple logos with defined lines — the rib texture can blur fine details below 3 mm. Not compatible with 3D puff embroidery.
Max area 12x4.5
02
Patch — Woven / PVC / Faux leather· Sufficiente
62%
Patches applicable via perimeter stitching on the front or cuff. Heat sealing is not recommended on elastic ribbed knit. Maximum recommended size: 6×4 cm so as not to distort the knit structure.
03
Screen printing· Non compatibile
0%
Read the technical analysis
The elastic ribbed knit structure makes direct screen printing impossible: the surface is not flat and deforms under the squeegee. Not applicable on this format.
04
DTF — Direct to Film· Non compatibile
0%
Read the technical analysis
The beanie's elastic ribbed structure does not allow the uniform pressing required for DTF. The application heat can compromise the knit's elastic properties.
05
Sublimation· Non compatibile
0%
Read the technical analysis
The three-dimensional knit structure does not allow the uniform heat application needed for sublimation as an aftermarket technique. All-over sublimation is only possible at the manufacturing stage.
06
DTG — Direct to Garment· Non compatibile
0%
Read the technical analysis
The beanie's three-dimensional elastic structure prevents uniform contact with the DTG print head. Not applicable.
