Nelson
The beanie in GOTS-certified organic cotton — natural, hypoallergenic, with a supply chain verified from cultivation to assembly. GOTS certified: the most complete organic-textile standard, covering fibre, production, chemistry and working conditions along the whole chain. Ideal for front and side embroidery on soft cotton, up to 12×4.5 cm. Great for urban and lifestyle brands — 5 colours including light air-force, bordeaux, light grey, black and navy. One size.
We analyze it like an editorial team would. We don't sell it.
Among the beanies in the Atlantis catalogue, the Nelson is the only model with GOTS certification — the Global Organic Textile Standard, the most complete international standard for organic textiles. Unlike GRS, which certifies recycled content, or OEKO-TEX Standard 100, which tests the finished product, GOTS certifies the entire organic-cotton supply chain: from pesticide- and GMO-free cultivation, to spinning, to dyeing, to assembly, verifying the chemical criteria of production and the working conditions at the production sites too. The Nelson is the choice for those who want a beanie with the broadest guarantee available in winter textiles.
The double-layer ribbed-knit cuffed construction is the classic winter cap — soft to the touch, elastic, with the tactile naturalness of organic cotton that immediately sets it apart from polyester. Embroidery is the only compatible customisation technique: front, back and sides up to 12×4.5 cm. Organic cotton is an excellent embroidery substrate — a stable natural fibre, good stitch hold, vivid colours against dyed cotton.
It is the natural choice for urban, lifestyle and premium brands that want a beanie with a material story verified at every step of the chain. It is not the right product for those after a technical beanie with an insulating lining or a wide palette: five variants — light air-force, bordeaux, light grey, black, navy — are the entirety of the colour offering, all toned and suited to a premium positioning.

The most comprehensive certification that exists for textiles. GOTS verifies that the fibre is organic and that the entire production chain — from spinning to dyeing to sewing — meets precise chemical, environmental and social criteria: no harmful substances, no child labour, controlled wastewater treatment. It does not measure the product's CO₂ impact, but it covers everything else. Every certified facility is audited annually by an accredited independent body. The certificate for this product can be verified on the public GOTS database.

Streetwear brand
The GOTS organic cotton beanie is the premium format of sustainable streetwear: the certification covers the whole supply chain, the material has a tactile naturalness polyester cannot replicate, and the palette — light air-force, bordeaux, light grey, black, navy — aligns perfectly with contemporary urban aesthetics. For streetwear brands communicating material quality, the Nelson is the most verified choice in the Atlantis catalogue.
Creator / Influencer merch
For creators with a premium positioning or a sustainability-conscious audience, the Nelson is one of the beanies with the most solid material story available in the Atlantis catalogue. GOTS is the most rigorous verification standard for organic textiles — a strong narrative argument for those communicating their products to fans.
