Sauna hats to keep you cool
Get a sauna hat handcrafted by masters.
Typically we Finns don’t wear a sauna hat.
However in Estonian saunas and Russian banyas it is a tradition to wear a hat.
I started researching and developing sauna hats in 2023 after I moved to Estonia and learned about local sauna customs.
Now you get to enjoy the results.
