Named after the Torc Waterfall in Killarney, Co Kerry, Ireland. The Torc Falls Beanie features a central cascading cable that is flanked on both sides by a twisted cable. The cascading cable mimics the flow of the waterfall as makes its way down the hillside and the twisted cables represent the steep steps that ascend beside the falls allowing you access to some of the most breath-taking views of Killarney National Park.

The Torc Falls Beanie is designed to fit a head circumference of between 53 – 58 cm (21 – 23”).
