The Hood for Ever

70 Years of Quality

For almost 70 years, Eisbär has stood for high-quality headwear. From Austria, for the world. What began as a small knitwear business has evolved over generations into a winter sports brand. Made famous by ski stars, grown through craftsmanship, and worn by people who are active outdoors.

2025 marks a new chapter in the Eisbär story: We are combining our knitwear expertise with contemporary design, clean lines, and honest product development. Versatility, everyday wearability, and style are at the heart of this, without losing our roots in functional outdoor sports.

FUNCTION IS SHAPED THROUGH EXCHANGE. DEVELOPED WITH PROFESSIONALS.

Our collections are based on decades of experience – with a clear focus on what people really need outdoors. Only selected high-performance models, such as Active and Pulse, are developed together with athletes. Most of our models are developed by the design team – inspired by everyday moments, leisure activities, and fashion trends.

Athletes & Partners:

ÖSV athletes & World Champions
Team Austria at the Olympic Games
Top biathletes & trail runners, among others

High-tech meets craftsmanship.

What makes Eisbär special is our knitting expertise. Our experience ensures high quality and serves as the foundation for genuine innovation.

One example: Our patented 3-layer knitting technology. Three precisely coordinated layers ensure optimal moisture transport, insulation, and comfort.

In addition to technical models such as the Active, we are also setting new standards in knitwear craftsmanship in lifestyle collections such as Alba or Pixie. Their intricate patterns and modern techniques demonstrate what is possible today in design and texture. We continuously develop this technical excellence with a team that sees knitting not as a trend, but as a calling.
