Imperial 6015 The Mammoth Cuffed Beanie with Heathered Knit and Grey Fleece Lining
The Imperial The Mammoth Cuffed Beanie (Imperial 6015) is the warmth leader among Imperial cuffed knits. Its 70/30 acrylic/polyester yarn is worked into a heathered, mohair-look knit, a grey fleece lining covers the interior, and a matching pom-pom tops the 8 inch body and 3 inch cuff. The laser etched suede patch on the back of the cuff marks it as part of the premium tier of the Imperial hat collection, and for buyers assembling cold-weather kits from our wholesale headwear range, it is the style to hand crews who stay outside the longest.

Quick Answer: When the Mammoth Is the Right Knit
Pick the Imperial 6015 Mammoth cuffed beanie when warmth is the first requirement and looks still matter. The fleece lining insulates and blocks wind-chill through the knit, the heathered surface hides soil and wear better than flat solids, and the matched pom keeps it retail-ready. If the program instead needs a plain, logo-first canvas, the Mogul solid cuffed knit is the cleaner choice from the same family.
Construction and Materials
The 6015 pairs a 70/30 acrylic/polyester heathered yarn with a brushed, mohair-look face that gives the knit visible depth. Inside, a grey fleece lining runs the interior, so the fabric against the forehead is soft pile rather than raw knit. The proportions match the rest of the Imperial cuffed family, an 8 inch body over a 3 inch cuff, and the pom-pom is matched to the knit for a lodge-shop finish. The laser etched suede patch on the back of the cuff completes the factory presentation.
Fit and Wear
Worn with the cuff at full depth, the Mammoth covers ears completely with fleece behind every inch of knit, which is what separates it from double-knit styles when the temperature drops and wind picks up. The heathered texture pairs as easily with technical shells as with wool coats, so it moves from job site to weekend without looking like issued equipment. The fleece adds a touch of structure, helping the beanie hold a tidy shape rather than collapsing flat.
Decoration Guidance
The brushed, mohair-look surface swallows fine stitch detail, so treat the Mammoth as a patch-first canvas: sewn-on leather, suede, or woven patches on the cuff read beautifully against the heathered ground. If embroidery is required, keep designs bold and simple with heavier satin stitches, and always sample on the actual knit. Leave the back cuff position to the factory suede patch and center front designs on the 3 inch band.
Where the Mammoth Fits Best
| Setting | Why It Works |
|---|---|
| Mountain operations and lift crews | Fleece lining sustains all-day outdoor comfort |
| Construction in cold climates | Real insulation under hoods and hard hat liners policy permitting |
| Resort retail walls | Heathered texture and pom sell as premium merchandise |
| Outdoor guide and outfitter brands | Mohair-look knit matches the category aesthetic |
| Corporate winter gifting | Reads as a boutique purchase rather than a giveaway |
| Booster and alumni merchandise | Texture differentiates it from standard team knits |
| Farm, ranch, and equipment brands | Patch decoration suits heritage branding |
| Winter festival staff kits | Warmth for long outdoor shifts, style for photos |
Wholesale and Program Buying
Buyers usually slot the Mammoth as the premium warm option inside a broader Imperial headwear order: Moguls for the wide roster, Mammoths for outdoor-heavy roles and retail. Because the heathered colors are neutral by design, one or two colorways cover most brand palettes without demanding an exact logo match. It orders alongside caps and visors in the same bulk hat program, keeping seasonal purchasing consolidated.
Buyer and Reorder Workflow
Sample the 6015 first if patch artwork is planned; the heathered surface changes how colors read, and approving on the physical knit avoids surprises. After approval, programs typically reorder each autumn under the same style number, adjusting only the colorway split. Keeping 6015 in the spec sheet matters because fleece-lined and unlined Imperial knits look similar in photos but wear very differently outdoors.
Who Buys the 6015 and Why
Operations managers buy it for crews who measure winter in hours outside, not minutes. Merchandise buyers at resorts and outfitters buy it because heathered pom knits sell at retail while elevating the brand look. Promotional buyers pick it when the gift has to feel substantial in hand, and the fleece interior does exactly that the moment the recipient puts it on.
Choosing Between the Mammoth and Its Companions
| Style | Knit Character | Lining | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Imperial 6015 Mammoth | Heathered mohair-look | Grey fleece | Coldest assignments, premium retail |
| Imperial 6017 Baniff | Jacquard double knit | Second knit layer | Patterned merchandise programs |
| Imperial 6020 Mogul | Solid acrylic | Jersey | Embroidery-first uniform wear |
| Imperial 6012 Edelweiss | Cuffed knit | Knit | Alternate cuffed silhouette |
Our Recommendation
For any program where beanies are worn for warmth rather than fashion, standardize on the Mammoth for outdoor roles and let indoor staff take the lighter knits. Its patch-friendly cuff, fleece interior, and matched pom make it the piece people keep for years. Pair it with the Baniff patterned pom knit when the retail side of the order wants a jacquard companion.
Alternatives and Replacement Styles
If fleece is unnecessary, the Mogul provides the same cuff geometry with a lighter jersey lining, and the Imperial 6014 Montage pom beanie keeps the pom silhouette on a standard knit. Programs can move between these styles without re-engineering artwork, since all share the 3 inch cuff decoration band.
What Sets the Mammoth Apart
The combination is the point: a heathered mohair-look face that photographs like boutique knitwear, a true fleece lining rather than a token strip, classic 8 inch and 3 inch cuffed proportions, and factory suede-patch branding. Most warm beanies deliver one or two of those; the 6015 carries all four under a single style number.

Care and Durability
Brush the mohair-look surface occasionally to keep the heathered loft even, air dry after snow, and avoid heat that could flatten the fleece pile. The 70/30 acrylic/polyester yarn resists fading, and the lining shields the knit from interior abrasion, so the Mammoth typically stays presentation-grade across multiple winters of daily wear.
Frequently Asked Questions
What fabric is the Imperial 6015 Mammoth made from?
The knit is a 70/30 acrylic/polyester blend worked into a heathered, mohair-look surface, lined inside with grey fleece.
Is the Mammoth warmer than other Imperial cuffed beanies?
Yes. The full grey fleece lining insulates beyond what double-knit or jersey-lined styles provide, making it the warmth leader of the family.
Does the 6015 come with a pom-pom?
Yes, the pom-pom is matched to the knit color for a coordinated, retail-ready finish.
How big is the Mammoth beanie?
It follows the classic Imperial cuffed proportion: an 8 inch tall body folded into a 3 inch cuff.
What kind of decoration works best on this beanie?
Sewn-on patches in leather, suede, or woven formats read best against the brushed heathered surface; fine embroidery detail tends to sink into the knit.
Where is the Imperial patch located on the 6015?
The laser etched suede patch sits on the back of the cuff, leaving the front band open for your own branding.
Can fine-detail embroidery run on the Mammoth?
Small lettering and thin lines are not recommended on the mohair-look knit; bold, simple marks with heavier satin stitching hold up far better.
Why does the heathered color help in daily work use?
Heathered yarn hides soil, lint, and wear far better than flat solid knits, keeping issued headwear presentable longer.
Who is the typical buyer for the 6015?
Mountain operations, cold-climate contractors, outdoor guide brands, and resort retail buyers who need genuine warmth with a premium look.
How should the Mammoth be cared for?
Air dry after wet conditions, keep it away from high heat, and brush the surface lightly to maintain the loft of the mohair-look knit.
