I have three of these, green, tan and black. I just came back from Iceland where it was typically around 32 degrees and in the mid 20s with the wind chill. I mean it was really windy at times out in the country. I was nice and warm with my fleece cap on and wore a different one based on the colors I was wearing. Plus they are so logout weight it’s easy to fold one up and stuff it in your pocket.

It is a nice comfortable hat that is reasonably priced. It is made out of 100 percent polyester Polartec fleece which is warm, even when damp. There really isn’t a reason why you shouldn’t get one unless you like your head being cold.
I have used this fleece in several snowstorms up here in the UP of Michigan, it’s not like a polartec gen 3 fleece where the fleece doesn’t stop the wind. This fleece cap will stop the majority of the wind, some wind will get up from under the hat. You only really feel the wind when it’s blowing 20 MPH or more but it’s pretty negligible.

I’ve been searching for a beanie that fits like a certain type I got when I was in basic training and was able to find it 1 time in a px. And this one is fits and feels exactly like it. 10/10
