great little beanie
It looks cool, the color is great (got the blue). It is short, barely covers the tops of the ears, but that is how it was designed, intentionally. It is a different look then the usual beanie that fully covers the ears. Turns out, it is really plenty warm enough down to at least the mid-20's and the ear exposure does not bother me. The hat is fully lined by fleece (unlike most, which only have a fleece band around the ears) so no wind gets to your head. I would not wear this for long periods of time in below 20F temps, because your earlobe will freeze, but other then that it is super warm- actually better then the others for the top of your head, where most of the heat escapes. So if you are outside for an hour or two in any weather, it's fine, and it'll be good all day above 20 or 25F. Like I said, surprisingly the ear exposure is not such a big deal-- when I tried the hat on I immediately got the RMA form set to return the thing, but I tried it out and was quite pleasantly surprised. And it looks cooler with a little ear showing-- sexy, man-- chicks dig a little ear, y'know what I mean?

fleece beanie
very comfortable,nice fit

This is a great beanie.
I really like this and will be buying more. I love how it fits my large head, the fleece lining is brilliant, and it actually keeps my head and ears warm. I recommend this one, especially if you have a large head like myself.

Wonderful!
This hat is the perfect combination of warm, fast drying wool but doesn't itch because of the wonderfully soft fleece lining! Love it!

Over all a very tightly made and warm hat
Fit is tight but not too tight. Covers your ears well and keeps your head warm. Construction is top quality and I will be purchasing an other in Black - I have the blue. Because of the wool material used it makes a great workout and after workout hat - if you don't mind getting it a little sweaty. Overall I have had it for 3 months and I wear it often as I have a shaved head.
