Ends my search for a great winter hat!
I love this hat. This is my first winter in Minnesota from a warmer place, and my other winter hats just weren't up to extended colder temps here even on short walks, much less being outside for longer periods. I tried this hat on at one trip to REI and didn't get it since I was there for something else. It made an impression, so I went back to get it. I love how lightweight it is yet insulated. It snugly covers all of my ears, not just most of them, and the brim is handy for if it starts snowing while I'm out (which it has). If it's really cold, I wear this over my balaclava, and it's perfect. I don't even look at my other winter hats since getting this!
