Whether belaying your climbing partner or heading to the hill for a couple of powder runs, the Arcteryx Classic Beanie Toque will keep you warm and comfortable. Built with 100 wool for unmatched warmth and insulation and lined with a soft thermal band, your noggin will stay cozy all winter long.
Warm, but a little snug as the liner restricts stretchiness.
I bought this beanie last winter, and didn't realize it at the time, but it has a liner that covers my ears. It is very warm, even in freezing N.W. weather, but the liner somewhat restricts the hat from being stretchy, and as a consequence it can feel very snug on my head. (I wear a size 7-1/4" baseball hat) Well made, good quality hat, I just sometimes wish it wasn't quite to tight, and would stretch down over my ears another 1/4 to 1/2 inch.
Stylish and Warm
Originally purchased the blue, used it skiing for a week with temps in the low to mid teens; my head stayed warm as toast! Love it so much I purchased the brown one too. I use it for hiking on weekends also. I have a large head and it is large enough to cover my ears and forehead. Recommend!
Very nice hat!
Wasn't sure at first as this hat didn't "look as cool" as the two other Arc'teryx beanies I got, but now I love it. It is very comfortable to wear. These guys make great beanies period!
