ColumbiaUnisex Trail Shaker Beanie

I have to state that I've never been a fan of wearing hats. I think it has something to to do with being made to wear an assortment of wacky home-knitted ones as a child (you know the type; huge baubles, tassels and ear flaps like Eeyore...) so I think I must have made a conscious decision as an adult NOT to wear them if at all possible! However, with adulthood came baldness, leading to a shaved head and the inevitable need to avoid looking ridiculous by NOT wearing a hat in Baltic weather.So, this hat. It's great! I have a variety of beanies these days and the main problem with the thick woolen variety is that they take ages to dry after being washed and can't be easily folded up and put in a coat pocket without making me look like I have a second belly (or a third moob...)This one, being made of micro-fleece, is well stitched together, lightweight and thin. It's just as warm as my much thicker hats and actually suits my ridiculously shaped head a little better. It's long enough to be pulled down completely over my ears and back of my neck, with just enough 'flop' on top to make me look like a middle-aged hipster (think 'David Beckham' rather than 'Noddy.') I like the mesh-covered heat reflective thermal panel on the inside of the hat and if you're not keeping your head toasty with it, it'll do nicely for keeping your take-away sausage rolls hot. Actually, you could probably do both...One of the best things about this hat is that it's easily washed at 30 degrees, can be tumble dried on a low heat setting and dries naturally in only a couple of hours. In fact, this was such a good buy that I'm planning to buy another one just like this so that I can wear them alternately.

Thin, so it fits easily into a pocket. Stretches enough to cover the ears and lower head. The metalised lining cuts wind and adds more warmth than might be expected from the hat's light weight.

Ottimo prodotto anche se a primo impatto non sembra faccia quello che promette, invece è un ottimo sotto cappello o addirittura anche berretto termico molto isolante, l’esterno è micropile all’interno è un tessuto isolante color argento che non irrita a contatto con la pelle, super isolante provato a temperature rigide con vento forte non ha deluso le aspettative, ho avuto la possibilità di provarlo in negozio, le misure sono giuste ed il prodotto corrisponde al fotografico. Consiglio anche lo scaldacollo dello stesso materiale, vedrete che non ve ne pentirete!

thin and not as thick as I was thinking. I will keep it and see.

Je suis fan de ce genre de bonnet en polaire, fin et facile à entretenir et je trouve celui-ci vraiment très bien. La qualité est là donc je vous recommande cet achat. J'espère avoir pu vous aider grâce à ma propre expérience, ce serait gentil de l'indiquer en cochant si c’est le cas
