Outdoor Research Spitsbergen Windstopper Beanie Black Heather, S/M

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"This is my go-to for winter hikes and frigid dog walks. It blocks wind better than most beanies I've worn, thanks to the hidden GORE-TEX band inside. The lambswool feels plush and warm without itching, and the mid-length fit doesn't ride up or squeeze."When the wind starts howling and temps plummet, the Outdoor Research Spitsbergen Beanie becomes a key part of our cold-weather layering. Named after one of the Arctic's most rugged regions, this beanie blends heritage looks with cutting-edge protection. The 100% lambswool exterior offers natural insulation, while a built-in GORE-TEX WINDSTOPPER earband quietly blocks out icy gusts right where we need it most. This updated version improves on the original with a better fit and more sustainable materials, including a recycled polyester lining. Whether we're trudging through snow-covered trails or biking across a frosty cityscape, the Spitsbergen's breathable yet windproof design keeps us comfortable without overheating. It's the hat we reach for when conditions demand more than your average knit cap.
