I would recommend this hat to anyone who is looking for something to keep you warm no matter what activity you are taking part in from climbing to hillwalking. i do a wide range of different activities and find this hat great no matter what i am doing. It has an internal headband which is great for providing warmth but also keeping the hat snug to the head which means it doesn't slide up exposing the bottoms of your ears like most do. In my opinion it is also a very stylish looking hat and feel great wearing it whilst out around town buying new gear when the weather is abit nippy!
