Cold Weather Hunting Hat

Looking for a great cold weather hunting hat that covers the ears when the temps start really dipping.

Been eyeing up these (2) hats. Anybody have any experience with theses hats or can you recommend another hat.

Thanks

I got a rabbit fur trapper style hat off Amazon. I can’t vouch for how terribly the rabbits were treated but it’s super warm and relatively inexpensive and light

Winter Hat Help

Looking for some thoughts on a hat for winter hunts (and use at home as we're outside quite a bit through winter with the animals). Say a temp range of 0-30. If it's below zero I'm just grabbing the trapper hat and not worrying about a brim. Mix of active and inactive which makes selection a...

I used the Kuiu Kenai hat this year and was really happy with it. Definitely too warm for me when I was moving, but awesome when I was stationary. Blocked the wind and kept my head warm.

I have the Alpacas of Montana hat and love it!. Mine did stop the wind and it was almost too warm. I was wearing it in temps of zero to the upper 20's and if on the move I Had to take it off or my head began to sweat.

I dislike earflaps due to muffling sound and like the brim of a ballcap, my solution

Keeps my neck and face warm without the tightness of a balaclava, allows normal hearing and if you buy the overhelmet size allows wearing cap underneath without movement restriction.

One of my friends has this hat and loves it. I tried it but I prefer the Sitka Blizzard, although the Kuiu protects the cheeks and sides of the face better. Another friend tried both and preferred the Kuiu. I think you’ll love it.
