HATS

The right hat solves a specific problem, warmth in winter or sun protection in summer, not just a finishing touch on an outfit. This collection covers both ends: knit winter styles and wide-brim sun hats.

Knit Beanies and Headbands for Cold Weather

Sherpa's knit hats and headbands trap heat around the ears and scalp, where the body loses warmth fastest in cold weather. A snug, stretch-knit fit works better here than a loose one, since gaps let heat escape. These pair naturally with our gloves for full cold-weather coverage on days when hands and ears both need protection.

Wide-Brim Sun Hats for Real UV Protection

The boonie and braided sun hats in this collection offer a wider brim than a standard cap, shading the ears and neck as well as the face, areas a baseball cap leaves exposed. Look for a breathable weave, since ventilation matters as much as brim size on hot days. Combined with a pair of polarized sunglasses, a wide-brim hat covers most of the sun exposure a face and eyes deal with outdoors.

Packable Versus Structured Styles

Braided paper-weave hats hold their shape well for travel and daily errands, while softer boonie styles pack down more easily for hiking or trips where bag space is limited.

A Few Things Worth Knowing

• A snug knit beanie retains more warmth than a loose one, sizing down slightly is usually the right call

• Wide-brim sun hats work best paired with a chin cord or strap on windy days to keep them in place

• Free 2-3 day priority shipping applies on orders over $75, the same policy across our accessories collection
