Patagonia Better Sweater Beanie Black, L/XL

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I have been wearing this beanie on everything from morning trail runs to full casual days in town, and the sweater-knit fleece feels noticeably softer than a standard knit hat. The doubled cuff keeps it snug without squeezing, and it layers cleanly under a hood when the temperature really drops.""A great beanie is one of those things you do not think much about until you have a truly good one, and then you reach for it constantly. The Patagonia Better Sweater Fleece Beanie is exactly that kind of hat. Built from 100% recycled polyester sweater-knit fleece with a soft fleece interior and heathered yarns throughout, it brings a warmth and texture that feels closer to a favorite sweater than a standard cold-weather accessory. Whether it is riding in a jacket pocket for a cool morning hike or pulled low on a blustery afternoon walk, it delivers comfortable, reliable warmth without any bulk or fuss. The relaxed styling and doubled cuff keep the fit comfortable and the look easy, landing naturally on a wide range of head sizes without feeling tight or slipping out of place. Dyed with a low-impact process that reduces dyestuffs, energy, and water use compared to conventional methods, and made in a Fair Trade Certified factory from bluesign-approved materials, the Better Sweater Fleece Beanie is a small piece of gear that carries a thoughtful, considered approach from start to finish."
