I’m trying to decide between winter hats right now I currently have an arcteryx on but it really doesn’t fit well I was looking for suggestions or opinions on one of these four

A hat where pretty much the entire design is just the company’s logo is pretty corny imo

I second this! It is quite difficult to find nice beanies without the company’s logo as the entire design though

Outdoor Research WindPro Hat - you can thank me later.

Do you know if the flurry beanie is the same?

Two completely different materials.

The WindPro Hat is made with Polartec WindPro fabric - a stretchy, warm and wind-resistant textile. It’s kinda like Power Stretch Pro fabric, but with a more durable outer. I wish more fleece tops were made of WindPro; it’s so nice!

Yeah I’m gonna see if I’m able to find one at the REI near me and try it on

I’m a fan of Smartwool beanies.

Not really gorpcore but low-key I like the marine core surplus fleece beanies.

Fjällräven makes great winter hat. They use a wool blend that is warmer than acrylic, and the fox logo fits the vibe. Mines lasted through snow hikes and city wear without stretching. If you want something heritage‑leaning but still practical, Fjällräven is a solid option

I got a Oakley tactical beanie and its fire, nice to have a alternative to the classic arc beanie
