Customer Reviews Smartwool Merino Sport Fleece Training Beanie

The fleece material is soft, lightweight, and surprisingly warm, making it perfect for using under my ski helmet. My head is always cold, so this was perfect!. It fits comfortably without feeling too tight, and it stays in place even during more active use.

Great hat. Warmer than it seems. Haven't tested its water resistance yet, but it packs small and is a great traveling hat!

I use this beanie for running. I've so far used it in the coldest temperatures this year around -18 and some wind. I did not find any issues with staying warm especially when paired with a facemask. I love the loops that allow for sunglasses to be secured in the beanie.

These are amazing for under helmets fat biking and skiing. Nice just to wear around also!

Smartly designed to accommodate glasses. Very comfortable while wearing sun/regular glasses without feeling the pull on your ears that you usually get with any other hat

Use under my ski helmet

Awesome

My only complaint was that it was larger than the one I previously owned, so was a touch loose but still worked well. As a guy with a shaved head, I wore mine constantly in a recent trip to Ireland and Scotland. It kept my head warm and dry in a wide variety of cold, wet and windy conditions. After washing, I could hang it for a few hours in my hotel room and it would be dry in a fraction of the time as more traditional materials. Surprisingly compact and stored easily in my jacket pocket throughout my adventures.

Love all your products and have used them for years on several hiking/camping trips. This beanie us great,love the holes for my glasses!

A versatile year round hat that keeps my ears warm in cold weather, keeps my hair out of my eyes on windy days and bugs away from my ears in spring and summer. I have two of these. Absolutely love them. I have one with me all the time.

Good , not overwhelming, I used as base layer, good for indoor as well

Perfect lightweight hat for my bald head when it's about 30 degrees, or cooler and I'm hiking. Just bought a replacement after losing the original. This is the right thickness; the other beanies were either to thin with little to no warmth retention, or too thick for mild temperatures, causing excessive sweating.

Works well for keeping warm and when you need sunglasses. Stays in place better than other beanies for athletic needs.

This is a great beanie. I used it for cycling. I like it because it covers my whole head and, because it is made out of wool, it helps my helmet stay in place which my polyester beanies will not do. So, they're out the door and this one is in.

Awesome mid-weight beanie, packs small for its warmth, great fit, wears very well. This will handle most conditions between 20F and 40F, your go-to beanie to have in your pocket...a little light if it's really cold, a little warm if it's not cold.

BeBWhat do you think?

Great Beanie

This is my second sport beanie. I have found it to be an excellent beanie for cycling in the cooler months and use it daily once winter actually arrives to Texas. It would be awesome to win the #sweepstakes so I could purchase more Smartwool gear!!!

I have a few of these and have also given them as gifts. It's a perfect lightweight beanie for temps in the 25F-40F degree range. This is my go-to for cold weather mountain bike rides - it's thin to fit under my helmet but not too thick/warm for high exertion exercise. Also, the built-in passthrough for the temples of my sunglasses works perfectly. Love these.

I wear hat almost every day of the year. This is a nice lightweight hat suitable for activities. As a charter boat captain the sunglass holding feature is nice. Adding a non-black color option would be nice.

I have several of the breanie hats, which I like very much. This beanie with the merino fleece lining is softer, more comfortable, has a cozier feel. I haven't used it yet for any strenuous work, but for just wearing around it has become my new favorite.

Great training piece.

Nice for you in between seasons of summer and winter.

A little too big for my head. Otherwise like it.
