The quality is good, but the size doesn't match the photo. It would fit a small head—a child or a teenager. The manufacturer might be saving on material this way. Also it might shrink further after washing so you need to hand-wash it in cold water and dry it properly.

Great hat, I wear it every day in winter. It is very comfortable, warm, and doesn't irritate the skin. I haven't washed it yet, so I don't know how the material will behave after washing. I highly recommend it.
-
I haven't had a chance to test it in strong wind or severe frost, but overall it provides warmth. Unfortunately, it's much too short and therefore easily slips off the ears, which is very annoying.
-
The hat is nice and warm, but after the first wash it shrank significantly. Fortunately, I have a small head, so I can still use it. Despite these drawbacks, I recommend it, especially if it's on sale.
-
The product matches the description. The cap is comfortable, well made, lightweight and pleasant to the touch. It is made of 100% merino wool, which gives it the typical properties of this material. It maintains head temperature well. It's not very thick, so during severe cold it may not be sufficient, but I haven't checked that yet. The size is medium, so it won't be suitable for every head. I recommend it, it should last for several seasons.

I have this hat in different colors and it has accompanied me through several winters. It is very warm, effectively protects against wind, and even after sweating, you don't feel cold on your head. Merino wool works perfectly.
-
Great hat, perfect for cold, frosty days. Made of solid material. Super fast shipping. I recommend it to anyone who needs a sturdy hat for the winter.
-
Merino wool is a reliable and natural material that works perfectly as head protection – it keeps you warm very well. Thanks to its exceptional properties, it is perfect for me: lightness goes hand in hand with excellent insulation. It effectively protects against the cold. I definitely recommend it.
-
The hat works great during frosty walks with the dog. It is lightweight, fits well under the hood of a down jacket, and effectively protects the head from the cold, while being almost unnoticeable. Highly recommended!
-
Actually a great hat. Great material, very comfortable to wear. Unfortunately, the hat is also too short for me. I don't have a big head, but after a short time my ears are sticking out at the bottom.
-
Ultra light and very pleasant to wear... Once again, excellent value for money from my favorite brand... Well done Helikon Tex and a big thank you to the entire Military team, truly top-notch...
-
Solid, well-made hat. I disagree with opinions saying it’s small – even though I have a bigger head, it fits perfectly. If you want a natural, warm product, choose wool.
-
Merino wool is a reliable, natural material that warms the head very well. The gray color is very universal. Thanks to its advantages, this hat is perfect for me—lightweight and warm at the same time. It insulates well against the cold outside. I recommend it to others.
-
The hat is perfect for cold days. Very warm, comfortable, and lightweight. Carefully made with a discreet logo. Like every Helikon product – just excellent. Fits the head perfectly and protects the head and ears well from wind. Pleasant to the touch, easy to put on, nothing pinches. I recommend it, especially since the price is attractive.
-
Great hat, well sewn from merino wool, works well around zero temperatures during calm activities or when moving in moderate frosts. If it's very cold and windy, it's better to go for a thicker version.
