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.
-
Very comfortable and warm hat, wool pleasant to the touch – nothing scratches or itches. Deep enough to cover the ears and protect them from the cold. I am very happy with the purchase.

I’ve had a hat like this before, but after washing it shrank so much that it was no longer wearable, nevertheless I bought it again. However, the problem is that it’s quite small and slips off the ears, maybe my head is too big. Even at +8°C it lets the wind through a lot, the weave is too loose. For winter, if there’s no wind, it’s okay, but there should be a bigger size available. I wouldn’t call it a typical winter hat. I like the Helikon brand, but not all their products are perfect.
-
I've been wearing this hat for some time and I can confirm that it's warm, comfortable, and the material does not cause allergies, unlike polyester. This is the best hat I've had so far. Despite the price, I recommend it for cold days – it's solid and worth every penny.
-
The hat is soft, pleasant to the touch. Keeps warmth well, very elastic, so it fits the head great and doesn’t slip over the eyes. You have to be careful when washing – I washed my previous hat by hand but used too strong a detergent and too hot water, which caused it to shrink.
-
Very good quality and workmanship, but on my average-sized head it only covers part of my ear. Only after unfolding the brim is it ok, but then it holds less tightly and is less warm.
-
The lightweight hat with a blend of merino wool really works. It keeps you warm even at -15°C, wicks away sweat well and keeps your head warm. It doesn't itch. The price is very attractive for a merino product.
-
The cap doesn't squeeze the head, has good elasticity. Effectively protects against the cold, and thanks to merino wool, it works well during transition periods. Fits the head very comfortably. Of my recent Helikon purchases, only this cap met my expectations.
-
It would be nice if the hat were a bit deeper, because it fits very tightly to the whole head, which is a bit uncomfortable for me. Maybe that tight fit is why the wool keeps you so warm.
-
Light hat, but also warm. I have two color versions and I like this one the most. I’ve been using it for the second season—works great. Probably not suitable for very severe frosts, but perfect for Polish winters.
-
Perfect for winter, classic and carefully made. Only the logo could be smaller. As for the quality of workmanship – it's excellent. I recommend it.
