@popvulture agree man! Our good friends at @guiltyparty gifted me one at their party last year. Was hooked straight away!

We've created a monster.

@popvulture has yours maintained it’s shape? and have you noticed any stretch after wearing? I love the look of these but recently bought two cotton HW DOG watch caps and the first one stretched to almost double it’s original size after one day of wear.. it just ended up really baggy with no shape to it all. Maybe I just have a huge head

[Mindfulbiscuit]

@DeeDee85 good question I wondered the same I’ve had experienced the same with other brands but have to admit ih watch cap keep it’s shape very well

[popvulture]

@DeeDee85 they definitely maintain their shape. I love them for that reason, and the fact that they're cotton and therefore not as warm as wool. I run hot, so I don’t really like wearing a wool beanie unless it’s really cold out. Not that these won’t keep you warm to some degree, but I just like the extended range of wear, so to speak. You could practically wear one in actual warm weather and I bet it’d be alright.

But back to the main question — I definitely have a big-ass head, and I can confirm it’s caused no issues, thankfully

[AdamJ]

@DeeDee85 @Mindfulbiscuit @popvulture mines had a couple of seasons wear now and has definitely loosened up and is noticeably not as tight around my head. If anything I find it comfier, certainly not too loose, still has its shape

[DeeDee85]

@AdamJ @popvulture SOLD.. that’s good enough for me, thank you very much for the insight. Now to decide between the Aran knit or the standard. Definitely light indigo though

[Mindfulbiscuit]

@AdamJ thanks for that

[Mindfulbiscuit]

I nicked a green one

The Steve Zissou in me is very much considering a red one

@flannel-slut Great movie

[Mindfulbiscuit]

Fits pretty well

[Denman John]

@Mindfulbiscuit Looks great on you. Can you get this hat to cover your ears if you wanted?

[Mindfulbiscuit]

@Denman-John thanks yeah I could but it’s rolled up a couple times quite stretchy but still tight in a good way and I have a small head I found it to be a tad small but that’s the style of it

[Alex]

@Denman-John this is the shortest style, not designed to be pulled down, but plenty of longer options in the line

[Tago Mago]

@Denman-John I have the two-way khaki/black that easily covers my ears when folded down

[Denman John]

@Mindfulbiscuit @Alex @Tago-Mago Thank you gentlemen. Love the green, but living in Canada sometimes requires covering your ears. Would the green Merino wool hat cover my ears if needed, or do I need to go with a “two-way” hat?

[Alex]

Anything that’s not called a ‘roll up’ should cover your ears if you want it to

[Mindfulbiscuit]

@Denman-John welcome

[Mindfulbiscuit]

@Denman-John I like the look of the two also but not sure if that would be two big on my small head
