Description

Created specifically for frigid conditions, the Outdoor Research Frostline Hat combines dense Posh Pile™ fleece with a highly water resistant and lightweight 30-denier Pertex® Endurance shell fabric. Unlike other winter caps and hats that give you nothing more than insulation and ear flaps, the Outdoor Research Frostline Hat has a zip-out Thermodynamic™ face mask with a looped polyester interior that won't irritate your skin. Outdoor Research added a zippered pocket inside their Frostline Hat so you can stow the face mask when the thermometer mercury ascends to milder temperatures. The foam brim helps keep your eyes protected from snow and bright sun, although you can snap the brim to the crown of the Frostline Hat when you don't need it--or whenever you remember to bring your sunglasses.

Perfect for biking
December 03, 2011

I purchased this product for biking in cold winter days/nights, and I am 100% satisfied. The fabric is thin, so that it fits well under my helmet. The fleece inside layer makes it very warm, and the waterproof and windproof outside layer provides protection against rain and snow. The face mask - very easily zipped out - may not provide the warmest protection against biting wind, but allows proper ventilation. It is ideal to wear under a hood.

Pros: Build quality, Ease of use
Cons: Bad design
Comfort: 5 / 5
Durability: 3 / 5
Quality: 3 / 5

Very good , overall
July 10, 2011

This hat is comfortable, warm and pretty much waterproof. The features make this the perfect hat to wear for extented use in cold, snowy weather. The face mask is a huge plus. It is easy to access and use. Depending on conditions you can have your face covered or uncovered very quickly. The brim of the hat is great because it has two positions. You can have it down to help protect your eyes and face or have it held up with a hidden magnet that has never failed for me. The only drawback is that the hook and loop closure for the chin flaps just didn't stand up to the task. The flaps were contsantly seperating. I fixed this by attaching a heavier duty hook and loop closure. Now it never seperates. Despite this need to replace the hook and loop on the chin, this hat is great and was the only item I found that had all these features. It is now an importrant part of my winter gear and i would but another one when this one wears out, if it does. I just hope Outdoor Research addresses the hook and loop short coming on this otherwise graet Frsostline hat.

Pros: Great design, Ease of use, very warm
Cons: inferior hook and loop closures
Comfort: 4 / 5
Durability: 4 / 5
Quality: 4 / 5

warm, 'retractable' visor and facemask. very comfortable in every configuration. little concerned about the longevity of the 'alternative to velcro' fasteners and stitching around that area - but all in all a great hat

Pros: Great design, Ease of use, Great value
Comfort: 4 / 5
Durability: 5 / 5
Quality: 5 / 5

warmth in the wind
December 13, 2010

The hat works great and in the wind is just right on cold days. The I use for long walks in a windy section of a park near home , seems to work just right with the cold temps.

Pros: Great design, Build quality, Lasts forever, Performance, Ease of use
Cons: Cost
