It looks a bit like something Grandma would have knit you for Christmas, but beneath the traditional wool and acrylic yarns of this Outdoor Research Frosty Earflap Hat for kids is a fully windproof GORE WINDSTOPPER® fleece ear band. The Kids' Frosty Earflap Hat from Outdoor Research is an essential outdoor insulating piece for families who spend their weekends in the mountains or their afternoons at the neighborhood sled hill. Aside from the Outdoor Research logo on the ears, the Frosty Earflap Hat looks like any other traditional stocking knit cap, but the GORE WINDSTOPPER® fleece interior gives this winter hat an unsurpassed technical advantage. The blended acrylic and wool knit repels water and helps retain heat even when the Frosty Earflap Hat is completely saturated by rain or snow.

This hat from OR is well made and very warm. Great hat for a style savvy young person. The best feature is its liner of wind proof material, it adds comfort and reduces heat loss. The M/L sizing seems to be on the "large" side so you will want to measure the potential recipient's head and consult the sizing chart. Definitely a good choice for outdoor activities.
Pros: Build quality, Performance, Cons: sizing

I bought this hat for my 3-year old son but the size M/L is too big for him. The hat is OK for my brother (his head circumference is 56cm)
In general, it's a very light, warm and soft hat, we all liked it.
Pros: Build quality, Ease of use
