Cathy - 2008-11-09I have two already. Take the suggestion of buying one size larg
I have two already. Take the suggestion of buying one size larger than usual and it is a perfect fit. Love the adjustable card running around it. Fits well with goggles for skiing. The bill has a wire that forms to your style. GREAT hat!
MB - 2008-03-23My favorite hat
It keeps your head warm and dry and looks good while doing it. I love the hat so much I'm ordering another in a different color.
Sidney Glover - 2007-02-23size large instead of medium
I have found that although it look like it would be a great hat to wear I cannot wear the hat because it is to small and of course the suggest that you buy one size larger is a message that I don't recall seeing at the time I made my choice. I should have brought a large and instead I chose the medium which is normally what I wear. If I could wear the hat I think I would give it a rating of great however I will never really know.

john elliott - 2007-02-22great hat
Ive worn this hat in numerous weather conditions and its very warm water proof and breathable.i like it so much I'm considering buying one for work.

We love the Rando cap, we both wear glasses and most caps press against the glasses and make wearing a cap very uncomfortable. Living in El Paso, TX where the wind is blowing most of the time and with us being older we really need our ears covered. This cap is perfect.
jt - 2006-12-28Great hat
Contrary to what some reviewers stated, I found the hat size to be fairly accurate. I usually wear a medium sized hat, but I bought the large one based on the customers' reviews. Needless to say, the hat is rather loose. The hat also stretches overtime according to what I read on a website dedicated to outdoor gears reviews (don't know if I could post links here).
Regarding the hat inself, I haven't had much time to test it out yet, but it seems well-made.

used in cold rain did just what it was supposed todo.
Grieta Kinens - 2006-01-17This is it!
The OR Rando Cap is it. I was very pleased with its performance. Waterproof and breathable, who could ask for more? The fit is comfortable, and the fleece lining is great. This is it, all ya need. Besides, OR has always been great, I wouldn't expect less.
Michael Avery - 2005-12-13One Cool Cap
The Outdoor Reasearch Rando Cap is as warm as it is cool. Sometimes when the the wind is bitter cold or it's snowing, you need to cover those ears. The little visor on this cap is justr enough to keep the snow out of your eyes. Put on some shades and you're just cool.
D.T. - 2007-09-18a great hat for the cold weather
I wear a Large in most OR hats yet with this I went with an XL and am quite happy.
Rugged and durable. A must for the northern climes.
Marla Nirkkola - 2007-03-06Great lightweight cap
I am Canadian,and by accident found your website. It is a comfortable, lightweight, windproof and warm cap in blowy conditions. I like the idea of the drawstring also for that perfect fit, and the best thing, the velcro chin straps are easy to do up with mitts.
Anonymous - 2007-01-15Good cap but too small!
I am pleased with the cap. Fortunately, I discovered it runs small (from reviews) and ordered one size larger than I take (ordered large instead of medium). It just fits, even at the maximum stretch for the large size. I guess it runs 1 1/2 sizes small. However, in all other aspects it is excellent - light, warm, rainproof. It would be nice if it came in a longer, (full-sized brim) option, for eyeglasse wearers.
george yerger - 2007-01-13Outdoor Research Rando Cap
Because of the reviews by other customers I was confused as to what size to buy. So I got a large & an Ex-large. The large which is the indicated size for my 7 1/4 fit very tightly an would not loosen more. The Ex-large fit just a bit loosely but was about perfect with a small amount of tightening. There's room to go either way with it. My conclusion is if in doubt size up!! The cap seems otherwie to be very nice but cannot comment futher as it is too new. I'm sending the large back.
NM - 2006-07-06Snug fitting, light weight protection for cold-wet conditions
The Rando Cap offers a combination of Gore-Tex protection against wet with a very comfortable fleece inner for warmth. As noted in the item description, it tends to fit snugly, but my L was a good, comfortable fit for my 7 3/8 head without any compression of the drawcord sizing. It would probably be too tight for any larger hat size, so I'd recommend sizing up in that case. I think the snug fit allows the cap to be worn with the earflaps fastened up without it being too loose on the head, thus making it more versatile in variable conditions. The flaps cover the ears and side of face, without extending too far below the back of the neck, making it fairly compatible with a high jacket collar. Waterfowl hunters would probably like its combination of features and fit, though the OR logo is reflective, even in Deep Green. The bill's wire stiffener allows some shaping, or for the bill to be flipped upward as needed. Having a bill is a nice feature for someone with eyeglasses. The cap profile is a bit squarish on the top, more so than Columbia's Yazoo Cap, which is looser fitting overall. In sum, the fit and features suited me. It's regular price is a bit high-end, but the sale price made it an excellent buy.
Sheila Limmroth - 2008-02-13Great cap but buy one size larger than what you wear.
This was a Christmas present for my husband to wear while snowskiing but the sizing was so off that I had to return it. It is a great cap but buy one or two sizes up from the size you currently purchase.
Anonymous - 2006-03-02Poor fit
This hat runs extremely small - even the L/XL won't get on my head. Will be returning it. Otherwise looks like a nice well made hat -- couldn't try it in the field though.
Anonymous - 2007-11-21Rando Cap Runs Very Small
While the Outdoor Research Rando Cap has above average quality construction,it is simply not up to par with Outdoor Research winter caps I have purchased in the past. Even going up one size as suggested does not provide a correct hat size or fit. I have purchased and used numerous Outdoor Research products over the years and have never been this disappointed with an OR product.
Anonymous - 2006-10-05Research sizing!
The medium was tight on my friend's small size head! You have to order at least two sizes larger! (I am hoping to get a size large for him).
Paul Anderson - 2005-12-31Unhappy
It is pretty sad to have to buy an extra large size which supposedly fits 7 3/8's but is so tight on me I don't think it is even a 7 1/4. I paid $50 for that? Sad.
