Great hat. Just what I was looking for. . . a hat that truly is wind proof and breathable while keeping me warm. I absolutely love this hat and look forward to wearing it. Looks great on too!

Great Hat
Great fit. Extremely warm. Even in the biting midwestern winter winds, this hat keeps my head and ears toasty. You won't be disappointed.

Exactly what I wanted. I work outside at times and need it to be water resistent. great hat. The quality is wonderful. I think it runs a little big need to change for the sm/med.

Light Yet Warm Enough
For travellers from the warm climate, this is the perfect beanie. Light weight & warm enough for brief winter holiday tours. The smooth lining is easy on the skin and features a fairly waterproof shell. Plus, I actually look good in it too, haha.

Warm, nice looking hat
This is my "go to" hat. It is warm, has just the right length to cover my ears and is stylish enough in black to wear when out on the town. I love this hat.

Must Buy
Great hat that fits snug enough not to shift on your head, but with a fit and stretch that isn't to tight. Wind protection is very good; cuts the wind and retains the warmth.

Great hat!
This hat is perfect for warmth while skiing those snowy, windy slopes. It also does a good job of keeping my ears warm and toasty.

Absolutely worth it
Great fit and stays on keeping ears covered and warm. The WindPro does a great job of keeping the warmth in on cold windy days, does fine at repelling water. If your looking for a quality hat to keep you warm, this is it, it's my preference for temps here in Alaska that gets well below 0.

Windpro is windproof and water resistant
This is an ideal hat for winter hiking, skiing, and mountaineering. It's warm, windproof (but you can still hear other members of your group), and very water resistant. I've tested it under flowing water and it does not "wet out" for at least 30 seconds. Great hat!

Great Product and Buy
As a year round runner that is hair challenged, I need something to keep my head warm on winter runs. This is the 2nd purchase of this product, great snug fit, wind proof and really keeps my noggin warm.

WindPro Excellent Warmth for
I purchased this from Altrec several years ago with excellent results. Good job guys. I love your service. I'm ready to buy another one. Variety, spice, life...u know the drill. This is a great warm beanie that covers my cold ears when the weather dips. However, I question its use with extreme sports though. As always, finding a heat-regulating head garment with water repellent properties is a tough order anywhere. For example, I wouldn't choose the WindPro for a 5K run, but would choose it for watching a cold-weather sporting event. Still, this item is a great choice besides that fact. You won't be disappointed under proper conditions...

Great product!
It fits perfect and is very comfortable, The only thing I was hoping for was a variety of better colors.

Not WARM!
I just received this hat in the mail yesterday and it is going back. It was 34 degrees F here (NYC) last night with 7mph winds. The hat provided very little protection against the wind and my head was cold the entire time I wore the hat. The construction is very good, I got the blue hat and it was a good color. Overall it is a well made hat for milder temperatures. Take note that OR and many of the reviews seem to market this as a good winter hat, but it is very thin. Not as thin as the Gore Wind stopper material, but much thinner than you would expect. If you need a good mild weather, every day hat, then this is a good choice. But when the mercury dips, its best to look for another alternative. As to the fit, people mentioned that it was a bit to snug. I will say that the hat fits well, I have a large head (I wear a 7-5/8" brimmed hat) and it fit me well. It wears like a beanie and is quite good looking.

A nice piece for those windy sub zero days.
This is the best winter hat I've found. Recently we had 50 mph wind gusts here in IL. and my OR hat was a gem. Virtually windproof, very warm, and sheds water very nicely. A hat that actually covers your ears, imagine that. For my fashion friends the hat does square off at the top so take that into consideration.

Almost perfect, but not enough sizes!
This hat comes so tantalizingly close to perfection that I could cry. It breathes far better than the 3 hats I have w/ Gore Windstopper inserts and lets in just enough air to vent well. The fleece is the perfect weight for aerobic workouts below 45 degrees, but due to the "hardface" treatment on the outside, the material is elastic to the point of being restrictive. This brings me to the tragic flaw of this beanie: it is sized too small and there aren't nearly enough sizes to accommodate most normal-sized heads. OR only makes 2 sizes: SM/Med & LG/X-LG. Given that my head circumference is 23" (barely a LG on the OR size chart), my LG/X-LG hat shouldn't be nearly as tight as it is. Even after an extended break-in period (including a week stretched over a volleyball!) the hat fits tighter than I'd like, so I only put it on for outings of less than 2 hours. Please OR, could you expand the size range and give us 3 or 4 different sizes? Id buy 2 more in a heartbeat if OR could just dial in the sizing.

Great hat!
I purchased this last winter and it got me through the worst of our extreme cold spell in Utah, well below zero on one night out. Fits snug and keeps you very warm, but is also pretty comfortable once you go inside too. The material is great, sheds the snow and blocks the wind, it's all you need unless your in a rainstorm. I personally do not like the reflective logo (for stealth purposes haha) but I love the feel and look of the material. I would buy this product again as well as other Windpro stuff, it breathes great and is a more versatile option than a full on soft shell. Another fine OR product!

GREAT VALUE
Great value. If you need some warmth during those cold cold days, this is your helping hand. GET IT NOW!

Nice hat, warm, but ill-fitted.
This is a very nice hat. It is very comfortable and very warm. It is sized large enough that it covers your ears and keeps them warm. The only problem that I have had with the hat is that the seams on the top are joined in such a way that the top fo the hat does not conform perfectly flat to the top of your head, giving it sort of a tent-like effect. If this will not bother you, this is a great hat. Also, less important, the OR logo on the front of the hat (which is made of a very nice reflective material) has begun to peel off the hat almost immediately, in fact one edge of it was raised from the moment I took the hat out of the packaging.

STAYES PUT ON MY HEAD
IT STAYS PUT AND DOESN'T COME OFF. IT'S THE FIRST ONE THAT I CAN SAY THAT ABOUT, VERY HAPPY
January 28, 2007
Fine hat.
It's a fine hat. I bought it for my sister-in-law, who lives out in Victoria, British Columbia. She says that it is exactly what she needs - warm, lightweight, and stylish.

Square Top
I love OR gear, and if it wasn't for the square sewn top not providing a form fit around my dome, I would have loved this hat. Sewn flat made the four corners on top stick out and just look awkward. I am going to try the Airfoil now.
January 3, 2007
Pretty good!
Cuts the wind and provides the much needed warmth in winter running.
December 5, 2006
This hat is terrific
Great comfort. Warm and fits snug.
October 27, 2006
would purchase this again
warm comfortable, not so tight that I still feel like I've got a band around my head for the rest of the day.

WELL MADE PRODUCT
WELL MADE PRODUCT....BUT VERY TIGHT FITTING(I GOT AN XL)...NOT ROUND AT THE TOP LIKE IN THE PHOTO...SQUARE TOP. SUPER SOFT INTERIOR THOUGH...WOULD BUY ANOTHER IF IT WAS AN XXL.

Comfortable, with good warmth-to-weight
The WindPro Hat offers an excellent combination of double material around the ears with a relatively lightweight construction overall. I found the L/XL to be a very comfortable, snug fit for a size 7 3/8 head; there is some expansion left in the hat, so it would presumably fit larger heads, though perhaps more tightly. I liked the grey colour with reflective OR logo, and the fact that there is a slight "scalloping" of the hat, meaning it extends slightly farther down at the back than at the front (but not as radical as in other OR "knitted" hats/toques), thus avoiding obstructing peripheral vision/eyeglasses, and simply offering a more tailored look . Excellent construction and quality control as well, and nice sale price.

Great hat!
Warm and snug. Hat looks good and has a trim fit. Fleece headband is soft and warm.

COMFORTABLE and WARM
I love this hat. Very comfortable. I've worn it all winter from running, jumping on the trampoline with the kids, hiking, biking, skiing, you name it. Perfect hat for active outdoor activites. My kids might disagree but I think it looks pretty cool as well. If you have a rather large dome, as I do, you'll find the L/XL a great fit. Much more comfortable than a one size fits all.
March 13, 2006
excellent lid
Used in lift skiing in VT. Bitter conditions -- single digit F temps, 25-35 mph winds. Kept my ears and head in good shape. Looking forward to using it while mountaineering. Terrific product.
March 5, 2006
good stuff
at it's best on the lift. when the wind is whippin' your dome won't know.
January 30, 2006
A great value
This hat is afordable and gets the job done. I bought it because I like to run outside even in the winter. I live in northern Wisconsin, which means I needed some warm headgear. I'm satisfied with this product.
January 16, 2006
Awesome
The wind pro hat was exactly what I wanted and it fit perfectly!
