Ok I lied its freaking hot under this cap. Living in buffalo, ny our winters generally last 8 months and its always somewhere between 0-25 degrees out. the snow can be brutal here, that combined with humidity it's enough to freeze your face off for even short trips outside. I bought this cause the color matched my coat and i needed an extra layer for my head, honestly i think it's a bit tacky by itself but it'll be covered up. Over all going outside now isn't gonna scare me so much as im practically roasting. great buy I'm glad I got it, I know you will be too.
