Who could get this excited about a hat? Someone who hates having a cold head and ears! I'm from the tropics, now resident in the Eastern US and winter is no friend of mine. This hat, keeps you warm and looking great while you're at it. Unlike a skully, you still have the visor to keep out the sun when needed (took me a while to accept how the sun can be shining brilliantly while its freezing cold). I like the versatility that I can wear this with dress clothes to work and look appropriate, to a party, to drop my kids at school...in other words all the time. And if I get out of the cold (e.g. onto a warm train) I just roll up the ear flaps and perch it back on my head so it doesn't get lost (the other problem).

Did I mention how great it looks on you?

Yes and the sizing is small. I have a small head and I ordered a medium and it fits great.
