Soft, exceptionally warm. the BEST
This is so warm and soft, and perfect for this exceptionally cold NE winter. Twenty degrees daily for weeks on end and the snow from 6 weeks ago is still here. I've several different hats, mostly polar fleece, and there is no comparison. This one is twice as warm. I have to take it off in the car or my head gets too hot. Great for snowblowing, though my Overland hat with earflaps is a bit more protective. This instantly became my GO TO winter hat, both comfortable and ruggedly stylish. I don't even have to get that "model's" scowl to look great! Cannot wipe the smile off my face when I wear it. I found it true to size in XL for my 7.5 head. The price is actually great for what how much value it has.
