Review on Organic Merino Yellow Beanie Toque Outdoor Recreation by Jeff Payne

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good fabric, very snug fit

I liked this style because it was made in Canada (as opposed to China for most merino wool hats) but other reviews aren't kidding when they say it runs small . I wear a 7 1/4 -7 3/8 baseball cap and the XL is too tight on my head. I'm keeping it on to see if it stretches a bit but for now I can only wear it for about 30-45 minutes before my head starts to hurt. I wear it without the cuffs, it would probably be unbearably tight if I wanted to fold it. The fabric has a nice feel but is knitted thinner so it looks flimsy and is very snug so it fits very snugly to the skull. If they made a few larger sizes I would definitely buy more of these. The outer label is kind of crappy, it has a cartoon sheep on it.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • No automatic
