Review on Carhartt Men's Akron Hat: Rugged Style for Every Occasion by Derrick Milkie

Revainrating 3 out of 5

It keeps your head and the top of your ears warm. Sizing and design issues

I have purchased 3 different styles of hats from this company starting at the bottom of the line. Bought for warmth, not looks. I have a medium sized head with thick hair, so far the 32 degrees has kept my head and top ears warm, the beanie is huge and the earbuds sit on the bottom of my chin, that wouldn't be a problem if the earbuds stayed in place , but because it's so large, the ends of the wings slip up and fold over. "Not good" but mostly the cold air goes right down and my earlobes are very cold. The front of the hat covers my eyebrows, the hat is very oddly shaped. I guess I can wear it under the hunting hat I bought from this company as it's also quite large, but I feel more comfortable wearing it. This one is too fun to wear with the other options available, which is why it costs $40. At this price I'm keeping this one but the other one is coming back, too bad as it's warm. I wouldn't recommend this when the really cold temptations hit us.

Pros
  • Clasp to clasp
Cons
  • Some difficulties
