Review on The North Face Salty Dog Beanie: The Ultimate Winter Headgear for All Outdoor Enthusiasts by Frank Rivera

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice warm hat. Ugly logo.

Very warm hat for cold days. I wouldn't wear it if it was over zero. The material feels like an almost woolly shell with a fleece lining. It is easy to care for, but the lining dries a little longer than acrylic material. I have a small/medium head (a formal hat/veil would count as small) and this fits perfectly. The color is great and goes well with my black wool coat. The only thing that bothers me, and it's my oversight, is the North Face logo, which (at least practically) cannot be removed. This logo basically ruins any clean look a person is hoping to achieve as it's a bit obnoxious in the way it creates focus. Some people might want to represent the North Face and have a logo. I personally think it breaks any practical fashion for a clean and boxy look. Once again this was an oversight on my part. I will continue to use the hat as it is comfortable, warm and easy to care for, but will not wear it often, if at all, to look fashionable during the winter months.
