Deal of the Day
Mountain Hardwear Men's Dome Perignon Beanie
Sale Price: $14.99 (58% Off)
Retail Price: $35.95
Offering high elevation performance and yes, even style, the Mountain Hardwear Men's Dome Perignon Beanie is a windproof fleece hat that continues to be a top seller. Made from Polartec Thermal Pro Nailhead fleece on top, this fleece beanie is lined with AirShield Elite to stop cold winds from penetrating and has a stretch panel at the back to create a snug fit. The fleece-lined earband is soft and the entire hat remains breathable to help vent sweat when activity levels increase. Weighing in at less than 3 ounces, this winter hat is versatile enough to pack for backpacking trips during all 4 seasons and is comfy enough to help you catch some ZZZs on a cross-Atlantic flight. Customers say the windproof fabric cuts down on your ability to hear but agree that it is a worthy tradeoff for superior wind protection. From a spring ski tour in the Rockies to a winter walk along the cliffs of Lake Superior, the Mountain Hardwear Dome Perignon Beanie for men is a versatile favorite with a high warmth-to-weight ratio.
