reviews
"I absolutely love the hat, the colour, the warmth and how soft it is."
"A disadvantage of my backpacking quilt was the lack of a 'hood'. I wanted a head cover that doesn't weigh much and is super warm! This fits the bill for both of those requirement!! And it packs down amazingly small, so doesn't take up any extra space in my pack! Of note is I bought the small first and switched to the large to cover my ears."
"I keep my head shaved. This Beanie Keeps my head nice and warm. I have some wool beanies and sometimes they are too much. This light weight beanie is just right. Great fit with a Xl for me." -
what we think
The Outdoor Research Coldfront Down Beanie is a well-insulated and lightweight hat designed to keep you warm in cold weather conditions. At Valley and Peak, we value its reliable warmth and packability, making it an excellent choice for outdoor enthusiasts facing chilly environments.
This beanie has been thoroughly tested by Dan on Arctic expeditions, including the crossing of Finnmark in Norway and Lake Inari in Finland. These tough conditions highlight its ability to provide dependable insulation even when temperatures plummet and icy winds bite.
Filled with 650-fill power down, the Coldfront effectively traps heat while remaining breathable enough to avoid overheating during activity. Its wind-resistant outer fabric also helps block cold gusts and sheds light moisture, keeping the down insulation dry and effective.
The fit is snug but comfortable, stretching to sit securely over the head and ears without feeling tight. It packs down very small, making it easy to carry in a pocket or pack for extra warmth when needed.
In summary, the Outdoor Research Coldfront Down Beanie is a reliable and practical hat for cold weather use. Proven in Arctic conditions and built with quality materials, it’s a great investment for anyone spending time outdoors in winter or high-altitude environments. -
