pragmatic cold weather wear
The weave is airy, as opposed to dense, creating volume, breathability, and a looser fit. It is the opposite of a beanie. It takes a wide fold and still covers the top of the ears. Great for bigger heads.If you're going for a specific trendy look, you might want to shop retail stores, unless the look you're going for is a sailor in a peacoat. That's what the cap reminds me of. It looks like the type of hat a submariner would wear when the vessel breaches surface ice, and work is being done outside.With the looser fit, it's not going to be great for vigorous activity. It would be suited for cold weather hikes, or a run to the mailbox, or under a parka's hood in very cold weather.

Very Warm Cap. Great Value. Classic Style.
I love this cap. Very warm and understated in terms of style. Did I also mention the value?I did find the cap a little itchy. I read up on why this is and how to alleviate it and that took care of the problem.Obviously wool can be itchy, so the fibers need to be softened. I also found that some wool can be treated with an agent in processing which can cause the itch. Not sure which was the issue here, but the solution to resolve works for each potential causes.I used Outback Gold Wool Wash to launder the cap (adds lanolin which softens the fibers). Just follow the instructions regarding water to solution ratio and find a reputable website on laundering wool caps. I hand washed, soaked for 30 mins, lightly squeezed and rinsed (squeeze don't wring!). Also rolled in a towel and pressed out excess water. Air dried for 24 hours.I've done this twice since I purchased this cap and it's gotten softer over time. Also, snaps back after the wash.

Warm but itchy
It's a nice warm cap, but it is very itchy. At least for me. Sadly the itchiness kind of ruins it. It's hard to wear for any length of time.

Super warm, Classic look
Excellent watch cap.I've bought several of these over the years. They are incredibly warm and comfortable. Durable. Easy to care for, just remember not to put it in the dryer. Best bet is to hand wash it and then let it air dry. It's wool, so it wicks sweat and moisture nicely, stays warm even when it's damp.I tend to lose these hats before they wear out, so I've never got to the point where it's getting ratty. They will definitely last the winter and many more if you take care of them.

good beanie.
I wear a large size hat. Got the green beanie. Washed on hot, dried on hot, fits like a perfect trawler beanie. Doubles over the ears. Very warm on my bald head. Not itchy. I own quite a few beanies this is my favorite.

Blue and Black one don't fit like the Olive one
So as for warmth/quality these are perfectly good, seem like legit surplus beanies and all that. Unfortunately only the olive one actually fits like I prefer (wider cable knits, not as tall of a hat). The black and navy ones I ordered after enjoying the olive one both are longer and have tighter cable knits and fit tighter overall. The olive one actually looks like the picture in the ad, the other two do not. They're still perfectly useful and if you like a beanie with some floppiness on the top or have a lot of hair to store you might prefer this, but for me they're not as good as the olive one (which I love!). Oh well.

Just as Described
I just received the cap so I have no idea how it will hold up over time. That being said, I am very happy with it. It looks good, fits perfectly, and seems well made. And for the price, it seems to be all it is supposed to be and more. Very happy with my purchase.
