Rothco Wool Watch Cap with Brim – Wool Beanie Hat with Visor – Great for Winter Activities

My husband had been wearing this brimmed beanie regularly, and it has been comfortable and practical for everyday use. The brim holds its shape well and gives a bit of structure instead of collapsing like softer beanies. It fits snug without feeling tight and stays in place without needing constant adjustment. The material is warm but breathable enough to wear indoors briefly without overheating. After multiple wears, it has not stretched out or lost its form. This feels like a beanie you can actually style, not just throw on for warmth.

It fits like i want it to! But if you want it to fit like it does out of the package wash it in cold water dry on low or air dry cause it will shrink i have a smaller head so I did wash and dry in warm and dryed it on medium heat.

fits kinda tight (like starts to get uncomfortable where the brim is) but hopefully it’ll loosen up with wear. other than that it’s solid!

Good hat. A little over size.

Warm tight elastic fit if your looking for something like the old military surplus style hats ...this is pretty close

I have purchased more than 15 different types of beanies off amazon this past yet, in search of ones I love, so I know how the quality ranges. This product claims to be wool, and the tag says it is wool, however it feels NOTHING like any of the wool beanies I have purchased and it feels EXACTLY like all of the acrylic (scratchy plastic threading) beanies I have purchased. Also this companies makes two styles as far as I have seen, one with a giant cone-head of leftover fabric on top, which as I understand it is meant to provide padding for helmets worn over it, and one that hugs the head. The one I purchased is supposed to be one that hugs the head and fits, as all the pictures here indicate, however I 100% got the conehead version, which as I have seen elsewhere is listed as 100% acrylic fabric. I wonder if there was not some mixup in the manufacturing of the product selling and putting the wrong tags on the wrong items. Lastly, this is meant to be one size fits all, and I am purchasing this to wear with my headphones/headset which does not fit my head even on the smalletst setting, thus I want to use a beanie to add padding to keep the headset up on my ears. So my head is not big by any means, yet this beanie is TIGHT around my head, and then a good 6 inches of conehead loosely sitting on top, its design makes no sense and is not what I ordered.

The thick material does not let much light through. Should retain heat and block some wind, yet still breath. This soft wool does not itch. Fits my 54 cm head snugly without leaving a mark on my forehead. There is some excess material on top when the cap sits halfway up my ears but, disappears when pulled down below my ears and covers the back of my head and neck very well. I'm liking this wool cap more than the acrylic caps I have of the same style. This one will provide better protection in very cold weather. I like this GI Jeep style with a visor. Black looks great but does show lint. It's made in India but the stitching seems to be flawless.

One year review: warm, well made, TWO LAYERS, REAL WOOL (moth holes in mine as proof), keeps its shape, and fits perfectly (my head is small/medium, if you have a big ol’ Mellon head then it’ll be tight). I like that I can pull it down low over my ears and back of my neck when the wind kicks up. The brim helps to block sun glare from my eyes, but isn’t so large that it causes snow to build up on the brim and melt. Just be careful how you store it in the off season; it IS wool and therefore needs to be cared for and stored appropriately so that the moths don’t find it. Speaking from experience, it’s a bummer when you take it out of storage for the first time, looking forward to wearing it again, and find a few unwanted “vent” holes in it courtesy of the friendly neighborhood moth.

This cap gets full points. Is it large enough? Yes! I wear XL (61 cm for helmets) and this cap fits fine. Is the brim solid? Yes! It feels like plastic so it won’t get deformed and will withstand getting washed. Is it warm? Yes! Double layered, and soft enough to make me wonder if it’s a wool blend. Does it make me look like Radar? Sadly, no, but I can’t take points off for that.

Have worn reqular wool beanies for many many years. This version is warm, fits my head nicely like the overall look, if snowing the brim adds a little more protection. May get another one, in olive.

Brim holding the stiffener unstitched itself and it shrank to nothing in a cool wash.

Visor could be smidgen larger. Plenty of stretch, I have a 59-60cm circumference head. Well made!

This hat is not worth the money. I don't believe it's actually wool. It's too tight for an adult size head and there's too much extra up top. The picture doesn't reflect the actual hat. Very disappointed. It's the kind of hat you can buy in a dollar store.
