USGI Wool Beanie

Perfect for winter.

Everything you'll read in these reviews are no joke. All the length you'll need. All the warmth you'll need. It's snug as all get out. It feels like your head is in a vice if that vice was the paws of a giant teddy bear.

It has a removable DOD tag on the outer and a simple ID tag inside, nothing else in the way to make it uncomfortable. Grab it in the dark and slap it on your head, no worries of it being in the wrong orientation.

The women in my family all noted how bizarre a the knit patter is. Seemingly tight but also very loose and breathable. The wool itself feels different than other wool clothes I own but I think that's because of the knit style.

It's barely itchy before washing unlike some wool surplus I've obtained over the years.

I got the navy blue. It is an incredibly deep and dark navy, almost looks black in low light but frankly I prefer it.

Good

Really high quality, VERY warm and feels like it will last forever. It's pure wool but the weave makes it have a more 'synthetic' feel. I really like it, but it's not the usual softness you might imagine with wool. I suspect the weave is to increase durability though, and this feels incredibly durable. Highly recommended.

Have to be one of the best beanies i've owned, you can feel the warmth as soon as you put it on. Being all wool its not surprising, excellent quality.
