Baseball Cap Pullover Ear warmers or flaps are not new to the market, however one that is actually designed to fully cover your entire ear, the back of your neck and the rear opening of the ball cap is! Most, but not all of the "other" ballcap pullover flaps also do not provide any windblocking protection on their outer fabric layer. As well we have not yet seen one other competitive brand that gives you a warming 300 wt synthetic polyester inner layer as we provide, as most if not all other brands stop short at the 200 wt fabric level. Our "New" Windblocking Thermal BB Cap Pullover Ear Flaps are built with a (2)two layer technical fabric process and we use only USA manufactured synthetic polyester fabric materials. Our outer layer is 100% thermal windblocking and DWR water repellent treated, while the inner layer is a warming heavy weight fleece. We also provide 20% or more surface area with our units, so as to ensure that your head gets coverage in the areas that need to be covered up like the ears and the neck Nothing replaces a good warm thermal hat during the extremely cold temperatures of the Winter months, but on the milder days of Winter and the colder days of Fall and early Spring, these pair up nicely with the ball cap for keeping the piercing winds off of your ears and neck. Yes, we did numerous test runs in sub-zero tempertures during the Winter months heading out to our Friday and Saturday night local college hockey games and wore them on occasion at the 07 Iditarod with temperatures to -20F (-28.8C)and our ears and neck stayed warm. The issue in the colder temps when you have shorter hair on your head, is that the baseball cap material on the top of your head just doesn't do a very good job in keeping that area warm. So in those conditions, we had warm ears, a warm neck and a cool top of the head at times, but again these really aren't designed for sub zero temperatures like we did some of our testing in. The portability of these units is nice as well, because when you go inside a store or as temperatures warm up, you just pull them off, roll them up and put them in your pocket. We use only the highest quality USA manufactured synthetic polyester that meets U.S. Military specifications and other USA made insulation materials in our construction processes.

These customers want a hat for these everyday Winter temperatures, but also want one that works great when the thermometer falls in the -minus temperature range as well. Our Prairie Snowstorm Hats are built with a 2 layer fabric system that not only blocks out 100% of the wind with the Outer Shell fabric, but also provides thermal warmth with both layers of technical fabric combined that produces an average insulating thermal R-value of R-2.5. The Prairie Snowstorm Hats do not have the superior wicking capabilities of our Arctic Thermal Hats, but with that said, they will also not create as much "head" heat because they do not have the same amount of insulation layering in their construction. The Prairie Snowstorm Hats do provide moisture vapor breathability in both layers of the technical fabric that we use and the Outer Shell is also DWR water repellent to keep the rain or wet snow from penetrating from the outside in. The design of this hat is similar to what a standard "stocking hat" looks like, whereby you can either pull it straight down over the ears with no sides rolled up, or you can pull it further down and then roll the sides up. But please note, this is the "only" similarity! Technically speaking, there is not much else out in the market place that compares to this hat as we have designed and built it. We use only the highest quality USA manufactured synthetic polyester that meets U.S. Military specifications in our construction processes and we are giving the the Prairie Snowstorm Windblocking Thermal Stocking Hat the following conservative temperature rating range: +32 F to -30 F. (0C to -34C) This hat is excellent for just about any outdoor activitiy that you can think of, in or around the suggested temperature rating range that we have suggested. This is and excellent hat for those people that have to work full-time outside during the Winter time and even for those that may only work mornings and afternoons as Crossing Guards for their local school district.

We designed our Prairie Snowstorm Windblocking Thermal Hats for those potential new customers that live in normal Winter conditions, where cold is considered +5 F to +35 F degrees above zero. These customers want a hat for these everyday Winter temperatures, but also want one that works great when the thermometer falls in the -minus temperature range as well.

Our Prairie Snowstorm Hats are built with a 2 layer fabric system that not only blocks out 100% of the wind with the Outer Shell fabric, but also provides thermal warmth with both layers of technical fabric combined that produces an average insulating thermal R-value of R-2.5.

The Prairie Snowstorm Hats do not have the superior wicking capabilities of our Arctic Thermal Hats, but with that said, they will also not create as much "head" heat because they do not have the same amount of insulation layering in their construction.

The Prairie Snowstorm Hats do provide moisture vapor breathability in both layers of the technical fabric that we use and the Outer Shell is also DWR water repellent to keep the rain or wet snow from penetrating from the outside in.

The design of this hat is similar to what a standard "stocking hat" looks like, whereby you can either pull it straight down over the ears with no sides rolled up, or you can pull it further down and then roll the sides up. But please note, this is the "only" similarity! Technically speaking, there is not much else out in the market place that compares to this hat as we have designed and built it.

We use only the highest quality USA manufactured synthetic polyester that meets U.S. Military specifications in our construction processes and we are giving the the Prairie Snowstorm Windblocking Thermal Stocking Hat the following conservative temperature rating range: +32 F to -30 F. (0C to -34C)

This hat is excellent for just about any outdoor activitiy that you can think of, in or around the suggested temperature rating range that we have suggested. This is and excellent hat for those people that have to work full-time outside during the Winter time and even for those that may only work mornings and afternoons as Crossing Guards for their local school district.

Dimensions Laying Flat:
- 10 1/4" - 260.35mm top of hat to bottom edge tall
- 11 1/2" - 292.1mm outer width at head opening edge
- 10 3/4" - 273 mm inner width diameter at head opening edge

SIZING: Maximum circumference measured around your forehead to be comfortable of 22.5" - 571.5mm or less when the side edges are folded up and 23.25" - 590.55mm when wearing the hat straight with no folding of the side edges up. The sizing dimensions are based on a non-tight head squeezing fit and are our best approximations only!

Suggested Temperature Rating Range: +32 F to -40 F (0C to -40C)

We designed our Prairie Snowstorm Windblocking Thermal Hats for those customers that live in normal Winter conditions, where cold is considered +5 F to +35 F degrees above zero. These customers want a hat for these everyday Winter temperatures, but also want one that works great when the thermometer falls into the -minus temperature range as well.

Our Prairie Snowstorm Hats are built with a 2 layer fabric system that not only blocks out 95% to100% of the wind with the Outer Shell fabric, but also provides thermal warmth with both layers of technical fabric combined, producing an average insulating thermal R-value of R-2.5.

The Prairie Snowstorm Hats do not have the superior wicking capabilities of our Arctic Thermal Hats, but with that said, they also do not create as much "head" heat because they do not have the same amount of insulation layering in their construction.

We designed these hats for people who desire a simple pull-over "beanie" style hat that pulls on over the head and covers down to the bottom of the ears. The style cut is nothing new, but the fabric configuration is, because it will keep your head warmer then most of the rest of the beanie style hats out in the market.

Technical Hat Specifications:
- 100% Thermal Windblocking, Breathable & DWR Water Repellent Treated.
- Inner Layer is a mid-weight synthetic polyester technical thermal fleece.
- Moderate moisture wicking & temperant warmth throughout the recommended temperature ranges.

Dimensions Laying Flat:

- 11" - 279.4mm outer width at head opening edge
