The merino wool fabric compositions definitely makes a difference in the softness and it doesn’t feel super dense and tight the way other beanie’s can feel sometimes. Purchased a larger size like others recommended and that was the right choice. Not too small or too large and have plenty of cuff if I wanted to bring it down further to cover more from the cold. The color looks very nice also.

Really good quality beanie that's comfortable and keeps you warm without overheating.
