With a classic beanie shape and subtle graphic pattern, this hat looks great on any head: male or female, youth or adult. The densely knit fabric makes for a warm and easy fit. If you keep your color change wraps nice and neat, it can be worn reversed to feature the contrast color yarn. The best part – the color combination possibilities are endless.
