The Sealskinz Kirstead is built for the days a beanie isn't enough. It's a heavyweight, proper snow hat with drop-down ear covers and a neck cover, designed to keep wind, rain and snow off when winter properly turns. Despite that, it's surprisingly lightweight to wear.
Sealskinz is a trusted brand in the outdoor community, and the Kirstead uses their 100% waterproof, windproof and breathable Aquasealz membrane with an insulating fleece lining. A rear elasticated Velcro adjuster lets you pull it in for a close, warm fit.
Backed by the Sealskinz Lifetime Waterproof Guarantee. Sealskinz guarantee their waterproof socks, gloves and hats to stay waterproof for a reasonable lifetime of the product. If it stops being waterproof through normal use, it's covered, and we'll help you get it sorted. See the full guarantee terms.
