Hunting & Fishing Looking for a Blaze Orange wool beanie
- Thread starter siscoe308
- Start date
Can't speak to wool but I just picked up Carhartt's fleece blaze orange bennie and am VERY pleased that my ears no longer feel like they're gonna fall off in the deer stand.
Put a wood stove in your deer stand. I'm using propane this year, but next year I'm going wood. No foggy windows, no issues starting it when it's below zero, and the deer could give zero shits.

Do you run hot or cold? The tag cuff is heavy for me. I won’t put it on until temps are below ~25. Even then I pull it off to hike. But I run hot.
I'll admit I don't have that exact beanie but I have lots of their other stuff. Merino is the best thing I've found against the skin. I'd wager for me personally it would probably be good to about 20 or so. If you need more id layer with a balaclava and/or hood as well. I will second that the carhartt beanies that are like knit on the outside with a fleece layer on the inside are nice and warm for cheap, but you would have to find an orange one. Usually a basic one layer wool beanie is enough for me in the majority of conditions.

Is there a specific reason to only want a wool version?? I ask as I have used several types over the years, none failed to do the job. They all worked well even with different materials and styles.
I like wool.
Warmer/ lighter/ tougher/ moisture wicking/ odor control/ breathability...well I like wool.
