| Wool Hats |
| Wool is a natural fiber and has been used for both military and civilian uses where inclement wet weather is inevitable. The head loses warmth faster than any area of the body, so the need to protect against hypothermia by insulating the head is vital if you are in cold, wet or windy weather. This is even more true if your journey is likely to last an extended time. Even if you have a coat with a hood, a wool hat can help you modulate your temperature when you need to remove your hood for visibility or cooling purposes. The value of a quality wool hat cannot be emphasized enough for basic clothing needs in outdoor conditions. Wool packs well and even a heavy hat seldom weighs more than half a pound, a solid weight to mass ratio which is increased by the fact that wool hats are typically worn on the head rather than packed as gear. |
