UOG TOP PICK: Lightweight, breathable and low-profile, the Rab Hurkle Rolled Beanie provides useful warmth without excess bulk, making it ideal for wearing beneath a helmet. A top pick for high-output activity in cold conditions.
Rab says:
Specifically designed to be worn under a helmet, this close-fitting, low-bulk beanie provides an extra layer of warmth on exposed ascents, ski tours, or cold-weather bike rides. The 3D waffle fabric expels moisture fast to keep you comfortable.
Our Verdict
At just 31g, the Rab Hurkle Rolled Beanie is a lighter, more breathable take on the traditional beanie. Its close fit keeps bulk to a minimum beneath climbing, cycling and ski helmets, while the rolled edge adds a little extra warmth around the ears and forehead.
The 3D waffle fabric helps spread moisture and dry quickly, which should make it more comfortable than a conventional knitted hat during steep climbs and other high-output activity. It is packable enough to carry as a spare, but the open fabric offers limited wind protection so it works best paired with a hood in very windy conditions.
