Lowe Alpine invented this design of Mountain Cap and it very quickly became a classic because the design is so good. The Lowe Alpine Mountain cap is a absolute classic bit of kit that has often been copied but never beaten. The large give a perfect snug fit for me, the XL I would say fits but is loose so it would come down to preference then. This beanie has a shallow fit that skims the base of the ears and due to the nature of the yarn and construction, the beanie looks smaller but will stretch with wear.

Double layer fabric on the headband gives additional warmth and protection to your ears and forehead. We will use the most appropriate service available for the goods being dispatched these services normally require a signature on receipt of the package(s). The Aleutian fleece lining provides warmth from bitter temperatures, and the scooped ear flaps with webbing attachment protect your ears from the wind. We offer a complete and comprehensive selection of top brands and the best outdoor equipment available.The fully seam taped, waterproof and breathable shell will keep you protected from the elements whilst allowing vapour to escape, keeping you comfortable. The fleece lining adds a touch of lightweight insulation for cooler windy days and the reinforced peak offers protection from rain, snow or even sun. Please note: This version differs from the photograph in that it has had the Lowe Alpine badge removed from the front of the cap. However, with Lowe now looking to become a packs-only outfit it looks like it might go, though the wired peak is different from most alternatives and from my point of view better: it'll stay how you put it and still folds away easily to stow in a pocket. What happens when you replace flying to the start of an Alpine bikepacking adventure with travelling.
