Hey everyone, it’s Jeremy from Outside. Today we’re talking about the Carhartt Ear Flap Cap. It’s probably one of my most used items, especially in the colder months. It’s a canvas hat with polyester insulation on the inside. And the ears flap down to keep your ears nice and toasty. And it feels like a beanie or any type of headgear that you’d wear in the winter except you’ve got a nice bill for when it’s sunny out. And on the inside you’ve got a nice sweat wicking lining all around the edge. And it’s really soft. And if you could take a peek at the inside here, it really does feel like a beanie. So yeah,  I’d say it’s a great piece to have in your winter lineup.  And it’s one of my most used pieces of gear.
