The fit and feel are great. I’m new to skida and am thankful i finally purchased their products. I have a brim hat that I love and this Nordic hat is great. I like how it fits my head. The fabric is gathered at the top which gives my head a taller look which I like. So many thin athletic winter beanies make my head look funny…so I’m looking forward to wearing this Nordic skiing, running, and backcountry hiking. It is not lined, which is ok for me because I’ll be wearing it while I’m exercising and I’ll be warm.
