What hats keep men warm in winter?

In cold weather, the best winter hats for men combine insulation, wind resistance, and breathable comfort. Fabrics like sherpa, merino wool, or microfleece linings trap heat, while outer layers block wind chill. A snug fit over the ears and forehead is key to reducing heat loss. At Sealskinz, many of our men’s winter hats use a three-layer construction that includes a waterproof membrane sandwiched between outer knit and inner fleece, delivering both warmth and protection from dampness. 

Are waterproof hats suitable for snow?

Absolutely! Waterproof hats are often ideal in snowy conditions because they ensure moisture stays out while maintaining breathability. In heavy wet snow or slushy conditions, a waterproof hat will outperform a standard knit cap, because it helps your insulation maintain its loft by preventing dampening.

How do I choose the right size winter hat?

Choosing the right size ensures warmth, comfort, and a better barrier against wind and cold. Here’s how to get the right fit:

1. Measure your head circumference: wrap a soft tape measure around your head just above the eyebrows and over the widest part of the skull.

2. Compare to the our size chart: Sealskinz hats typically come in sizes S/M, L/XL and XXL which will parallel to a measurement in cm/inches on our size guide.

3. Check for secure but not tight fit: the hat should hug your head without pressing uncomfortably on your temples or leaving marks. When you bend or move, it shouldn’t slide off or expose gaps at the forehead or back.

A correctly sized winter hat helps maintain insulation (by trapping a layer of warm air) and prevents cold air from creeping in under edges.
