    Helly Hansen light beanie

    Pete bland used to stock and sell an extremely light Helly Hansen beanie. I can't find them anywhere now. Ones I now see heavier. Can anyone help? Thanks

    Are you sure that it was actually a beanie and not HH balaclava that someone had rolled up to form a beanie:-

    I was a bit of an oddball until I was abducted by aliens; but I'm perfectly OK now!

    Don't know about HH but I have a lightweight Extremities one - I think they are still available.

    Yes I have a lightweight HH hat but it's years old.
    Looks like the HH warm beanie is the replacement in merino wool https://www.hellyhansen.com/en_gb/hh-warm-beanie-68082
    Or the OMM beanie at Pete Blands looks a similar alternative https://www.peteblandsports.co.uk/de...ear_d01427.htm

    I’ve got a hat that’s similar weight fabric to a typical base-layer. Might be Under Armour or more likely Haglofs

    I was given one of these for a present and they're great https://www.thebushcraftstore.co.uk/...ge-25683-p.asp Despite being v light they're reversible so you have the choice of wearing 'stealth' mode when you;re feeling knackered, trudging along and want to remain obscured or there's atomic orange "hey-look-at-me-I'm-great" mode when you're in the zone and descending fast off the fells and passing all those toiling ramblers
