Fjallraven Nordic Heater Hat - Dark Olive

  1 of 21

  The Fjallraven Nordic Heater Hat is an excellent warm hat. I used this in the Arctic when the temperature got really low - and when getting up in the morning following sleeping out. It paired really well with the Fjallraven Singi Down Jacket and certainly kept the cold at bay. The chin strap enables you to cinch the hat down around your chin and the faux fur takes the edge off the wind and cold. I found that this enabled the whole hat to fit with the Singi Down Jacket hood and made a decent warm seal whilst the hood was up. It's very comfortable and was absolutely ideal even when the temperature dropped to almost -40. A very worthy addition to anyone's cold weather kit. An absolute must for the Arctic.

  Super warm hat for these freezing winter days, the long fur tickles at times but not really a problem, everyone in the house has been wearing it.

  I was a bit dubious about this hat at first because of the price. But I can assure you that this hat is worth every penny. You can feel the heat instantly when you put it on and you can feel the quality. No loose threads, no bad stitching and not real fur. I'd recommend this hat to anyone, yes you can find similar for less but you'll end up spending more when you eventually realise this is the one you should've bought first time around.

  Warm as toast. The fit is great and, although we're barely Arctic here in the UK, on the occasion that it has dropped below zero this hat has been excellent. It's flexible enough to scrunch up and put in a rucksack or bellows pocket. Great value and a superb service from RM.

  This is one seriously warm hat! Fjallraven quality, and when the temperature is low enough to wear it you will have a warm head.

  In December 2012 I bought one of these hats for my wife. She was initially a little skeptical, but it has become a firm favourite in her winter walking gear, and yet it shows no sign of wear a little over six years later. Although quite bulky when worn, it packs into a small space. The large size version that I recently ordered for myself occupies about half the volume of one of the side pockets of my 32l rucksack and weighs just 175gm. In practice it is remarkably warm. This may be because the artificial fur spreads out and catches air. I have used it on walks in December and January in England and Wales, and it has been too hot to wear whilst on the move around midday. However when resting it provides a great deal of comfort, allowing me to rest longer than I would ordinarily choose to do. Also I wore it whilst making a Christmas wreath in our garden, and it kept me comfortable so that I could complete the job without having to retreat to the house. I suspect that it would be too warm for cross country skiing, but probably very good for camping in winter.

  Superb hat, keeps you nice and warm as well as dry. One thing I notice is you don’t overheat either. It is truly a great bit of kit. The only down side in any way is the fur on the front. It does get in the way of vision a bit, but it can be pushed away from your face. It does catch snow/rain though and keep it away from your face so swings and roundabouts. This is the hat I’ve been looking for for a long time. Love it. It’s lighter and easier to stow or carry than you think too. Best trapper hat I’ve had. Better than the north face one I have had a while by far. So impressed by the service from Ray Mears store too. I must admit it’s making me really think about one of Fjallraven’s coats too. Impressed with the materials and quality.

  Great for really cold weather. Wouldn’t recommend for warmer than 5 degrees. Well-made as you would expect from Fjallraven.
