My husband has a chilly noggin', always has had one, so I've bought a number of turtle fur's beanies over the years...last year went with the merino wool with micro fleece earband. That was ok, but top of his head still chilly. So, this year I went with The Dude, lambs wool, fully lined by micro fleece so soft and so warm my husband wears it all day, every day since he got it 2 weeks ago.

I searched turtle fur's site and The Dude didn't come up, so I did a Google search, and here it is! I can get him another as a stocking stuffer!

If you have a chilly noggin' buy The Dude, my husband says Best Beanie Ever, and for him, who just worries about functionality rather than anything else, if it works great, if it doesn't toss it...so for him to actually say "Best Beanie Ever", it's got to be something warm and pretty special!

I'm buying another as soon as they come back in stock!

After receiving the beanie I purchased for my husband, who proceeded to wear it all day long the day it arrived (and he is really picky about hats), I have since ordered two more as gifts for family. We were impressed with the super soft fleece on the inside. No doubt these will get a lot of use.

Beautiful beanie, very warm with a soft lining. My husband loved it. Communication with the customer service was excellent! Very happy with the purchase.
