Filson Tin Cloth Bush Hat


This is an ideal solution for protection from the wind, rain, snow and sun in cold weather. The hat includes a wool flip down that covers the back of your head and your ears. It has kept me warm in temperatures down to 15°F.
Pros
- Waterproofing is outstanding and re-treatable as it wears out.
- Wool lining has been plenty warm for me down to 15°F
- Materials and craftsmanship all receive top marks. I love this hat.
Cons
- Not really breathable, though I don't think that's too much of an issue in cold weather.
- Not ideal for athletic activity due to lack of breathability
Here's a pic of my old Packer Hat (L) and the Filson Tin Cloth Bush Hat (R).

When to use this hat: This hat is simply outstanding for cold weather. I've comfortably used it from 15°F up to 32F for whole-day stretches at a time. The only thing it needs is a chin strap. Guess what? Filson offers that as an option! I recommend getting it with the strap, though it's not necessary.
When not to use this hat: When the temperature goes above freezing, it's time to take this hat off. When the temp goes down below 20°F, it's likely time to start considering other options. Also, if you're wanting to do something athletic at low temps, there are probably better solutions.
Hope this helps! Happy Adventuring!

I've been using it since 2004.
I used the USA made, now I bought 2 all Sri Lanka, but the quality is great.
The wax lasts for 3-4 years then you have to reapply.
I had more than 10 Filsons.
I really like it.
