Pitted Beanie

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I love this beanie for deep-winter days because the waffle knit traps heat without feeling stuffy. It’s surprisingly warm for an all-synthetic hat and dries fast when I’m moving hard on hikes or ski tours. It’s on the bigger, heavier side, which I actually prefer—it gives full ear coverage and keeps the wind out. Super comfortable and great for everything from dog walks to cold chairlift rides."

We reach for the Outdoor Research Pitted Beanie when we want dependable warmth in a rugged, go-anywhere package. Made from 100% recycled polyester, this waffle-knit winter staple delivers breathable insulation that traps heat while releasing excess moisture—keeping us comfortable whether we’re breaking trail or wandering snowy streets.

The cuffed design adds a classic look and customizable fit, while the synthetic fibers dry quickly after high-output efforts or stormy weather. Soft, durable, and responsibly made, the Pitted Beanie is a cozy essential we trust throughout the coldest months.
