Gear Review: Chaos Spruce Recycled Cashemere Hat
An 80-percent recycled cashmere hat delivers a bit of backcountry luxury.
When hat hair becomes overwhelming and the thought of snuggling into another layer of “performance” fabric is unbearable, this 80-percent recycled cashmere hat delivers a bit of backcountry luxury.
As soft and supple as any high-end sweater, the slouchy cap kept one fashion-conscious and wool-adverse tester happy during 20°F overnights just outside of Rocky Mountain National Park. “No itchy forehead syndrome with this hat!” she reports. While not intended for high-aerobic activities, the Spruce handled more moderate snowshoe outings without causing overheating.
