Although the shortest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere, the Winter Solstice produces some of the most glorious skyscapes. This hat celebrates the silvery grey and bright blue of the sometimes cloudy and at other times beautifully clear skies of winter. This iconic ski hat has it all: braided tassels, ear flaps, and matching wrist warmers to keep your hands as delightfully toasty as your ears.
