Extremely warm

The blizzard hat is extremely warm. We had quite a few weeks of below zero temperatures this year and my head was literally sweating. Again, one of the warmest pieces of Sitka gear I own. Downside is that it is a touch snug.

Warmest hat on the market

Amazing hat and somtimes it’s to warm . Ha had never let my head or ears get cold and the bill is a nice touch for a sunny day. Keeps you warm in -25 with 30 mph winds and snowing. My goto hat for late season hunting.

Love it

Love this hat for waterfowl hunting. I wear eye glasses, so stocking caps are usually uncomfortable and don’t have a brim to block rain. This hat works perfectly.

Blizzard GTX Hat

Very warm, hat and beanie combined basically. Gives you the functionality of a hat, blocking sun from your eyes when looking up to shoot and also giving you that extra warmth and wind protection. Great for sunny, cold and windy days.

Need one in Orange!

My favorite hat for cold weather. One of my only hats that fully covers my ears. I have both marsh and elevated and had one of those hats on my head for over 100 hunts. It keeps me warm, dry, blocks the sun, and keeps precipitation off my face. I need one in blaze orange.

Headache

This seems to be a great hat. So much so I’ve foolishly have bought three. All three give me headaches. One size fits all starts way to small. I continued with the reality it might be larger? Golly I’m an idiotic…. I recommend the product if your head is the size of 10 year old boy

Favorable

One size fits all is one of only two issues that this hat suffers from. The second issue is the lack of a model of this same hat with a brim all the way around. With a noggin of 7 5/8", I must wear the hat with the ear flaps flipped up on the exterior instead of curled up inside. What would a fellow with 8" of grey matter containing skull have to do?

Blizzard GTX Hat

Nice hat. A little hesitant about the OSFA. However, the adjustable headband makes it fit perfectly. The earflaps can be folded-up when you need to dump heat quickly. When the earflaps are down, the hat is very warm and waterproof.

No more cold ears

While deer hunting in the west, the cold wind just zaps my ears. Beanie hats worked but just covered the tops of my ears. This hat is going to be super nice on those long gassing sits in the howling ridge top winds.
