Jarrod Blundy's review
My favorite activewear headband from Black Diamond appears to be discontinued, so this one looks like a close match. I never want a beanie in the winter — a headband keeps my ears warm while allowing my head to dump heat. If I get cold, I have multiple layers of hoods to do the job.
