For those of you who like a solid winter workout and are looking for the best headgear, you absolutely must check out Nike's 'Performance Knit 08' hat.

We love its cool, sleek feel that Nike seems to perfect when it comes to clean, stylish athletic gear.

Moving away from a runner's dream, and over to the outdoors man, or casual cap, let's look to 10 Deep for the perfect fit. Their 'Outsider's Cable-Knit Cap in Khaki' is the best way to go for ultimate warmth and long-lasting durability. Consisting of 100% acrylic fabric, this extra cozy cap boasts a super thick feel and woven pattern. Plus, its front and center mini logo definitely takes some inspiration from another popular outwear brand, without making you drop some serious green. What we love most about this winter hat is its interwoven, knitted pattern atop the head, and contrasting linear lines around the roughly two-inch rim at the edge of the of the beanie. Coming in at $36.00, you can nab some serious warmth without breaking the bank!
Now that we've looked at two traditional top traditional takes on a knit cap, let's move over to something a little more progressive. For a casual feel, with a bit of an off-beat style, let's look to Hurley's 'Wanderer Billed Knit 09' for a classic cap with a bit of a twist. Composed of an acrylic/wool blend, this knit cap boasts a black background, complete with off-center Hurley logo (along the left front side), and a short bill in the front for a laid back, hipster feel. Plus, with a $21.99 price tag, it's hard to get much better than this when it comes to stylish bang for your buck!
So, whether you're on the hunt for classic or progressive, comfy casual or athletic and versatile, we've definitely got a little something for everyone. Just remember that no matter the twist you'd like to take, look for quality fabrics (acrylic is the leader), and quality you know you can trust; we guarantee you won't be led astray!
