Very warm
Nice width and really keeps warm. Merino can be itchy to me so I do notice it at the beginning of the wear but it’s not too noticeable for me to not keep it on.

Cozy warm!
Love this headband. It is soft, warm and fits just right. My head size is just about 23 inches. I wear it sometimes under my toque as it keeps the toque from slipping and adds extra warmth.
