GBI always climb with Turtle fur. I climb mountains on the weekends. I always need a beanie in my gear. I chose Turtle Fur because they look great and are super warm. I wear them on the mountains and around town.

GBGood hat, cheap wool I bought a Turtle Fur hat a few years ago, and loved the soft alpaca wool with fleece liner. Unfortunately, I accidentally shrunk it in the wash this year. I was under the mistaken impression that all Turtle Fur hats were made with alpaca wool, so I bought a similar hat at a similar price. The new hat is not made with alpaca wool. It's much rougher on the outside, although the fleece liner keeps it cozy on the inside. I know it's my own fault for not noticing when I ordered the hat, but I'm annoyed that I paid so much for a non-alpaca hat.

GBMine Shrunk I bought a Turtle Fur hat and wore it for a winter and it was GREAT! One of the best pieces of winter gear I have ever bought. Pulled it out of storage for this winter and it had shrunk to the point where I couldn't even put it on. Never went through the wash, just kind of shrunk over the summer.
