I always get military surplus wool beanies, ones made in USA preferably. They are a little long and last forever, you can grab them for under $10 too. Doesn’t stretch out too much but does pill a little bit after heavy wear.

As an active duty person, idk why in the world anyone would want to wear the standard issue crap cool beanie. They are itchy and high uncomfortable. Every time I've gone to cold weather spots people just wear their self purchased beanies with the logo cut off.

Do you feel the same about other standard issue garments as well?
