 "summary": "An inexpensive double-layer merino beanie that OutdoorGearLab singles out as its best pick for active use because the wool wicks sweat and dries fast. It is warmer than a thin running hat but doesn't stand up well to strong wind.",

 "not_for": "Runs in strong wind, or runners who dislike a snug, slim fit.",
 "downsides": [
  "Struggles in high winds",
  "Slim, tight fit isn't for everyone",
