Waterproof Beanie? - Snowboarding Forum

Im tired of wearing a cotton beanie that gets soaked if I faceplant, which I do more than I would care to admit, does anyone know of a good waterproof or water resistant beanie that they would reccomend?

Have you thought about a helmet? The Smith Maze weighs next to nothing and you hardly notice it.

yeah i sometimes wear a helmet, but I prefer not to. And even for off the slopes it would be nice to have a beanie that doesnt get soaked when its snowing. When I went to rei and asked them about a water resistant beanie they didn't have anything....

Take the beanie you already have and get some wool or whatever its made out of water proofing

that looks like a good one, thanks for the help, I also found this soft shell beanie made by a hunting company that looks good.
