And it’s no surprise really. They’re not only stylish, but practical too. Just ask anyone who skis or loves snow sports about the power of a great head and neck covering in the depths of winter.

Soft and warm, knitted hoods are a playful alternative to beanies and knit caps. And options with full face coverage and dickeys protect your ears, neck and chest from harsh, cold winds without going overboard in layers. Even better? This wintry essential will work in milder transitional spring temps too – just pull down the hood and wear it as a neck warmer.
