Best Snowboard Beanies of 2024

BEST FOR: RELAXING

With more of a relaxed, slouchy fit, Burton’s DND Beanie is the perfect hat to put you in that chilled-out mood after a good day of riding. Long and form-fitting to any head, you can roll this hat back or leave it long and droopy behind your ears for maximum warmth. Most notably, when you buy a Burton DND beanie, you receive three different hats, so you’ll have plenty of variety when the time comes to throw a hat on after riding. We highly suggest this beanie to those who know their style and want a wide color variety of it.

BEST FOR: COLDER CLIMATES

Unlike most other beanies on the list, this hat is made with polyester fabric, which has a furrier texture.  It doesn’t quite have the length of other beanies, so if you’re interested in a shorter hat, this one is best for you. Made specifically for women, the North Face Osito is more form-fitting than other hats but still boasts a slouchy fit for ultimate style points. 

Just check out some of the reviews online; very few reviewers have anything bad to say about this comfy and cute hat. We recommend it to North Face lovers seeking a bit more style in their hat than the average beanie wearer.

BEST FOR: MUlTI-SPORT ATHLETES

Thinner than most other hats, the Smartwool Merino 250 Beanie is especially made for warmer temperatures and multi-sport use. The Merino Wool material wicks away moisture better than other fabrics and breathes to regulate temperatures while the double layer knit construction is finished seamlessly for a tight, compact fit around your head. 

The design uniquely provides warmth while controlling odor and removing that uncomfortable hat head itchiness. All-in-all, with such a compact and thin design, this is a great multi-sport hat that can easily fit underneath a helmet.

BEST FOR: MUSIC LOVERS

The engineers over at Mydeal offer one of the coolest beanies on the market — a Bluetooth compatible beanie. Outfitted with the latest Bluetooth technology and a rechargeable speaker, you can listen to music all day long while wearing this casual, droopy beanie around town. Pull it down over your head or wear it loose on the back – you’ll look cool either way! 

In any case, we recommend this hat for warm weather riders and ski-town dwellers as it isn’t quite thick enough for serious inclement weather, but it will work perfectly in milder conditions. Most importantly, the unique Bluetooth technology lands this hat on our list for all music-loving riders as there are few others like it out there.

BEST FOR: CASUAL RIDING

Thick and well-knit, the Carhartt Acrylic Watch Beanie is a great hat for any casual rider. With its label sewn on to the front for style and a stretchable acrylic fabric, this hat will not only fit your head, but will protect you from cold, windy weather as well. In the case that you’re getting either too cold or too hot, you can also fold the hat’s cuff up or down depending on the temperature. 

A classic beanie with a comfortable, tighter feel, we recommended this hat to those who prefer a warm hat in the lodge after a full day’s riding. It’s sure to keep your head warm on the mountain and around town.

BEST FOR: WARM WEATHER

If you’re in the market for a cheaper beanie and one that might be great for casual, warm weather events, this hat is probably best for you. More affordable than other hats on the list, it is made of a soft acrylic that fits nicely over your head while the foldable, cuffed edge provides you with that extra layer of heat around the ears. 

This hat, however, may not endure the same level of weather that other hats might, so we recommend wearing it for casual purposes or warm weather snowboarding. All-in-all, it’s biggest selling point is comfort, so if that’s your preference, then definitely take a look at Beachfield’s Heritage Beanie.

BEST FOR: RAINY WEATHER

Few beanies out there have visors, but the Folie Co. Warm Visor Brim Beanie comes with a 2-inch visor for added protection against cold and rain. The inside of this warm, form-fitting hat is fleece lined and because of its design, it’s easy to use this as both a nightlife hat and a snowboarding hat. 

Thinner than most hats, the Folie Brim Beanie can still fit under a thin helmet, but if you want to wear it on its own, fear not because the Folie Brim Beanie is just thick enough to provide you the warmth you need around town. We recommend it to all riders seeking a brimmed-beanie.

BEST FOR: POM-POM LOVERS

As the only pom-pom equipped beanie on our list, the Helly Hansen Ridgeline Beanie is one of the best pom-pom models on the market. Made for long-lasting comfort, this hat is built with elastane for a stretchy, quick-recovering material that will sit on your head comfortably all day long. 

You may not be able to wear this hat under a helmet due to its thickness, but if cold temperatures and high winds are annoying you then rest assured that this hat will keep your head warm and dry in even the most inclement weather.
