I've been riding with the same REI / Novara skull cap for over a year. I wear it anytime it's below 65 or so.
Anyway, after all this time, I misplaced it. I ran in REI over the weekend and bought another one. It wasn't until I got home that I realized it's entirely different from the original one. The material and cut are different, and the hat slowly rides up, leaving my ears exposed. It's horrible and I can't wear it.
Anyway, I need to place an order(s) for a replacement asap. Just wondering if anyone has a recommendation. I have a rather large head so if you know of something that runs small that info would be useful.
Something with full ear-coverage is a must.
