FirstSpear’s New American Made Beanie Leather Patch is live!

This incredibly soft beanie will keep your dome warm while wicking away moisture. It features a double-stitched edging with a premium laser engraved leather FS logo patch that is stylishly offset. The beanie is constructed from FirstSpear’s ACM 600 Merino Wool, proudly sourced in the USA. It’s perfect for a cold day at the range or bustling around town. It’s carefully constructed to strategically taper slightly longer at the neck to reduce cold drafts and to prevent it from riding up out of place when you’re on the move.

Filling the mid-weight niche of our technical apparel line, the Wind Cheater has a Durable Water Repellant (DWR) finish and excellent wind shedding characteristics. It is quiet, flexible, extremely versatile and made in the USA.

The Wind Cheater features bungee/barrel lock adjustments for the hood, collar and lengthened tail.

With a “true to fit” cut, your t-shirt size is your jacket size. If you wear a large shirt and don’t plan to layer heavily, go with a large Wind Cheater and you won’t be disappointed.
