Beanie seems warm but not overly warm. Interior fleece headband is soft and the hat wasn't itchy. Used it on a 35 degree night with 20mph NW winds and it worked good for being out in it about two hours (mostly standing around). Worked better once I pulled over my hood. I think if you are doing something a little more active outdoors then I think this beanie would be fine. Matches Marmot jackets nicely and they offer different color combinations which was a plus.
