The Isis Northern Lights Hat is not only a stylish hat, but is also extremely warm. The Northern Lights hat is made of boiled wool, which is wool that has undergone a boiling and shrinking process to produce a tight weave that does not itch. The Northern Lights hat also has a soft microfleece lining that provides added wind resistance and increased comfort where the hat rests on your forehead and ears. The Northern Lights comes in four fun colors and is one size fits all. Our tester has a size small head and felt that this hat was a bit big for her, however, the warmth of the hat made up for the imperfect fit and will be a piece she turns to this season.
Shannon, our fabulous female tester, takes gear testing to a new level for women. When not at work or school, she is most likely training for a marathon, climbing one of Colorado’s tallest peaks, riding her road bike, or skiing down a mountain slope. Like many women, Shannon gets cold easily, therefore, we try to test the best all weather gear to help her stay warm and dry during all day outdoor pursuits. In the warmer months, Shannon enjoys exploring the Colorado backcountry with her friends and dogs and attempts to escape for as many trail runs as her schedule allows. Shannon is a great women’s tester because she gives readers true insight into how a product may perform for an active woman.
