Alpha Fleece Beanie
Why We Made This
Warm when you need it. Breathable when you don’t.
You know the feeling—ten minutes into a climb and your beanie turns into a sweaty regret. Too hot to keep on, too cold to take off. That’s exactly what Alpha fleece fixes.
This beanie is warm, ultralight, and wildly breathable, so you can keep moving without overheating. Made Alpha Direct fleece, it’s soft, packable, and built for high‑output days.
The bright orange colorway is a nod to my dad, who wore his orange beanie everywhere—skiing, running, shoveling the driveway. With seven kids, it made him easy to spot, and despite sweating through just about everything, he never took it off. This beanie is built in that same spirit: warm, breathable, and meant to stay on while you move.

It's PERFECT for this in between season weather! Super cozy yet breathable and the fit is very cute
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for our Alpha Fleece Beanie. We are thrilled to hear that it has become your new favorite for this transitional weather! Stay cozy and stylish!
Warmth to weight ratio is outstanding. My only wish is that it was a little bit longer, even pulled down tight to my head it doesn't quite cover my whole ear.
Thanks Laura for the review! Lightweight but also warm is what we are going for. Thanks for the feedback on length! We appreciate it.
Nice beanie , super light weight and warm.
Perfect for Backpacking.

It’s great to see another fan of the Alpha Fleece Beanie! Thank you Laura
The Alpha Fleece Beanie is a great head topper that provides warmth without the weight or extra bulk like other beanies. I have two, orange and gray which are perfect for outdoor activities and or around the house in chiller weather. I have a small head, ordered small but wish it had a tad more length as it doesn't always want to stay down over my ears. But this could be because of my long hair or head shape. Overall great buy, you won't be disappointed!
We love that the orange and gray are working out for your rotation. Thank you for the honest feedback regarding the length and fit over the ears—it’s really helpful for us to hear how the sizing interacts with different head shapes and hair. Happy trails!
