As you can all see from the picture above...I GOT MY NEW HAT!!!! Last night at Cabela's was great...free beer and free chicken chili was icing on the cake. When I got to Cabela's at around 7:30, I immediately headed over to the hats to check them out. I found my "Mad Bomber" hat right away and tried it on.
I fell in love at first site with the look of the hat...but the super important stuff is that this hat is lined with rabbit fur which is a great natural insolator from the cold and wind. It has ear flaps that hang down really long over your ears so that those delicate parts of the body are very protected which is something that you don't often get with normal stocking caps. The outer shell of the hat is made from nylon which adds an extra layer of protection from the harsh elements. The inside crown of the hat is made from a quilted lining which ensures that heat will not escape from the top of the head.
The hat itself comes in a variety of colors including black (which is shown in the above photo), khaki, olive, pewter, and white. It also comes in camo and hunters orange and in a couple of other different materials, as well. The hat itself retails for 23.99 at Cabela's right now because it is on SALE for anyone. It is a great deal!! You can also find this deal at http://www.cabelas.com/.
I suggest this hat for any person on your holiday list that fishes in cold weather. I am pretty excited about the possible opportunity of ice fishing this year, and I will definitely be taking this hat along.
Another really exciting thing about this hat (for us girls anyways) is that it has a chin clasp. If you girls are like me and SOOOOO tired of always having to wear your hair in a ponytail or knot under your stocking cap, this hat is for you. The chin clasp and long ear flaps help to keep the wind, water, and other elements away from your hair. It keeps the hair close to your head and minimizes tangling and mess when you reach over the boat or ice to haul in that super monster fish. It really is a great find!!!
I am totally loving this new hat, and I can't wait until my next trip to try it out. I am seriously considering just wearing it over to wal-mart to grocery shop in a few minutes...that is how excited I am...LOL!!!!
Hope your Monday is going well ~
Happy Holidays ~
