Take As Gifts

The cap I used for many years was getting a bit worn – and it didn’t play music – so I decided to replace it and found this hat on Amazon. I like the ‘wool cap’ style and this hat is certainly that. I figured the Bluetooth capability was a plus, so I got it for only a bit more than a cap without any of that. I received it promptly and inspected it while charging. It appears well made and the fabric feels sturdy and light. The one I got is all black with a small leather-like patch on one side to show various controls and designate proper side. There is a small cutout in the underside for snaking the charging cable (included), and there is also a small area left open to remove the speakers so that the cap can be washed. Bluetooth connection is easy and straightforward – there is a small set of instructions in English to show how to connect/disconnect the Bluetooth. The instructions also clearly illustrate how to use the various controls after connecting with your device. Speaker sound quality is pretty good for such small items, and I had no issue with clarity or volume. As with any speakers or headphones so close to your ears, please be careful not to raise the volume to high. Call quality was good, and the instructions show how to handle incoming calls. The microphone was clear, but it wasn’t as good as a boom mic-style. For the cost though, this was fine. Battery life was ok – again, in a device this size you can’t expect miracles – better than I expected and well able to handle prolonged playing. Be aware that estimates of battery life are always going to depend on what is being played and at what volume. In short, I ordered this originally because I thought it was kind of neat and figured even if I found I didn't use the music part much - I still have a cool hat. I can happily say that it has really changed the way I use my phone. Having the hat keyed to my phone makes listening to music and podcasts so much easier.

Ran the thing in the washing machine WITH the electronics by mistake. When i discovered it still damp at the bottom, I thought I fried it. To my full suprise it still works just as fine as it did before. Comfy, decent audio, and suprisingly durable electronics.

I love this hat. Looks great, fits well, pairs easily with my device(s), and the sound is really good. Docking it one star for the micro USB charging port. It's 2026- who still uses micro USB?

I work in a warehouse for 12 hours a day. To maintain some level of sanity, most people sneak a headphone in. It's technically against the rules, and could get you written up. But, I get it. Out of fear of being to obvious, i decided to buy one of these since its not too expensive. It fit nice and snug, the Bluetooth lasts for about 16 hours on max charge, it charges quickly, and gets a surprisingly loud, and clean sound. I carved off the small leather "control panel" with a pair of scissors. It leaves a small hole that can easily be blended with a piece of electrical tape to cover the blue light that indicates when the speakers are active. The buttons can easily be felt even without the leather bit there. 2 years on, and still no one asks about my everyday "beanie" I wear.

Perfect Xmas gift!

It's really warm and the speakers sound really well.

My adult son really loves this hat! He can plug his headphones, etc., into it using his Bluetooth connection, and it also keeps his head warm in this winter weather. Great idea!

The headphones pieces inside flip and move around sometimes. The beanie fits well and is comfortable though.
