Top And BEst Idea For Beanie Hats Women And Men

Beanie Hats for Men And Women

Wool and cotton are usually the most popular materials for beanie hats – they’re warm, insulating and look good. But if you’re prone to having sensitive skin or easily get irritated by certain materials, new developments in fibre technology mean that synthetic fabrics such as acrylic have similar properties plus more to those of wool and cotton.
Therefore, with this is mind, it’s important to know the distinction between the different types of beanie materials out there and the various hat designs they compliment. Each material will be a different thickness and work better for different styles, so choose wisely.

Wool Beanie

Cuffed Beanies

If you’re after a traditional beanie hat without all the bells and whistles, then you should go for a cuffed beanie as it’s one of the best winter hats for men. Although you’ll often see cuffed beanies in wool and cotton, a woollen style gives a great texture and pattern that cotton just can’t provide.
Cuffed beanies come with extra material knitted into the bottom of the hat, allowing for a fold in material that creates the cuff on the hat. The cuff usually sits just on top but slightly over your ears and around your forehead. This makes it great for keeping your head warm during the winter season without looking too wrapped up.

How to Wear a Cuffed Beanie 

Due to the simplicity of a cuffed beanie, you can wear one with more or less anything. You will usually find that this style of beanie is worn most popularly in block colours like black, grey or burgundy making it an extremely versatile accessory.
Try combining a grey cuffed beanie with a stylish suede jacket and black jeans. Due to the simple grey colour, your hat won’t clash with the bright tan of your jacket. Instead it will create uniformity throughout the look as it’ll connect with the dark of the black jeans. Finish the look off with a pair of black Doc Martens for a great smart casual style.

Fisherman

A fisherman beanie is fairly new on the scene in terms of trends – we’ve seen the beanie become increasingly popular, but what actually is it? The fisherman is a thick, chunky ribbed material hat with a shallow crown and it will sit literally just on the top of your head without covering your ears. You need some serious style confidence to pull it off, but if worn correctly you’ll have it nailed.

When it comes to what to wear with your hat and what colours to wear it in, you’ve got a fairly good selection. Keeping it neutral is always a good idea so blacks, greys and navy’s are the go-to. If you’re after something a little braver, a pop of block colour will keep your outfit interesting. Our Idle Man yellow fisherman beanie for £8 is a good place to start – it’s bright but not too in your face, ideal.

Cotton Beanie

Although not as traditional, cotton is a comfy material for beanie hats and has become very popular when it comes to winter warmers. The material’s fairly easy to source and has a relatively low production value, so you’re able to get a good quality hat and a price that won’t break the bank.

Hipster Beanie

Hipster beanies may sound a little cringeworthy, but it’s probably the only way to describe them properly. So what are they? As a variation of your standard cuffed beanie, the hipster beanie has become one of the most popular hats that men are wearing. Hipster beanies are similar to fisherman beanies but sometimes have a little more material so they cover more of your head and bad hair day.
This means that the hat fits tightly to the shape of your head, with the cuff sitting just on top of your ears and forehead. Although this style of beanie isn’t going to keep your head as warm as other styles, it is certainly a hugely stylish accessory. Traditionally, sailors and workmen would wear this style of hat as a practical piece of clothing to keep warm whilst labouring in harsh weather conditions, but it’s now moved on to become a must-have fashion piece.

How to wear a Hipster Beanie for Men And For Women

Out of all the men’s beanie hats, the hipster beanie is probably the most stylish around. This means that it has more versatility in terms of outfits. Whereas you probably wouldn’t wear a bobble beanie with a formal outfit, you can get away with it when wearing a fashion oriented beanie.
Why not try wearing a white T-shirt, long grey overcoat on top and some smart shoes. This is a simple way to create a stylish and formal winter outfit. The long design of the overcoat makes you appear taller and creates verticality within your look. If you then wear a hipster beanie in a similar shade to the coat you create uniformity within your outfit. Add a pair of black dress pants and some leather shoes for a nice wintery smart casual look.

One of the best things about the hipster beanie is that just as you can wear it with formal clothes you can also wear it with an extremely casual look. On the other end of the spectrum, why don’t you try wearing a beanie with a simple grey T-shirt for the ultimate casual vibe. As the hipster beanie doesn’t really cover your ears you don’t have to worry about your head getting too hot during summer. This makes it a perfect hat to wear in spring or summer, as well as winter.
If you want to stick with trends then wear some smart chinos or trousers. These have recently come back into fashion in a big way and even though it doesn’t sound that casual, wearing it with a T-shirt will tone down the look.

Slouch Beanie

In a list about the best beanie hats, we have to mention the slouch beanie. As possibly the only beanie around that doesn’t have a cuffed brim, the slouch beanie has many unique features. This beanie has a longer style that sits over the top of your ears and has extra material slouching down at the back of your head.
This style of beanie used to be very popular in the early to mid-2000s, and you do have to be careful not to end up looking like Sid from skins when you wear one. Although the slouch beanie was once synonymous with greasy teenagers, it is slowly losing this reputation. This makes it a perfect piece of men’s fashion to reclaim and wear with pride in a stylish fashion. As is proven by David Beckham, who regularly wears this style of beanie, it is possible to still look good in one. Whether the slouch beanie looks stylish, or whether it looks childish is pretty much all down to the outfit that you wear it with.

How to Wear a Slouch Beanie for Men And For Women

Wearing a smart outfit is a good way to stop your slouch beanie from looking too childish. For instance, if you wear a polished overcoat and either smart jeans or trousers, you’re slouch beanie will start to look formal and in fashion. Throw on some brown or black boots and a scarf for a rustic winter style. Cuff your jeans to show off the tops of your boots and to add some extra detail to your outfit. Keep the colour palette neutral and pair pieces of similar tones – this way it’s the perfect outfit for the office as well as the pub.

Coolest Beanies for You

High Top Beanie

If you’re looking to make a statement with your beanie hat, then try wearing a high top beanie. Although this way of wearing a beanie probably won’t keep your head warm, it is most likely the most stereotypically cool way to wear a beanie hat. It has become a popular staple as it can be worn many ways and still look good.

How to Wear a High Top Beanie for Men

When wearing a beanie in the high top style, wear it as high up on your head as possible without it falling off. Make sure that the excess material at the top is poking up at the back without it looking like you’ve got a weird shaped head. You can combine this look with more or less whatever you like. However, chucking on some selvedge denim jeans, a tan coat and some white Converse is a great style to compliment this hat.

How to Wear a Beanie for Men

Before you even think about the style of beanie you’re going to wear, you need to make sure you know how to wear it properly. Although different styles of beanie can fit in different ways, there are certain rules that more or less apply to any beanie hat. Fortunately for you, wearing a beanie hat isn’t actually that hard. In fact, it’s pretty low down on the list of things that require skill. Therefore, learning how to wear one should be pretty easy.
Firstly, make sure that when you’re wearing any style of beanie that it doesn’t come too far down your head. If a beanie is completely covering your ear lobes and is sitting on or just above your eyebrows then you’ve probably got it too far down. You don’t want your head to look like an egg. Instead, you want to always have at least some hair coming out from underneath the hat.
Make sure it’s not too small. Unless you’re wearing an extremely hipster beanie, which is supposed to barely cover your head, then make sure it’s big enough. There’s nothing worse than having to constantly pull your beanie down because it’s too small and slips off your ears.

Why do people get colds in cold weather ?



Why do people get colds in cold weather?

The real reasons you get sick when it's cold outside may not be what you think.

It’s common knowledge we are all more likely to get sick during winter. But what does science have to say about why?


You’re outside on an unexpectedly chilly day. You forgot to wear your hat and gloves and now you’re shivering. Is it a given that you’re going to catch a cold or come down with the flu? Maybe. Cold weather doesn’t make you sick, germs do, but research suggests that cold weather can create conditions that help those germs survive and thrive.

Here, we investigate 5 reasons why you’re more likely to get sick in the colder winter months:

1. You’re indoors more. Being stuck indoors increases your risk of getting sick in a few different ways. Researchers in China and at Virginia Tech have found students may get sick more frequently when their dorms are poorly ventilated and lacking humidity. Why? Researchers suspect that the germs in the droplets from a sneeze are able to survive better in dry air. It follows that this logic could apply to your cramped office cubicle, too.

2. You’re exposed to more germs. When you spend more times indoors, you are exposed to more germs. Germs love to live on doorknobs, sink faucets, keyboards and a number of other items that your co-worker, roommate, partner or kids are probably touching too. That’s why frequent hand washing is still a top defense when it comes to staying healthy in the winter.

3. The flu virus transmits faster. This may come as no surprise, but the flu virus transmits much faster when it’s cold out, found the National Institutes of Health. That’s because the lipid coating of the virus becomes tougher at colder temperatures. This means the virus is more active and more resilient and — you guessed it — more likely to infect you with a case of the flu.



4. Your immune system slows down. When it’s cold out, your immune response may, in fact, be more sluggish, found a recent study out of Yale University. Researchers infected mice with the common cold virus and tested their immune system’s response at different temperatures. When the mice were in colder temps, the cells lining their nose were markedly worse at fighting of the virus. More research needs to be done before a conclusion can be reached in people. In the meantime, it doesn't hurt to wrap your nose and mouth with a scarf when it’s chilly outside.

5. Your feet are cold. Cold feet may lower your immune response found a study by researchers at the Common Cold Centre at Cardiff University in England. In the study, researchers placed the feet of 90 students in cold water for 20 minutes. These students were much more likely to get a cold over the next five days compared to students who didn’t get their feet wet. Researchers theorize that chilling the students’ feet caused the blood 
vessels in their nose to constrict, which in turn lowered their immune response.
