Personally, I like wearing a ski mask (like those robber masks you see in the movies) but I have a north fave cotton beanie(or toque if you live in Canada) make sure it fits under your helmet though

If I'm wearing a helmet, I have a really thin winter running sort of thing (I crank out a lot of heat, so don't need anything too warm and I've got a good beard, so don't need a full balaclava)

If I'm not wearing a helmet, I like a bit of a slouchy beanie, but not too loose.

Most of the time I wear nothing under my helmet, on real cold days I wear a balaclava under.

Fitting and cotton. Looks way better and feels better than an big loose beanie under the helmet. Can't stand the looks of an oversize beanie under the helmet.

I have this random TNF beanie I got when i purchased a item from someone on here and use that thing every day. Its warm enough to hold in heat but loose so i can wear it on spring days without getting too hot.

Loose beanies are really bad for putting under helmets, so a tight fit.

Well fitted. Those slouchy hats under the helmet just look no bueno. The hat I where now is wool.
