Arc'teryx Bird Head Toque Beanie

Knitted using a performance blend of mulesing free merino wool and recycled polyester, the Arc'teryx Bird Head Toque Beanie in Orca resolves the issue of biting head drafts and itchy traditional wool. An internal microfleece band lines the interior circumference to provide targeted thermal protection around your ears and forehead while pulling moisture away during active hikes. Complete with iconic oversized bird branding integrated into the knit pattern, this packable technical beanie keeps your core temperature balanced throughout cold mountain excursions.
