Helmet Liner Beanie, Sportflex

The Sportflex helmet liner beanie is a thin, warm layer that fits under a climbing or work helmet. It keeps your head and ears warm on cold mornings without making the helmet sit poorly.

Staying warm under a helmet

A regular winter hat is too thick to wear under a helmet; it pushes the helmet up and stops the harness fitting properly. A thin liner beanie gives you warmth without changing how the helmet sits. That matters on cold mornings in the tree and when you are standing at the chipper.

Layering matters on winter jobs. You warm up quickly while climbing or dragging brush and then cool off fast when you stop. A thin liner traps less heat than a thick hat, so you are less likely to overheat on the climb and still have some warmth when you are standing still at the chipper.

Fit and care

After putting on the beanie, readjust your helmet's headband and chinstrap so it is snug and stable. If the helmet cannot be adjusted to fit properly over the liner, do not wear them together. Check your helmet maker's guidance on liners.

Wash the beanie regularly; sweat and sawdust build up fast. Air dry or follow the care label.

Keep a spare in your kit bag. A sweaty liner gets cold quickly, and swapping to a dry one at lunch makes the afternoon much more comfortable.
