Military Watch Caps & Tactical Winter Hats for Cold Weather Operations

The military watch cap, the wool knit beanie that has been issued to U.S. service members since World War II, is the simplest and most effective piece of cold-weather headwear available. Covering the ears and back of the head, where the most heat is lost, a quality wool or wool-blend watch cap extends comfortable operating temperature by 10 to 15 degrees compared to bare-headed alternatives. Every watch cap in this collection is built to that standard.
