For a lot of people, finding the perfect winter accessories can be a challenge. Many options give you warmth but lack style, while others look great but don’t hold up in cold weather conditions. Skida’s High Pile Fleece Hat and High Pile Mitts from the Hygge collection offer the best of both worlds — keeping you warm during outdoor adventures while remaining stylish enough for everyday wear.
From snowy hikes to daily errands, here are four reasons why this fleece set belongs in your winter wardrobe.
Warmth in any condition
When temperatures drop, reliable insulation is key. The High Pile Fleece Hat and Mitts are designed to trap warmth while remaining breathable, making them ideal for extended wear.
- The hat gives you full ear coverage without feeling tight, ensuring warmth even in strong winds.
- The mitts extend past your wrists to keep out cold air out and keep your hands comfortable for longer.
On an all-day snowshoeing trip to Rocky Mountain National Park, the fleece set kept my head, ears and hands cozy in the face of biting winds. And since the mittens cover past my wrists (and the hat generously covers my ears), I could enjoy the trek and focus on the views instead of worrying about the weather — just as it should be!
Style and functionality
Winter gear doesn’t have to be purely functional. The Skida High Pile set brings style and practicality together, offering cozy aesthetics without sacrificing performance.
- The Cordovan color of the hat adds a unique and rich tone to winter outfits.
- The mitts in Moonless (deep black) pair effortlessly with any coat or jacket.
- The plush, shearling fleece provides a soft, stylish look that stands out from traditional outdoor gear.
This hat gives you a sleek pop of color which I really appreciate. It makes for a seamless transition between a day on the trails to a casual night out. And it’s the perfect combo for a weekend getaway.
Comfort without bulk
Your winter accessories should be warm, but not at the expense of comfort. The ultra-soft fleece — in both the hat and mitts — gives you warmth without feeling heavy or restrictive.
- The hat is lightweight and flexible, making it comfortable to wear for hours.
- The mittens have a soft lining and allow for natural hand movement, so they don’t feel stiff or bulky.
Even after hours of wear, the fleece set stayed comfortable. This is a solid choice for outdoor activities and running errands. When I need to brave the cold, this combo is easily my favorite go-to.
Built for durability & convenience
A good winter set should last for multiple seasons. Skida’s fleece mitts go beyond basic warmth by offering reinforced durability and extra functionality.
- The palms and thumbs feature dyed goat leather, improving grip and wear resistance.
- Touchscreen compatibility allows for easy phone use without removing the mitts.
- Both the hat and mitts are made from recycled shearling Polartec® fleece, offering sustainable warmth with a durable, high-quality feel.
So, if you’re looking for a winter set that lasts through daily use and outdoor adventures, this is a solid investment.
