Ear warmers to wear with riding hat?

[TakeAChance]

Can anyone recommend any? Just got dreadful earache riding out in the wind and need to invest in some ear warmers pronto! Are there any that are designed for wearing under/around a riding hat?

 

[Cashew]

Not sure about earwarmers but I have a Buff (one that is half fleece and half material) so when it is really cold I can put the thinner section up onto my head and also pull it up over my nose so just my eyes are peeking out. Hat fits on top too so not a problem. Hope you get sorted as earache is awful.

I have a pair of earwarmers which attach to the harness of the hat with velcro so no need to try and fit a band under your hat.
I got them off ebay last year - will see if I can find them to show you

Thanks for your replies, I like the sound of these, would be interested to know the make or see a pic. Will also look up the Buff.

The racing websites like gibsons from newmarket sell them. I got a set from a big tack shop near me just waiting for christmas now .

Buff's can be found at most motorbike retailers, brilliant things as have so many different uses

heres some that go on the straps on your hat

 

[MinxGTi]

I cheat and just use a scarf
Place the centre of the scarf on the top of your head, put your hat on, and cross the ends under your chin then over your shoulders! Warm ears and neck!

 

[TakeAChance]

Oooh, they look cool Dafthoss, thanks

I got these for last Christmas http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FLEECE-EA...lothing_MJ&hash=item27c0712aa2#ht_2209wt_1185, this style for skull and the seller does another for a traditional riding hat, they have been a lifesaver in cold weather and have just gone back on for this winter.

I have one too - great to keep the chill off your ears and chin. The only thing that fits under a snug fitting hat.

I wear my Mark Todd ones under my hat They are only £4!

 

[TakeAChance]

Oooh, I'm loving the look of all these toasty ear warmers! Now I just have to decide which to go for. The ones that fit on your hat straps look great, but the buff has the added advantage of keeping your neck and face warm. Hmm, dilemma! Just had a look on the buff website and there are so many different types. Are yours the slim fit ones? Don't want to choose one that's too chunky to go under my hat!

 

[Bettyboo222]

These are brill, they fit under your hat and absorb sweat and they are only £1 in primark

 

[Cuppatea]

i have these:

they are so simple but so effective, keep the back of your neck warm too. I wear them working the horses, hunting and on the yard under a cap. I cant fit the normal fleecy ones under my hat, id have to have a hat a size too big to do that....
i also have one of these for when it is REALLY cold!

Mine is slim fit and not actually a Buff - I think it's a cycling brand called Oxford (cheaper than the Buff)

Do they fit under your hat? I have one but think they would be too thick to fit under my hat, will try it out tonight!

I use to swear by these when I worked in racing out early and all weathers kept my ears lovely and warm

Didn't realise they made so many - mine is the Polar Buff half fleecy and half material. Amazon sell them as do camping/walking/skiing type shops. Have also seen them in TK Maxx in the skiing section.

I wear a silk balaclava made to go under a motorcycle helmet, it looks rubbish but keeps me warm. Or, what's wrong with a nice silk scarf tied under the chin just like our dear Majesty? Only she doesn't wear a riding helmet on top of course.

The mountain horse ones are thin enough to get under a hat http://www.4dobbin.com/p-Orbit-Headband-Mountain-Horse.html

I got this as a present one year and it is fantastic for freezing weather! http://www.snug-gear.co.uk/index.ph...category_id=6&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=53

Have also had a thin silk balaclava which kept me quite warm too.

Woof wear do a black one thats thin enough to wear under your hat. Ive asked for one for xmas!

 

[TakeAChance]

Wow, so many replies, thank you all so much I've ordered a Buff and the Mark Todd head band. Quite excited now. Little things eh?!

 

[mini-eventer]

TIP - they are always sold in TKMaxx (if allowed to tell you!) in lots of different patterns and quite often reduced!

 

[ChestnutConvert]

I can recommend things like this as well...

Made to go under motorbike helmets so fit well. Avoid fleece over the mouth area uless you don't mind condensation!

Sleek horsewear do really funky fleecy ones, they are on FB if you want to look. They have loads of different designs including sheep
