Down hats

[Griznar]

I'm always looking for warmer hat/gloves. I recently saw Columbia has a down hat in the new Backpacker magazine. Link:

Anyone have experience with down caps? (Columbia, OR, or any other brand) Pro's, Con's, etc.

I have an Integral Designs Primalid, synthetic but same concept. I use it a ton, not while hiking obviously. It's great for stopping to glass, leaning hard on a sleeping bag rating, and generally around camp. Head insulation has a great benefit to weight ratio. On trips where my insulating layers are all hooded I usually leave it behind.
