When the temperature drops, a cozy hat becomes an essential part of your winter wardrobe. Here, we've rounded up 18 of the best women's winter hats from AliExpress—from classic beanies and earflap hats to stylish berets and visors. We focused on materials, fit, and how each hat performs in real-life conditions.
Mini Guide: How to Choose a Winter Hat
Materials & Warmth. Cashmere and angora provide more warmth than acrylic, keep their shape, and are breathable. Double-knit construction or a fleece lining adds extra insulation without making the hat bulky.
Fit & Comfort. Beanies come in slimmer and oversized styles; make sure your pick covers your ears, stays put, and doesn’t feel too tight. Stretchy knits adapt to your head shape, and a deeper fit offers extra wind protection.
Style Tips. Solid basics are perfect with coats and puffer jackets, while textured or embellished hats work great with parkas and casual looks. Pick a style that matches your wardrobe: close-fitting beanies for sporty outfits, berets for feminine silhouettes, and earflap hats for extreme cold.
Wool & Cashmere Beanies
This section features 100% cashmere, alpaca, and angora beanies, plus fleece-lined and pom-pom options. They’ll keep you warm for city strolls or all-day adventures.
Earflap Hats & Bomber Styles
Faux fur, leather accents, and adjustable straps keep out the wind and cold for ultimate protection.
Balaclavas & Hoods for Extreme Cold
3-in-1 face masks, sherpa balaclavas, and hooded scarves protect your face and neck—perfect for skiing or spending long hours outdoors.
Plush & Warm Bucket Hats
Plush and wool fabrics cover your ears and forehead—perfect for windy days. They’re a fun, practical addition to your everyday outfits.
Wool Berets for Winter
A mix of classic and retro vibes: thick wool, felt, and Audrey Hepburn-inspired shapes. Pair these berets with feminine outfits—a coat, trench, or long cardigan.
Playful Ears & Cute Details
Bear or cat ears and anime-inspired accents add a playful touch to your look—ideal for casual hangouts or whenever you want a bit of fun.
Choose the right hat for your wardrobe and climate: cashmere for milder winters, earflap and balaclava styles for extreme cold. Hand wash wool and angora in cool water and lay flat to dry—they'll keep their shape and stay soft all season long.
