No the battle. Which is where the name comes from.

That's the only kind of winter hat my son will wear. We had to call it a Kimi (Raikkonen) hat before he'd put it on. It's still a "Kimi hat" around here. :lol:

Just ask for a ski mask. They're sold everywhere.

Infant Balaclava hats

I have searched the internet...and I am looking for the 'ski' type pull over head wear for infants. It comes in wool and silk. I live in Kansas (Wizard of OZ land) and do not have an out let for this item. Does anyone have a favorite website where I can purchase this headwear?

Are you talking about the lighter ones that are also used in the Spring or just the heavy winter ones?

Try here, they make wonderful products (of great quality for infants)...
http://www.ruskovilla.fi/uk/index.cfm They are Finnish, they take Visa and if in doubt, just phone them.

Reima also have outlets in the USA - we have used Reima for hats and snowsuits and gloves without any problems- would recommend them.
