Skida! They make high quality hats, headbands, neckwear and other items for the winter (and fall). I went to college with the founder in VT, their shop is in Burlington, and most of their products are sewn in the NEK (I believe only their cashmere items are produced outside of VT).

Skids is probably the “lifestyle” brand for people who are trying to fit an aesthetic.

I’m looking at you upper middle class VT soccer moms from November to April.

I call Skida the Lula Roe of the headband/hat world because of their busy and colorful patterns.

My sister has had to do shows with the owner. Apparently she's an a-hole. I've been discouraged from buying any more of their stuff for that reason. Unfortunate.

I’m sorry to hear that. I always liked her and did not find her to be like that at all, but obviously I can only speak to my own experience.

Skida is the best! I might be biased though, living in the NEK :)
