Its a hat.
Beanies are smaller. They're also not winter hats, they're a lot thinner

I thought they were called tuques. :confused:

At least that's what we've always called them, and I live in Ohio, Hsu. Maybe it's regional, though.

GrimsbyHow are the fish today? :goofy:

I'd call it a hat, and if you asked what type I'd say ski hat. It's not a beanie because it's too big to be a beanie.

I'd agree with Psychotic its just a hat

If you held me at gun point for a specific answer, I would say beanie, but there would be little confidence behind that answer

Well, yeah, it's a hat. It sits on your head.

But the hat in question is most definitely a beanie. And I love beanies!

Maybe I'm too metrosexual, I call them by fashion slang, not by casual slang.

Beanie. Or I've come to know them by "Skull caps" which seems to be a more official product term.

The ones where you have to fold them up once we call sock hats.
The ones you just pull ove your head without a fold is a beanie to me and my friend.
