Can someone recommend a good warm hat for running for the winter. I would like something that has a pony tail hole in the back too. I see a million hats online and just not sure what is the best way to go. Also if you have gloves you love. I have a nike pair which I like a lot but I think as it gets colder I might need something warmer. thanks!

Check out the Underarmour ones.
I prefer wearing a headband but that's because I overheat really easily0 -
I like the Brooks gloves with the little magnets by the wrist; helps keep them together when I'm not running and they are easy to find in the dryer. I also have a pair of "convertibles" that have fold-over mittens, I only wore those for SUPER cold (teens or lower) days.
Nike makes a heavy hat that has material similar to the UA cold gear that is good for when temps drop below freezing. Warmer than that and it is to warm. I do not know if they make a version with a ponytail hole.0 -
UA hats (yes plural). If you run more than one day in a row, you'll want more than one so you don't have to wash it every time. Same with gloves. I think I have 5 hats and about 7 pair of gloves of different weights.0

Thanks! I've been wearing a Nike headband and I like it but I think when it gets below 30 I'm going to want a full hat. I'll check out UA.0

I love my trailheads ponytail hat, but like Carson said, you need several. For gloves i actually go as lightweight as possible. I have a couple of pairs i picked up from City Sports.0

I have a snood, which I vary position depending on weather.0

thanks everyone! I agree on having more than one of everything.0

I usually don;t wear a hat, but when it is extremely cold I will wear a facemask0

I have a couple bondi band ponytail hats that I love. They have all different colors and designs too. Keep in mind though that I don't live in a very cold place. So I don't know how good they would be in real arctic air.0

I heat up pretty quickly...got my own natural lathers of insulation going on still...so i'm not a fan of thick hats. I do however love my lululemon hat with the pony tail hole. its the same material as their head bands so not very thick, but i find it keeps my head warm when running in -5 degree weather...if its windy, I use something of the similar type of material that you can convert into many things including a face mask...can't remember the name of it though, i bought it at the running room. it was pretty cheap as well $25.
Good luck!0 -
and by lathers i meant *layers*0

I brought a UA hat and wore it today for the first time - it was 32 when I ran. Love love love it. Had a hole in the back for my pony, comfortable and stayed in place the whole run. Thanks for all the suggestions everyone!0

Glad you found something you like. Now go buy two more so you can rotate them

Is there a way you can post the link to this item? I have a UA facemask that I use during deep winter months but I'm looking for a beanie/hat. Thanks so much

Let me see if I can find them online, if not I'll look at the tag when I get home.

For a hat I like trailheads. I have a head band and my husband has the hat and we have never had a problem keeping warm. They have various styles including headbands and hats with ponytail holes if needed.
For running gloves I have Pearl Izumi wind mitts and they are great. They are a regular fingered glove and have a windproof mitten you can pull over the fingers for extra protection. When not using the wind proof there is a little pouch they can be tucked into.0 -

I'll have to check the gloves out. I have nikes and don't like them.
