I have a few '80s vintage pieces of ski apparel including a couple of hats by Smiley that look like these:

Mine are made of all wool without a fleece lining, I've seen a few recently but they were also fleece lined. Any recommendations for all natural fiber (merino, wool, cashmere, etc all are good in my book) classic nordic ski cap like these?

Smiley is almost impossible to search on and they appear defunct?

There are probably a million people making them and selling them on Etsy.
