Quick Answer
The Great Lakes Loons Official Store currently lists no beanies or knit winter hats, so there is no Loons-branded beanie to buy here right now. If you need a warm fan hat for a cold game day, buy a cuffed knit beanie elsewhere using the fit rules below, and use an in-stock Loons cap such as the New Era Marvel Defenders of the Diamond 59FIFTY or the Batting Loon BP 59FIFTY as your layering piece over it.
What the Loons Store Actually Stocks for Cold Weather
The store's headwear lineup is all caps, and the product records confirm that: fitted 59FIFTY styles, a flex-fit 39THIRTY, and an adjustable youth 9TWENTY. None of the supplied catalog facts describe a knit, fleece, or cuffed beanie, and no beanie appears in the current product records. That is a stock limitation, not a hint that a beanie is coming, so plan your cold-weather headwear around what is actually available.
How to Size a Cuffed Beanie Without Trying It On
Beanie sizing is not the same as fitted cap sizing. A fitted cap is sold in numbered sizes like 6-7/8 to 8, while a cuffed beanie is usually sold as one size or in a small range, and it relies on stretch to fit. Because the store does not publish beanie measurements, you cannot convert a Loons cap size directly into a beanie size. Use your head circumference instead: measure around your head just above the ears, then check the beanie maker's own size chart rather than guessing from your cap size.
- Measure your head circumference first; do not convert from a 59FIFTY or 39THIRTY size.
- Choose a cuff you can fold once or twice so you can adjust the fit and cover your ears.
- If you are between sizes, size up and use the cuff to take up the slack.
- Check the fiber content before buying; the store does not list beanie materials, so rely on the seller's description.
Why a Beanie Plus a Loons Cap Beats Either One Alone
A thin knit beanie alone will not keep rain or wind off your face, and a cap alone leaves your ears exposed. Wearing a low-profile beanie under a fitted Loons cap gives you the warmth of the knit plus the brim and team look of the cap. This works best with a cap that has some room, so a fitted 59FIFTY or a flex-fit 39THIRTY is a better base layer than a snug adjustable youth cap.
Match the Beanie to the Cap You Already Own
If you already own a Loons cap, pick a beanie color that reads as team-neutral rather than trying to match an exact shade. Navy, black, and heather gray sit well next to the Marvel Defenders of the Diamond and Batting Loon caps, and they also work with the Pontooners flex-fit. If you are buying for a child, remember the youth Dodgers BP 9TWENTY is an adjustable cotton cap, so a soft, non-itchy beanie underneath will be more comfortable than a wool one.
Cold Game Day Headwear Decision Rules
- If the temperature is above 50°F and dry: Wear a Loons cap on its own. A fitted 59FIFTY or the Pontooners 39THIRTY gives you team look and a brim without overheating. No beanie needed.
- If the temperature is 35-50°F or windy: Add a thin cuffed beanie under a fitted or flex-fit Loons cap. Fold the cuff so it covers your ears, then pull the cap on over it. Choose a cap with a little room, not a snug adjustable.
- If the temperature is below 35°F or wet: Skip the cap-over-beanie setup and wear a thick cuffed beanie alone, or a beanie under a hood. A structured cap will not keep rain off your neck. Warmth and coverage beat team branding in freezing rain.
- If you are buying for a child: Pick a soft, non-itchy beanie and pair it with the youth Dodgers BP 9TWENTY only on mild days, since the adjustable fit leaves no room for layering. Prioritize comfort over exact team match.
- If you want a Loons-branded beanie specifically: There is none in the current product records. Check back with the store rather than assuming one is available, and use a plain cuffed beanie in a team-neutral color in the meantime. Do not wait on a restock if you need warmth now.
In-Stock Loons Headwear for Cold-Weather Layering
- Great Lakes Loons New Era Marvel Defenders of the Diamond 59FIFTY Official On-Field Cap: New Era Marvel Defenders of the Diamond 59FIFTY official on-field cap, sold by size, part of the Minor League Baseball and Marvel Entertainment Defenders of the Diamond program. A fitted 59FIFTY has a structured crown, so it sits over a thin cuffed beanie without sliding and gives you a team look plus a brim for wind and rain.
- Great Lakes Loons New Era Batting Loon BP 59FIFTY Cap: New Era Batting Loon BP 59FIFTY fitted official on-field batting practice cap, 100% polyester, available in sizes 6-7/8 to 8. The polyester build handles light moisture better than cotton, making it the better cap choice for a damp, chilly game day when you are layering over a beanie.
- Great Lakes Pontooners New Era 39THIRTY M-CROWN Flex Fit Cap: Great Lakes Pontooners New Era 39THIRTY M-CROWN flex-fit cap available in S/M, M/L, and L/XL, and the M-CROWN style fits larger than normal. Flex-fit stretch makes this the easiest cap to wear over a beanie, but size down if you are between sizes because the M-CROWN runs large.
- Los Angeles Dodgers New Era Blue BP 9TWENTY Adjustable Cap - Youth: Los Angeles Dodgers New Era Blue BP 9TWENTY adjustable cap in youth sizes, 100% cotton. Adjustable cotton is fine for mild fall games, but a snug adjustable cap is hard to wear over a beanie, so treat this as a stand-alone option for kids rather than a layering piece.
Who This Cold-Weather Headwear Plan Fits
Best for
- Fans attending late-season or early-spring Loons games in Michigan

- Parents dressing kids for a chilly but dry ballpark day
Not for
- Anyone who needs a Loons-branded beanie today, since none is listed in the store
- Fans looking for a waterproof winter hat, because the in-stock caps are not described as waterproof
- Shoppers who want an exact size conversion from a fitted cap to a beanie, because the store does not publish beanie measurements
