Two weeks removed from a massive price drop on one of Amazon’s best-selling Columbia jackets, fall gear styles continue to pop up on mega-sale, and at the most opportune time. With the seasonal chill setting in, warm accessories like men’s gloves, scarves, and heated apparel are starting to gain momentum. But there’s one specific men’s beanie on Amazon that can’t be ignored, and it makes an incredible holiday gift.
The Etsfmoa beanie with integrated headlamp is an Amazon favorite, boasting more than 18,500 five-star ratings, and right now, it’s on sale for $13. On top of that, the brand is offering a coupon for an additional 35% off at checkout, bringing the total down to just $8—a 72% discount from the original price of $30.

This luminescent beanie from Etsfmoa is, first and foremost, a thick, warm hat. The lamp component, which is completely removable thanks to a snap-in-place mechanism, features four LED bulbs and three different brightness settings with a max output of 150 lumens, plenty of power to brighten up a dark room. Not only is the lamp completely rechargeable thanks to a built-in USB-A connector, but the snap-in-place mechanism also makes the hat easy to wash. We recommend using the gentle cycle setting or simply hand-washing and then allowing it to air-dry.
At first glance, this seems like a very gimmicky product. However, when looking through the reviews and considering common everyday situations, that couldn’t be further from the truth; there are dozens of real-life applications in which wearing this would make sense. For example, some people use this beanie as a safety precaution for cold-weather nighttime running, while others use it for seeing under the hood when working on cars in auto garages that stay open to the elements. Some also use it to see gear shifters when snowblowing.

Many of the reviews describe how well-received this product is when gifted to somebody. One customer, who gifted this beanie to their father, said it was a hit despite their dad being difficult to impress. “This was a gift for my dad, who likes going on runs and walks outside early in the morning before the sun even comes up in the winter, so this was a great gift for him,” they said. “He said it’s very warm and was a great gift (and he is picky) so this was a win.”
Another customer, who was gifted this beanie, went as far as to say it’s the best hat ever. They said, “I got this as a Christmas gift from a coworker who knew I had animals to tend to in the dark every morning and evening before and after work. I was confused about the USB charger at first because it doesn’t look like the typical USB but it fit right into the USB port on my laptop and started charging. A must-have for anyone who works outside in the winter/dark.”
While it comes in nearly 40 colors, black is by far the best deal to be had at a whopping 72% off. The most affordable, however, is the light blue, which is only $6 with the coupon. If this seems like the type of gift that would be perfect for somebody in your life (or yourself), now is the time to get one because it will almost certainly go back up in price soon.
