This is a true slouchy beanie without the excess material off the back of your head. The beanie fits semi-loosely, which is great if you don’t like the feel of a tight beanie on your forehead all day. The only downside is because it is so slouchy, it sometimes falls down when I would go to pick something up off the ground (the only reason why I didn’t give it 5 stars), but it truly is one of the comfiest and cutest beanies I’ve ever owned. I love that it doesn’t have that excess material off the back of the beanie, as I always felt that looked weird on my head, so the slouch is truly in the tightness of how the beanie fits, which is great!
