What are the purposes of the string and loop attached to the top of the beanie, respectively?
With both a tightening string and an accessory attached to the top of the beanie, one might wonder what roles they serve. This question aims to check how they are handled when worn on the head and around the neck.
They serve to change the shape so heat from the head can be vented or so it can be worn around the neck, and to neatly secure the excess string left over after tightening.
A tightening string and a small loop are attached together at the top of the hat. This beanie from SIERRA DESIGNS can be worn in two ways—as a hat worn on the head or as a neck gaiter wrapped around the neck—by tightening or unfolding the top portion[1]. The opening is opened and closed depending on its use. When worn as a beanie, untightening the top string allows heat and body warmth rising from the head to vent out[2]. This means when activity levels rise and you sweat, you can loosen only the string to let air circulate without taking off the hat entirely.
When the string is pulled closed to fit the head, the excess cord hangs down long. The accessory that neatly holds this lengthened string is the string holder[3]. It firmly secures the string so that it does not flap against the face or the back of the neck even when the wind blows or movements become large. hmmm, it can be said to be thoughtfully arranged so that it provides a passage for opening and closing while ensuring the exposed string does not get in the way.

The coupling structure or specific operating method of the string holder has not yet been confirmed in official materials.
