⚡ At a Glance
- • Wearing Comfort: Ultra-light 100% recycled polyester is quick-dry, anti-wrinkle and anti-static for all-day wear
- • Best for: Runners, walkers and travellers who need packable sun protection
- • Not ideal for: Anyone seeking a rigid, structured cap for a formal look
A three-panel, inward-folding visor reduces bulk for easy packing, while UPF 50+ fabric blocks most UV rays. Stretch adjustable sizing fits head circumferences from 54–60cm and leaves room for a ponytail.
Packable and travel-friendly – Thanks to a foldable 3-panel visor
The visor measures 2 3/4 inches (7cm) and uses a three-panel inward-fold design with an unstructured front panel so the cap compresses small. Folding reduces the cap to roughly phone size for compact storage.
Tucks into a trouser pocket, sports waist bag or the included drawstring bag, making it useful for travel or race-day packing.
Sun-safe performance – With UPF 50+ tested fabric
Fabric has been tested to achieve a UPF 50+ rating, able to cut off approximately 98% of ultraviolet rays, with the exception of any breathable mesh panels. The material construction blocks direct UV transmission through the main cap fabric.
Offers reliable sun protection for long outdoor sessions, keeping scalp and forehead better shielded during runs, walks and golf.
Cool, lightweight comfort – With ultra-light recycled polyester construction
Made from 100% recycled polyester, the textile is designed to be lightweight (about 58g/2 ounces), quick-drying, anti-wrinkle and anti-static to manage moisture and maintain shape. Stretch-adjustable sizing provides a personalised fit while leaving space for a ponytail.
Feels barely there during prolonged wear and accommodates a ponytail without pulling, making it suitable for warm-weather training.
