Sun caps

Reliable sun protection for hillwalking, trail running, and long days outdoors. These caps feature UPF 50+ fabric to block harmful UV rays, breathable mesh panels for ventilation, and adjustable fit systems to stay secure in windy conditions. Many styles include detachable neck capes for full coverage on exposed ridgelines.

How to Choose Your Sun Cap

UV Protection Rating Look for UPF 50+ certification, which blocks approximately 98% of UV radiation. This offers more consistent protection than sunscreen alone, particularly during extended outdoor activities where reapplication isn't practical.

Ventilation Mesh panels and moisture-wicking fabrics help regulate temperature during physical activity. For trail running or high-intensity use, prioritise caps with multiple ventilation zones to prevent overheating.

Coverage Options Wide brims shield the face, nose, and ears. Removable neck capes provide additional protection for the back of the neck during full-day hikes or fishing trips. Consider how much coverage you need for your typical activities.

Secure Fit Adjustable drawcords or toggle systems keep caps in place during windy conditions on exposed terrain. Essential for Munro bagging or coastal walking where gusts are common.

Packability Lightweight, packable designs fold into jacket pockets or rucksack lids without losing their shape. Useful when conditions change throughout the day.
