When the weather is brighter and drier we choose the Atacama cap - a lightweight peaked cap with a zip-away legionnaire’s flap and UV protection. The polyamide supplex outer and mesh lining is highly breathable in hot weather, and a wicking brow band on the inside helps to keep perspiration at bay. Highly packable, the baseball-style cap has a 7cm triple-fold peak that is easily stowed away when not needed to keep the sun from your eyes. There’s also a midge and mosquito-repellent outer fabric that keeps biting insects away in warmer climates.
