DESCRIPTION

Made for high-output sports and as hot home in the pub afterwards, this lightweight, fast-drying recycled polyester cap from Patagonia is exceptionally breathable and features a brim made of NetPlus - a material derived from 100% recycled fishing nets.

The Airshed Cap is built of 100% recycled polyester stretch ripstop fabric - which features exceptional breathability and abrasion resistance, and coated with a DWR (durable water repellent) finish that's made without PFCs (perfluorinated chemicals) to resist moisture. The wildly breathable fabric (40CFM) and front-panel structure allow excess heat to escape quickly and the soft EVA brim insert makes for next-to-forehead comfort and can stuff down for packability. With a lightweight performance hook-and-loop closure and an elastic anchor for a snug, active fit.
