Caped Merganzer Hat
The Caped Merganzer Hat excels during long sessions on the water and full days in the sun. Depending on your need for sun protection and airflow, this quick-drying, sweat-wicking hat can be worn three ways, thanks to the adjustable cape. It's built from 100% recycled polyester stretch ripstop fabric that's treated with a durable water repellent (DWR) finish made without intentionally added PFAS, and the flexible brim floats in case you take an unexpected swim. Made in a Fair Trade Certified™ factory.
Information
Features
Protective Brim
Wider-than-average floating brim provides more sun protection; when the cape is buttoned down, the wider brim allows more airflow
Chin Strap
Brim rope can be used as a chin strap to help keep the hat in place during windy days or duck dives
Secure On-Water Fit
Low-profile elastic cord and cord lock at the back provide a comfortable and adjustable fit
Quick-Wicking Internal Sweatband
Lightweight, low-profile sweatband offers moisture and temperature management, with MiDori® bioSoft for added wicking and softness
Wear It Three Ways
For maximum sun coverage, wear it with the cape buttoned in front of your chin; for moderate coverage and some airflow, button the cape behind your neck; for maximum airflow, tuck the cape up into the adjustable back strap
