Outdoor Research Swift Cap – UPF 40+, Lightweight, Breathable, Quick-Dry

I picked up this OR Swift Cap for hiking and travel, and it’s been excellent. The hat is incredibly light — I barely notice it on my head, even on long walks — and the UPF sun protection gives extra peace of mind on bright days. The breathable mesh keeps air flowing so I stay cool instead of hot and sweaty, and the brim provides solid shade without being too stiff. It packs down easily into a backpack or luggage, which has been perfect for trips. If you want a comfortable, functional sun hat for outdoor activities, this one checks all the boxes.

Lightweight, foldable, ventilation, good quality, durable, comfortable plus lots of compliments. Versatile-match with variety of outfits. The ONLY hat I’ve worn for the last ten years. I finally bought a second one in another color. It’s traveled with me everywhere, all over the world. Love it!

Incredibly comfortable, lightweight, and amazingly breathable. I sweat A LOT, (I’m in the SE US where humidity is insane) and I’ve tried various caps and sun hats over the years and this takes the cake. It packs down easily, keeps its shape, and does an excellent job all around. Highly recommend. This is well worth the money.

I can't say enough about this beautiful cap. I bought the black one, and it looks perfect. It's probably the best one I ever had. It's easily adjustable and very light. In fact, when I wear it, I do not feel it on my head. It's also very breathable via the mesh, so my head never gets sweaty. It's easily foldable and easy to carry around, even in your pocket. Not your pants' pocket, though. This is the only color I liked. The other colors look kind of strange to me when looking in the mirror. But that's just my own aesthetic preference. I love black, and this is a perfect combination of black and dark gray

This was a great hat and it was just as described and they got many positive reviews. However, it was just a bit too large for my husband, so we had to return it. Too bad.

Fit is perfect, materials feel high quality, very breathable with the mesh, looks and feels great. I have two and they are my go to hats if I’m not looking for neck coverage.

Comfortable, lightweight and cool in the hot sun.

I forgot my hat on a recent climbing trip to Moab. The sun was ferocious, and fortunately a friend lent me his OR Sun Runner cap. As a testament to how much I liked the hat, I ordered an OR hat immediately after I returned. I didn't want the side panels of the Sun Runner cap (I always bring a bandana, and I unfold it and wear it under my hat if I really need to cover my ears and neck), so I ordered the Swift Sun Hat in fatigue. The hat is typical Outdoor Research quality, which is to say excellent. As with the hat I wore in Moab, I think it will be excellent as a sun hat. It is very light and has a very comfortable fit. The adjustment tab has a quick release buckle, which seems useless to me but is very low profile, so that's fine. I really like the 'fatigue' color, which is a nice olive, light enough to not absorb too much sunlight and without the slightly dumpy army-navy store color common to olive drab. It's casual enough looking to not look like I'm trying to golf at Mara-Lago and neat enough looking that I wore it in the rain to an engineering meeting without looking unprofessional. There is one kind of odd aspect to the hat: the mesh side panels are actually the sides of a complete mesh cap. The top of the mesh cap is hidden because the nylon top panel (the olive part, in my case) is actually a completely separate 'awning' secured at the front and the back of the brim. I think the purpose is to provide a bit more insulation and ventilation between the head and the sun. It makes the hat a tad heavier (it's still really light) and I suppose could theoretically catch on brush if you're thrutching through dense vegetation, but honestly I don't think the difference would be really noticeable. Either the Swift or Sun Runner seem to be good choices. Final analysis, I don't see much to criticize. It seems very practical for hot weather and sun, and probably fine in cool weather as well. It packs well and looks cool. It'll probably end up as my go-to hat for hiking, running, and activities in sunny and/or arid areas. Highly recommended.

登山用に購入しました。風で飛ばないようにいつものようにアゴヒモを縫い付けようと思ってましたが、かぶってみるとその必要がないほどフイットしました。私の頭は横と後頭部が張っていて、その部分を包み込むようなかぶり心地なんです。少し深めに作られているんでしょうね。

年間通してアウトドアに出ることが多いので、ヘッドギアはいろいろ揃えてますが、このキャップがもっともしっくりくる。年間通して必需品です。洗っても速攻で乾くから、ウォーキング、フィッシング、タウンユースでも大活躍です。

Super hat 4th one I have purchased very cool in the heat I where a hat everyday 7days a week 365

Ho usato questo cappello per varie giornate di trekking quest'estate. Fa il suo dovere, protegge bene dal sole senza farmi sudare di piu.
