Hiking Hats, Caps & Beanies

Hats, caps or beanies for every season

Your head is exposed to the elements when you're out walking: sun, wind, cold, rain. In summer, a hat or cap protects you from the sun's rays and heatstroke; in winter, a beanie keeps you warm, since so much body heat is lost through the head. Depending on the outing and the weather, you adapt your headwear: it's a small accessory with a big effect on comfort.

Anti-UV hats and caps for summer

Under the sun, protection comes first: a wide-brimmed hat or a bucket hat covers your face and neck, both prone to sunburn. A cap keeps your view clear and dries quickly. Look for good UV protection and a breathable fabric that wicks away sweat. In the mountains, where the sun hits harder, it's essential.

A warm, water-repellent beanie for winter

When the cold sets in, a beanie becomes essential for keeping your body heat in. A warm, windproof model protects your ears too. In the rain, a hood or a water-repellent hat keeps your head dry. Complete the set with gloves and mittens for your extremities.

For men, women and every use

Our styles come in a range of options: men's hats and caps and women's styles offer a fit and look to suit you. Light and compact, a good hat packs away easily and should be chosen to suit your activity, from a summer walk to a high-altitude trek.
