Built with the same performance as the Alaskan Hardgear Galebreak Shirt and fit for wandering well beyond where roads go. The hat is made of performance nylon fabric that stops wind in its tracks and resistant snags from brush and low-hanging branches. It offers solid sun defense in the form of UPF40 protection, with a wicking band to keep sweat out of your eyes as you work your way through unfriendly terrain. Mist and light rain bead up and roll off the DWR treated fabric. And the main body fabric is made of recycled nylon, something welcome to anyone who wants to keep that great wilderness the way it is.
