The Trekmates Atacama Cap is designed for outdoor enthusiasts and hikers who require reliable sun protection in varying climates. Its primary advantage is the combination of high-level UPF 50+ sun protection and a modular design that transitions from a protective legionnaire-style hat to a standard baseball cap. While it excels in versatility and portability, users should note that the lightweight polyester fabric, while durable, is specifically engineered for warm-weather breathability rather than heavy-duty rain or wind insulation.

The cap is made from polyester designed for breathability and sun protection; it is not classified as waterproof.
The S/M size is tailored for smaller head circumferences, while the L/XL is designed for larger fits. Measure your head circumference to ensure a comfortable fit.
Yes, the materials are quick-drying, making it suitable for water-based activities like kayaking or beach hiking.
Yes, a dedicated stuff sack is included with every purchase for compact storage.
Wash it as needed, especially after heavy use in dusty or sweaty conditions, using a mild detergent.
The neck flap is attached via a zipper, allowing you to zip it away into the cap interior or remove it entirely depending on the model version.
Lay the cap flat in a warm, dry area for a short period to allow the crease-resistant polyester to regain its original shape.
Ensure no fabric is trapped in the zipper teeth and gently wipe the zipper track with a dry cloth to remove debris.
To configure the cap, simply zip or unzip the neck flap depending on your sun exposure needs. For storage, fold the peak along the pre-stitched lines and insert the cap into the provided stuff sack to protect the fabric and shape. For care, this cap is machine washable; however, it is recommended to wash it in a garment bag to protect the structure of the peak. Air drying is advised to preserve the integrity of the moisture-wicking brow band and the shape of the brim.
