weight

How do you measure a fabric's quick drying capacity?
The product is machine washed 3 times then line dried, then we immerse it in water and measure how long it takes to get back to its pre-wash weight.
This cap gets a very good score of 4 out of 5 stars returning to its pre-wash weight between 80 and 120 minutes following submersion
Why have we used checked fabric?
The crosshatched fabric is a mesh-type fabric. The warp and weft design helps ensure durability and prevent potential tears and stop tears.
It is therefore particularly durable compared to a smooth canvas, for example.
Wash separately.
Approved by
a panel of independent trekkers, to ensure complete impartiality, backpacking in Greece and Southern Europe. The team of trekkers covered over 300 km over a period of 5 consecutive weeks.
Storage advice
Do not tumble dry as this could damage the peak.
