What criteria must a cap meet in order to qualify as "uv-protective"?
UV protection standards for hats are very specific: The fabric must of course be anti-UV (UPF index greater than 50), but this is not enough to claim the finished product is anti-UV. The cap also needs to have a panel width that completely protects the face and neck.The Trek 900 cap meets these requirements so you can go hiking with complete peace of mind: you are perfectly protected!
Why is the inside of the visor darker?
When you walk in the sand, the sun’s rays reflect off the inside of the visor and can dazzle you. To avoid this, we chose a darker colour that avoids this unpleasant reflection.
Why hide your face in the desert?
Those who have already experienced one will confirm that sandstorms are frequent in the desert. So you need to cover your face if you do not want to be eating sand for the rest of your trek!Our cap has 2 press studs to hold the cap’s cover in front of your face.This function also protects the face and neck from UV rays.
Why protect your neck?
You may not know it, but sunstroke does not come just from exposing your head to UV. You can also get sunstroke if your neck is exposed. To prevent this, our Desert 900 cap has long panels that cover the back of the neck, down to the shoulders.

Bought 2 caps before going away. Received them ans I've realised that one says spf50 and the other cap says spf40! Bit annoyed about this.
I bought this hat on a last minute whim, having seen a video of climbers covering heads & faces on the approach to Aconcagua. I wore it on the 26km walk in through hot & dusty conditions and in 35 degrees heat. Then again for all the climbs up to camps, until the temperatures dropped. Same again on the 26km walk back out, again in incredibly hot & dusty conditions. The cap can be used in about 5 different permutations, so is extremely flexible depending on conditions & needs. My expedition mates were extremely jealous as they tried to balance caps, buffs and tops to reliably protect themselves from the sun. At our post expedition dinner this cheap & simple item was unanimously voted best piece of kit - over & above all the fancy/expensive stuff you need for a climb of that scale
Wish I'd had this cap this summer, bought it at the end of the season so haven't had chance to try it yet. It's made of light, cool material and can be worn open or closed. Easily adjustable for size but the peak might be a little long for visibility while working.
