Tilley Airflo Cap with Cape TTMC-Cap
A superb, lightweight legionnaire-style cap. Designed with a 7 3/4" cape that tucks away neatly inside a pocket so you can have more sun protection when you need it most. The visor offers substantial upper-cheek sun protection and the lightweight fabric will repel the rain. This unique design incorporates mesh fabric into crown for coolness and comfort on hot days. Being a "Tilley", it's about as good a cap as you`ll find Anywhere.
The Tilley Airflo Cap features:
- Kkahi with Olive underbrim
- Guaranteed for life
- Insured against loss
- Excellent sun protection
- Repels rain
- Ties on in the wind
- Machine washable (won`t shrink)
- The Cap has an internal size-adjustment device that allows you to adjust it to suit your unique head size.
- Sizes: Large fits 7 1/4 to 7 1/2 and XL fits 7 5/8 to 8
- FLOATS: A layer of closed-cell foam in the crown, and sometimes in the brim, provides the Tilley's positive buoyancy. This is a boon to boaters and fishermen/women/people. Good grief!
- TIES ON: The Tilley Cap comes with a tuckaway, adjustable, fore 'n' aft Wind Cord. When it's calm, the Wind Cord stays hidden in the crown. When there's a breeze, place the part with the sliding knots behind your head. When it's windy or you're sailing, use the chin part too.
- REPELS RAIN: Made of Tilley Nylamtium®, the Cap excels at repelling rain. It won't shrink, and repels mildew too.
- HYDROFIL® ANTI-SWEAT BAND: Soft and comfortable, it picks up sweat from your forehead and wicks it away to your temple area where it evaporates.
- CERTIFIED SUN PROTECTION: The cap has been certified with an ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) of 50+, the maximum rating given. (You still need SPF 15 sunscreen and sunglasses with UV filters! Children especially need the UV filters in their sunglasses as non-filtering glasses will increase the size of their pupils, allowing even more of the damaging UV rays to enter. This often causes cataracts and retinal problems later in life and has happened in my (Alex Tilley's) own family).
Although acknowledged as the best-made and most practical hats of their type in the world, no Tilley Hat, or anything else we make, is ‘perfect’. We have fun trying to make our ‘stuff’ better. We began to use Hydrofil as a sweatband material because it helps perspiration evaporate more quickly; we added a special plastic wire to better support the brims of some of our Hats; we added a sunglasses holder to all Hats that have ventilation grommets, and more recently, mesh to many of our lighterweight Hats, to help you remain cool and comfortable. Most of our hats have been designed in unisex styles to be worn by men and women.
