Upton Hat - Blue

Yes, the sherpa fleece lining and insulated ear flaps are designed to provide significant warmth in freezing conditions.

It is recommended to hand wash the hat in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid machine washing, fabric softener, bleach, and tumble drying.

The Aquasealz membrane is a 100% waterproof and breathable layer integrated into the hat's construction, preventing water from entering while allowing perspiration vapor to escape.

The foldable peak allows the hat to be compressed and stored easily in a pocket or backpack, making it convenient for travel or when not in use.

The ear flaps are not removable but can be fastened up and out of the way when not needed.

The hat features a durable polyester outer, a breathable Aquasealz waterproof membrane, and a soft polyester sherpa fleece lining.

The product information does not specify UV protection. Its primary function is protection against cold, wind, and water.

This is likely due to internal moisture from perspiration. Ensure the hat is not too tight and consider adjusting ear flaps for better ventilation. Check care instructions for proper cleaning, as residues can affect breathability.

Inspect the hat for any punctures or significant wear, especially around seams. Ensure the outer fabric is clean, as dirt can impede the waterproof membrane's function. Follow care instructions carefully, as harsh detergents or improper drying can damage the membrane.

Ensure the ear flaps are aligned correctly with the fastening points. The material may be stiff initially; try gently working the flaps to make them more pliable. Check that the buckle clip is not obstructed.
