FAQs

Does this hat provide protection against rain?

Yes, the fabric is water-repellent, meaning it handles light rain or mist well, though it is not a fully waterproof rain hat.

What does UPF 40+ mean?

UPF 40+ indicates that the fabric blocks at least 97.5% of the sun's UVA and UVB radiation from reaching the skin.

Can I put this hat in the dryer?

It is recommended to air dry the hat to prevent shrinkage and maintain the effectiveness of the technical fabric treatments.

Is the material stretchy?

The hat is made of durable polyester designed to hold its shape rather than stretch, providing a consistent fit.

Is this hat suitable for all ages?

This model is specifically designed for kids. Please refer to the size guide to ensure it fits your child's head measurement.

How do I label the hat?

There is a dedicated internal name label integrated into the inner band where you can write the child's name using a permanent marker.

Troubleshooting

Hat feels loose or slips off during activity

Ensure the hat is positioned correctly; if it continues to slip, consider using a chin strap accessory if applicable or checking the size against the child's head circumference.

Fabric appears to hold moisture after intense activity

Ensure the hat is not being worn over damp hair and allow it to air out thoroughly between uses to let the Feel-Dry technology reset.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

There is no setup required for the Jack Wolfskin Explorer Hat; simply adjust the fit upon arrival. To ensure longevity, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with like colors.
  2. Drying: Air dry whenever possible to preserve the fabric's integrity and protective coatings.
  3. Avoid Bleach: Do not use harsh detergents or bleach, as these can degrade the moisture-wicking and sun-protective properties.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use, and avoid folding it sharply for extended periods to maintain the brim shape.
