FAQs

Is this hat suitable for very cold, freezing temperatures?

Yes, the sherpa fleece lining is designed for significant warmth, making it suitable for cold weather conditions. The waterproof outer layer also acts as a wind barrier.

How do I clean the Upton Hat?

Hand wash with cold water and a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softeners, bleach, or tumble dry. Air dry away from direct heat.

Can the ear flaps be fully removed?

The ear flaps are integrated into the hat's design and can be fastened up, but they are not detachable.

What makes this hat waterproof?

It features a 100% waterproof and breathable Aquasealz membrane sandwiched between the outer polyester layer and the inner sherpa fleece lining.

Is the hat machine washable?

We recommend hand washing only to preserve the waterproof membrane and fabric integrity. Machine washing can damage these components.

How does the hat handle sweat?

The hat features wicking fibers and a breathable membrane designed to allow moisture vapor from sweat to escape, helping to regulate temperature and keep you comfortable.

What is the purpose of the adjustable buckle clip?

The buckle clip allows you to adjust the fit of the hat for a secure and comfortable feel, preventing it from being too loose or too tight.

Troubleshooting

Hat feels damp inside after prolonged use.

Ensure the Aquasealz membrane is intact. Check for any damage to the fabric. If the issue persists, it may be due to high exertion levels where internal condensation can occur despite breathability.

Ear flaps are uncomfortable or do not stay fastened.

Experiment with different ways of fastening the ear flaps. Ensure the material is not creased when fastening. The fit may need to be adjusted using the buckle clip for optimal comfort.

Outer fabric appears less water-repellent over time.

Clean the hat according to care instructions. Consider a gentle re-proofing treatment specifically designed for waterproof and breathable fabrics, following the product's guidelines.
