FAQs
What makes this hat sustainable?
The BUFF® Cap Explore Booney is made with 100% recycled content, meaning the fabric is derived from post-consumer waste materials.
How effective is the sun protection?
The hat is certified UPF 50, which is the highest rating, blocking over 98% of harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation.
Can I wash this hat in a machine?
It is recommended to hand wash the hat in cold water with mild soap. Avoid bleach and do not tumble dry. Air drying in the shade is best.
Is the hat suitable for very windy conditions?
Yes, the adjustable chinstrap allows you to secure the hat firmly, making it suitable for windy conditions.
How do I store the hat when I'm not wearing it?
The hat features a built-in pocket allowing you to easily stow and carry it when not in use, making it very portable.
What material is the hat made from?
The hat is primarily made of polyester, with 100% of its content being recycled.
Is this hat adjustable for different head sizes?
While there isn't a traditional size adjustment band, the chinstrap can be adjusted to provide a more secure and customized fit.
Troubleshooting
Chinstrap is too loose or too tight
Adjust the toggles on the chinstrap to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure it's snug enough to prevent the hat from being blown away but not uncomfortably tight.
Hat does not feel secure
Double-check that the chinstrap is properly fastened and adjusted. For added security, ensure the brim is positioned correctly on your head.
Reduced sun protection effectiveness over time
While UPF protection is inherent to the fabric, prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or extreme washing can degrade materials. Follow care instructions carefully and consider replacing the hat after several years of heavy use.
