Full details

Its key benefit is its extreme portability, allowing you to fold it flat and store it easily, providing sun protection whenever needed.

FAQs
What makes this cap 'packable'?
The cap features an unstructured, five-panel design made from soft, flexible material, allowing it to be folded flat and easily stored in a pocket or bag without losing its shape.
How do I adjust the fit of the cap?
There is a low-profile rear adjustment strap that you can easily fine-tune to achieve a snug and secure fit for your head size.
What is the weight of the cap?
The Rab Vista 5 Panel Cap weighs approximately 44.5g (1.6oz), making it very lightweight for comfortable wear.
Is this cap suitable for very active sports?
While comfortable and adjustable, its lightweight and packable nature is best suited for casual wear and everyday outdoor activities rather than high-intensity sports where a more secure, structured fit might be preferred.
What material is the cap made from?
The product description states it is made of a soft, flexible, robust, and smooth-to-the-touch material designed for comfort and durability.
Does the cap have ventilation?

How should I clean the cap?
It is recommended to hand wash the cap with cold water and mild soap, avoiding bleach and tumble drying. Reshape while damp and dry flat.
Troubleshooting
Cap feels too tight or too loose.
Adjust the low-profile rear strap. Loosen it if too tight, and tighten it if too loose until a comfortable and secure fit is achieved.
Cap loses its shape after washing.
Gently reshape the cap while it is still damp after washing. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, which can distort the material.
Embroidery or woven label is damaged.
Handle the cap with care. Avoid abrasive cleaning methods or materials that could snag the threads of the embroidery or woven label.
