FAQs
Is the Rains Waterproof Cap truly waterproof?
Yes, it is constructed from Rains' signature waterproof PU fabric with a 4000 mm water column rating, which is highly effective in rain.
Does this cap come in different sizes?
The cap is designed as a one-size-fits-most accessory, easily adjusted via the rear webbing strap.
Can I put this cap in the washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it will degrade the waterproof coating. Spot cleaning is the best method.
Does it provide sun protection?
While the brim provides shade, the primary design focus is on water and wind protection rather than UV-blocking ratings.
Is the cap breathable?
Yes, it features integrated ventilation eyelets to facilitate airflow and prevent overheating during use.
What is the weight of the cap?
The cap is very lightweight, weighing approximately 90g.
Troubleshooting
Water pooling on the brim
The brim is designed to channel water away. Ensure you are wearing the cap at the correct angle so the curve of the brim points downward.
Material feels slightly stiff
PU fabric can firm up in cold temperatures. Simply wearing the cap will allow your body heat to return the fabric to its natural, flexible state.
Strap adjustment slipping
Ensure the webbing strap is threaded correctly through the buckle teeth; if it slips, make sure the buckle is locked securely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your cap remains in peak condition, follow these simple care guidelines:
- Adjustment: Use the rear webbing strap and buckle to cinch the cap until it sits snugly above your eyebrows; the strap tucks neatly for a clean look.
- Cleaning: Wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as these can damage the waterproof PU coating.
- Drying: Always allow the cap to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources, such as radiators or heaters, which may warp the material.
