Description
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "I used this hat in the super buggy, super sunny alpine, and it handled both like a champ. The ventilation is great, and the Insect Shield kept me protected without having to constantly reapply spray."For humid hikes, swampy trails, and mosquito-rich campsites, we count on the Insect Shield Bucket Hat to keep us cool and protected. It’s built from lightweight, breathable nylon with UPF 50+ protection and treated with Insect Shield technology for long-lasting bug repellency—no sprays, no mess. The updated design includes mesh crown venting for added airflow, a daisy chain detail for clipping gear, and an adjustable chin cord to keep it secure in breezy conditions. Whether we’re portaging between lakes or hiking through dense forest, this hat has become an essential part of our kit when sun and insects are part of the forecast.
