What benefits can I expect from the F-SERIES Cap?
The F-SERIES Cap is designed to elevate your outdoor experience with premium features and thoughtful craftsmanship. As a 1% For The Planet contributor, it supports environmental initiatives, while its Bluesign® certified fabric ensures sustainable quality.
The cap offers UPF +50 sun protection on key areas, keeping you safe from harmful rays, and its unisex design, adjustable closure, and pliable brim deliver a comfortable, custom fit that’s easy to pack. With four breathable mesh panels and a SWIFTdry™ sweat-absorbing headband, it keeps you cool and dry, while a dark underbill reduces glare.
What is the difference between the M-SERIES, F-SERIES and R-SERIES caps?
The M-SERIES Cap is designed to be highly breathable and moisture-wicking, ideal for keeping you cool during intense activity. It also features UPF +50 sun protection on the brim and sides, along with a pliable brim for comfort and packability.
The F-SERIES Cap is built with a more fitted and sleek aesthetic. It features a shorter 5cm peak and a reworked curved panel structure that improves breathability and performance. With a 56.5cm circumference, the F-Series offers a more snug, tailored fit for those who prefer a closer, more athletic look.
The R-SERIES Cap is engineered for a more streamlined, aerodynamic fit, ideal for racing and high-performance use. It uses a lighter, more structured design to reduce drag, combined with moisture-wicking fabrics and sun protection.

Can I wash my F-SERIES Cap?
Whilst the F-SERIES Cap is designed to keep you cool and dry, it is a given that you may want to wash the cap from time to time. That's why Fractel have ensured their F-SERIES Cap can be machine washed on a cold cycle. Use of a washable bag is recommended where possible.
