The best-selling peaked cap for hikers, runners, and climbers who refuse to compromise on performance. The Outdoor Research Swift Cap wicks sweat, vents heat, and shields your head with UPF 50+ sun protection — all at a featherlight 71g.
Picture this: you're three hours into a summer ridge walk, the sun is high, and your cap is doing exactly what it should — sitting snug, keeping you cool, and shading your eyes without a second thought. That's the Swift Cap.
A full mesh liner delivers superior ventilation in warm weather, while the shaped curved peak brim offers serious sun protection from spring through to autumn. Its low profile fits neatly under a helmet for climbers and ski tourers, and the quick-release buckle ensures a secure, adjustable fit every time.
