Decent hat

Foldable hat with vents and sun protection. The brim isn't too wide and it folds down into your bag without damage.

Effective sunhat

The hat is available in different sizes, so ensured a good fit. It is comfortable to wear and offers good sun protection. The strap ensures that it stays attached even in blustery conditions. I bought the purple one for my wife and it's a good colour.

I admit, I haven't tested it yet, it's for trekking in August 2025, but around me, there are people who have already worn it, hence my purchase, and I validate it without hesitation

Very satisfied with this hat, good sun protection and less hot than a straw hat.Even on a bike, when it's a bit windy, thanks to the strap that you can adjust as you like.

With its visor, you are less dazzled and the neck is protected. The hat is flexible, so you can store it in a bag.

Additional Product Information

Composition

Main fabric: 86.0% Polyamide, 14.0% Elastane ; Inner fabric: 100.0% Polyester

What criteria must a cap meet in order to qualify as ”uv-protective”?

UV protection standards for hats are very specific: The fabric must of course be anti-UV (UPF index greater than 50), but this is not enough to claim the finished product is anti-UV. The hat must also have a wide brim and flap which fully protects the face and the back of the neck. The Trek 500 hat meets these requirements so you can go hiking with complete peace of mind: you are perfectly protected!

Why is polyamide “more resistant”?

Polyamide offers excellent abrasion and tear resistance. Moreover, microorganisms and mould don’t trouble the synthetic fibre!

How do you measure a fabric's quick drying capacity?

The product is machine washed 3 times then line dried, then we immerse it in water and measure how long it takes to get back to its pre-wash weight.This hat scored an impressive 5 out of 5 stars, returning to its pre-washed weight in less than 80 minutes!

Product testing

The entire design team was able to test this hat during frequent excursions in the Mont Blanc mountain range, where Forclaz – Decathlon's trekking brand – has its offices.
