Meticulously constructed with all finished seams, an adjustable cotton strap at the back, and a generous, stitched, and flexible brim, this cap is lightweight and packable, and will be a favorite for seasons to come.
This one is made of 9.5oz 60% cotton 40% linen denim.
Linen is an ideal year-round material because it has a hollow core, it makes it lightweight and wicking and keeps you cool with its high heat conductivity (higher even than wool and silk) even while you're working your hardest. It also allows more airflow and dries out quickly, resulting in a cooling effect (thanks !) and prevents bacterial growth so reduces stink. Linen is admittedly wrinkly, but the addition of cotton to this fabric makes it less so. But it's also a more durable fiber than cotton and it's more abrasion-resistant, so it brings that to the table too. Growing flax is very efficient; it can grown in poor soil conditions, requires less water than cotton, and the entirety of the plant is used in the production of the fiber.
