This super-packable camp cap features a soft brim and five-panel design. Scrunch it up into a ball and it'll bounce right back into shape, making it an unbeatable travel companion for the kinds of adventures where every gram counts. The top panels and bill are made in lightweight nylon crepe, while the sides and front feature contrasting nylon ripstop. The Reflex is a close-fitting, brilliantly simple design that adjusts via an elastic cinch cord at the back. A neat little touch is the reflective piping round the peak and at the back, upping your safety if you're hiking or biking in low-light conditions
Now here’s an origin story for you. Back in the early nineties, fishing boat skipper Barry Barr was fed up with wearing cheap trucker caps that got snatched off his head in storms, never to be seen again. He decided to make a super-durable cap that wouldn’t blow off whatever the weather, and he did it by stitching the webbing material from a Teva sandal all the way around the crown. Turned out his ‘Strapcap’ was a hit, and KAVU was born.
From humble beginnings flogging Strapcaps out of the boot of his car in Seattle, Barry’s since expanded to produce a whole array of durable outdoor kit with a laid-back, van-lifer vibe. The KAVU range takes in everything from sling bags to swim shorts, and while they’re serious about producing great gear that’s made to last, they’re also not afraid to have a laugh. Their prints are bold, playful, and in some cases so loud that they’ll take some considerable chutzpah to carry off – but that’s what makes them so much fun.
