Outdoor Research Swift Cap
IDEAL RUNNING CAP FOR SLOW AND FAST ADVENTURES
The Swift Cap from Outdoor Research is your go-to companion for warm-weather adventures, crafted from a recycled nylon blend that’s not only highly breathable but also water-resistant, quick-drying, and offers UPF 40 sun protection—perfect for trail running, hiking, and more.
Designed with a shaped brim and nylon panels, it keeps the sun off your face and eyes, while its low-profile fit slips effortlessly under a helmet for alpine climbing and ski touring. Weighing just 2.5 ounces, it’s a lightweight dream for backpackers and thru-hikers who count every ounce. The dark fabric under the brim reduces glare, and mesh panels boost breathability to keep you cool. With a quick-release back buckle for easy adjustments and a moisture-wicking TransAction headband to keep sweat at bay, this cap delivers comfort every step of the way.
Whether you’re running trails, hiking, or enjoying any active pursuit in the summer heat, the Swift Cap is the ultimate blend of performance, protection, and lightweight comfort.
