UPF 50 Sun Protection: Our 7cm brim and UPF 50 fabric shield you from harmful UV rays, ensuring you stay cool and protected under the sun.

Mesh Earmuffs: Minimize water and wind exposure, helping prevent surfer's ear without compromising on hearing.

Durable Construction: Built with high-quality materials and rust-free chrome metal pieces to withstand repeated sea exposure. Follow our Hat Guide to maintain your hat's condition.

To ensure your surf hat remains in prime condition, follow these simple care steps:

1. Rinse After Use: Wash away saltwater and sand with fresh water after each surf session.
2. Dry in Shade: Avoid direct sunlight; let it dry in a shaded area to preserve color and material integrity.
3. Loosen Strap: Relieve tension by loosening the adjustable strap after use.
4. Hand Wash Periodically: Every few months, gently hand wash with mild detergent in lukewarm water to remove accumulated residues. Carefully detach any removable parts before washing. Rinse thoroughly and air dry in the shade.

CE, EN812:2012 & UPF 50 certificates

Our surf hats are tested and meet the rigorous CE standards as well as adhere to the EN812:2012 safety guidelines for bump caps, ensuring good head protection for our customers. Additionally, they provide UPF 50 sun protection, guarding against harmful UV rays during long sessions in the sun.

Safety Reminder: Always surf within your abilities and be aware of your surroundings. Our surf hats cannot be compared with professional grade helmets and do not offer enough protection for high impact collisions. Our protective insert is made for low impact accidents for the day-to-day surf, securing you from small head bumps. Please read the product disclaimer inside the hat before use. Feel free to contact us anytime if questions arise.
