Lowe Alpine Classic Mountain Cap

Product Information

As a member of The Mountain People, you will also gain access to a whole wealth of exclusive rewards. Having had a Lowe Mountain Cap for over 25 years, it has lost its waterproofing so I thought it was finally time to get a new one! The ear flaps can be worn either up or down while the peaked brim can be secured to the front of the hat, making this a very adaptive hat for on the mountain.

So, whether you’re hiking a trail, heading up a mountain, or travelling to the other side of the world, their packs are built to help you make the most of life on the move. Triplepoint fabric uses ceramic particles to create a layer of microscopic pores that are impermeable to water particles yet let water vapour pass through. I was very sceptical when I saw how thin and light it is, but a day on the hills last week at 4C with biting winds turned me into a believer.

The Lowe Alpine Classic Mountain Cap is a fully waterproof and windproof hat providing excellent protection from adverse weather conditions on the hill or mountain. Felipe learns how to support Erik and be his eyes on tough multi-pitch routes throughout Wyoming, Co. I particularly like it because it is not too heavy and doesn't leave the head feeling too hot (so I guess it's not suitable for extremely cold conditions).

Bought one of these hats years ago when they first came out, much loved and brilliant weather protection, but, unfortunately, I have now lost it! The useful peak features a wire peak so you can shape it around glasses or goggles and the whole peak can be folded up out of the way and secured with a press stud. It's really only for winter, but is excellent when a beanie isn't enough and means you can go without a hood until it gets really horrible (though it works really well under a hood too. The large give a perfect snug fit for me, the XL I would say fits but is loose so it would come down to preference then. If you want to really make sure you don't lose the hat in severe conditions you can attach some accessory cord to the cord loops on the ear flaps to create a securee chin strap.

UOG TOP PICK - The Montane Duality Mountain Cap The Montane Duality Mountain Cap is a lightweight, weatherproof cap with a stiff peak, ear flaps, and cinch toggle. The Lowe Alpine Turbine hat is made from reliable Polartec Windbloc fabric and Lowe's own Aleutian fleece for complete windproof and breathable performance in cold conditions. The best mountain gear goes unnoticed, working hard to keep you comfortable so you can focus on what’s ahead. However, with Lowe now looking to become a packs-only outfit it looks like it might go, though the wired peak is different from most alternatives and from my point of view better: it'll stay how you put it and still folds away easily to stow in a pocket.

Added cords to the ear flaps to make it secure and tight under my chin for when its really cold and windy. This is my second such hat, the first one is still functional after 8 years but it was always a little tight for me in L size. Erik and Felipe’s much-anticipated trip to Torres del Paine has finally arrived, but now if they are.UOG TOP PICK - Lowe Alpine 's Mountain Cap - Superb design with a high performance fabric - We've singled out Lowe Alpine 's Mountain Cap as one of our top recommendations because it was the first of this design which has been copied by just about everyone - because it works. I put a piece of elastic through the ear flap loops that allow them to be rolled up out of the way in less severe conditions, the velcro adjuster holding them up. This heavy but nimble boot comes with a recommendation from Peter Macfarlane in his winter 2022/3 tests. The Aleutian fleece lining provides warmth from bitter temperatures and the scooped ear flaps with webbing attachment protect your ears from the wind.
