A highly functional, waterproof cap that balances weather resistance, comfort and weight.
Montane says:
Waterproof and lightweight, the Phase Lite Cap is constructed from seam-taped GORE-TEX ePE performance shell and features a wicking internal head band, stiffened peak and rear adjustability.
Our Verdict
The Montane Phase Lite Cap weighs just 36g and is built from GORE-TEX fabric that sheds rain while remaining breathable. The fit feels secure, thanks to a rear shock cord that keeps it stable even in strong winds. The stiffened peak is perforated to reduce weight, yet still gives adequate coverage. As someone who wears glasses, the waterproof peak is especially useful for keeping lenses clear in heavy rain. An internal wicking headband helps manage sweat during higher-intensity movement, adding comfort in warmer conditions. The combination of lightweight, weather protection and stability makes it a dependable choice for fast-paced activity in changeable weather.
