Amazing amount of features crammed into an ultralight 46gram cap - fully waterproof, fully stuffable, very desirable.
Sunday Afternoons says:
A classic ball cap that’s ready for the unexpected, the Repel Storm Cap is 100% waterproof, seam-sealed, and ready when a storm brews on the way home from work. Made with a PFA-free water repellent finish. Reverse Split Brim™ helps it pack small and flat. UPF 50+ sun rating keeps you protected when the sun makes an appearance.
Our Verdict
There's a lot to Sunday Afternoons's Repel Storm Cap, especially given that it only weighs 46grams. It has a moderately sized peak with a fold in the underside so the whole cap can be packed up small and stuffed into a rucksack pocket. The peak has foam inside which, while not as stiff as a traditional baseball cap it is stiff enough to keep its shape but soft enough to be crushed when the hat gets stuffed somewhere.
Inside there's an absorbent lining, which is great, and the whole cap is waterproof.There are also two vents at the back, not sure how efective they woill be but they must have some impact.
The Medium/Large size will fit most adults and I measured the inside brim at 60cm maximum, the size can be reduced using the cordlock at the back.
Oh, forgot to mention the reflective trim. Its an awesome cap.
