Customer Reviews Outdoor Research Swift Cap

I use it most anytime I'm outdoors, including bicycling when it's raining out. The no-button-top design makes for a good fit under the bike helmet. The fabrics are lightweight and strong, and the cap is well constructed.

Perfect hat. Swift cap meets all my needs for a fitness hat. The mesh lining separates this hat from every other fitness hat I have used. The wicking is amazing and the sun gets mostly absorbed by the outer layer. Very comfortable and fits great, I size-up to large with OR. Stiff brim that works in strong wind. The quick release clasp in back is convenient to clip on belt loop.

Good cap for aerobic sport. Super light. Nice fit.

My favorite hats in the world. Light, cool, great looking.

I love that this lightweight, breathable hat adjusts down small enough for my toddler-sized head.

It's Radtastic!!!! Grab n go to hit the trail or the road to put some miles under the bill!

Great for all outdoor activities - boating, jogging, golfing , biking, seasoning - love this hat!

perfect warm weather hat

I gave the OR Swift Cap to my Son as part of his birthday gift, he really enjoyed his gift since he had this same cap before but lost it and it was his favorite. He also bought me this same cap in gray a couple of years ago and I love mine as well. Fits and looks great plus light weight?

My husband wears his hats every day. The solid fabric protects his head where the hair is thinning, while the side vents keep him cool. This was the best present for him!

We love these swift cap. We have a few. We ordered some when there were on big big sale (like 70% off if I remember correctly). The caps back then (3 out of 3) were slightly twisted. We didn't really mind since it was for work but you could see that it was curved not evenly. The one we just order seems fine on this matter.

Incredibly comfortable hat! Great ventilation. The only problem is that clip sometimes comes loose.

Great breathable sun protection. The black and grey is great for trail and work meetings.

Love the cap. Brought this one in Maob. This is the last cap I'll ever need.

I'm picky when it comes to hats, and this is my new favorite. Looks good, super comfortable, great balance of sun/rain protection and breathability. Bought after I transitioned to sun hoodies, making my wide-brim sun hat awkward to use.

This is my go-to hat for hiking or biking around. Fit is perfect constantly and it keep sweat out of my eyes in hot weather. I am going to buy a couple more to keep handy.

Great cap. I bought two then bought two more (red/blue/grey/camo). It's a great travel cap. Packs down nicely and has adjustable strap so fit is assured. Fabric is light and mesh in the back so fits well and breathes nicely. Only cap I'd bother to wear in humid Florida.

I once read, "always wear a hat when running", and this is the one I go to for summer and warm runs. Great for keeping the sun out of my eyes, the rain off my face and the bugs away from my head. Washes easily and maintains it's shape. The bright colours ensure I'm seen on the trails or in the woods. The mesh obviously will not keep the top of your head dry during the rain.

Own multiple colors of this style hat. Wear on all our hikes and backpacking trips.

My 10+ year old OR hat blew off my head on a hike in Glacier National Park this summer, so it was time to find a new one and boy am I glad I "lost" my old one:) I ended up buying 3 of these, in case I have another one blow off my head in the future! It is light, yet, sturdy, and with the mesh siding provides great air flow to my head. I also appreciate how the clasp in the back is compact, yet functional - it does not loosen up or look messy.

This hat is my go to for any outdoor adventure. It's light and packs easily, it's very comfortable to wear - even under a helmet (no button on top to squish into your head), and it keeps me protected from the sun. My husband has the wide brim version, and loves it too.

Perfect cap. Extremely comfortable hat because of the mesh lining. I wear this hat when working out and my head breathes. I also wear it casualy because it looks good. I have worn the OR Sombriolet sun hat that has the same mesh lining for several years. I like the Swift Cap so much I bought 4, as a precation in case they stop making this hat.

I'm not one to wear hats, but know that I need something to block the sun while running. This hat is great - lightweight, stays in place and is comfy.

The perfect hat for a sweaty sunny afternoon climbing a mountain. Keeps the sun off but breathes and is so lightweight.

The mesh top breathes well while the medial fabric provides protection from the sun.
