Customer Reviews Outdoor Research Sun Runner Cap

Multiple Rainier summits, Cascadia adventures and Salish excursions, this hat does it's job to block out intense UVA and UVB. Never had a burn where it was protecting me. I'm a return patron, a big fan and get them for my family and friends.

I chose this hat over one from another brand because it seems more adjustable. The first time I wore it kayaking, I got a complement and someone asked where I got it. It's super light weight and unlike to get bent out of shape when packed away. Being able to remove the side panels and wear it as a regular cap enhances its versatility. I'm very happy with the purchase

I was a little confused with how the sun cape attached, but I figured it out and the result is a great little sun hat. I am quite satisfied with it.

Hat is comfortable, breathable, and provides protection.from the sun. However, when in a snow environment, the reflection still requires sunscreen on your face and front of neck.

I'm satisfied with this hat, nice protection against the sun and the fabric is lightweight to run in the summer heat.

I've used this for years and it's the last word in alpine sun protection! With the detachable extension it's a bit fiddly to wear - the older model with the extension sewed on is easier to get on and off. I have 5 myself

Quality hat and keeps the sun off your head and neck

Great for hiking and going to use under my bike helmet for a trip this summer. The white is relatively cool in full sun and the material is perfect. Fits well and feels snug.

Love this cap so much, bought one for my whole crew!

I had a melanoma removed from my ear 5 years ago. Since then I've been experimenting with all sorts of sun protection hats, while also completing dozens of backpacking trips including the Tour du Mont Blanc. First, I like the idea of not having to slather sunscreen all over, then washing it all off etc. Though this hat will not be fashionable on the streets of Paris, it's a killer tool for protecting your head and neck from the sun. It's also somewhat flexible - you can remove the neck protection, you can cinch it down in the wind, and so on.

This product provides excellent coverage from the sun, is light and airy as well.

Perfect running hat. Second purchase, I own two colors.

Keep the sun off in this light weight cap with cape. Way better than I thought it would be. Neutral color and cord keep it from blowing in the wind

I wore this in the summer heat while land surveying swamps down in Florida. Very lightweight and very breathable.

Does the trick for keeping sun off your neck/ears.

This hat fits well and does its job. The removable part is a little bit confusing to take on and off, but this is a nice hat.

fit adjustable and great. Helps shield side of face

This hat will keep your head & neck ample shade and protection from the sun.

The California sun is no joke, and this hat is a lifesaver! I used to sweat through all my running caps, but this OR cap wicks away sweat. I was worried that the cap would feel too hot, but I've had no issues on my long runs. Will definitely be purchasing more colors.

This is my second of those. Love it

Lightweight and Dry's out fast! Great protection for a bald guy!

Used the hat yesterday 5/14/22 on the Cactus to clouds hike. Hat worked perfectly. This is my 3rd OR hat First cap, I like it. I thought it would retain heat due to using the removable neck gator. Works great for protecting neck from sun exposure.

I use this when I'm running or just out side when my skin issue flares up. It's a game changer as it keeps me from feeling like I'm being burned. When I'm out running in the woods, I need to hear what's going on around me and I'll pull the chin strap over my head and snug it down thus allowing for just enough coverage for my ears by pull the shroud back a bit. So far it seems to be made well and durable. Use it in Death Valley recently and it worked very well!
