Customer Reviews Arc'teryx Calidum 5 Panel Hat

Super light and comfortable! Perfect for everyday but also sports! My favourite hat by far.

The best fitting and quality hat I've ever purchased for outdoor activities. This hat really holds its shape, you can sit on it accidentally & it'll still look perfect. I'd really love to see a navy blue or a light grey color for this hat!

- Fabric/material is durable, and easy to wash (I put mine in the washing machine and laid flat to dry) - I have a smaller head, and it adjusts to fit perfectly - Can pack into a bag or duffle and won't loose it's shape

I bought it the day it got out. Used it for fishing, boat rides, hikes and running. The strap let's you tighten it enough so that even in big winds it won't come off. After a whole lot of sun exposure and a whole lot of rain, it's still looks great and keep it form. Got it stolen at a festival last week and I didn't hesitate to buy a new one the second I came back to the hotel. Definitely recommend

I love this hat. I got the forage colour and I have pretty much nothing I dislike about it. I usually don't like flat peak caps but tried this one on and was surprised how much I liked it. I've taken it in my suitcase on holiday to Europe without any issues, no squishing or damage, I've worn it on short and long day hikes, around town and at the beach. I sometimes find most unisex caps are tailored towards a male head especially with the length of the crown but haven't had that experience of it sitting awkwardly on my ears. It has cleaned up nicely after use so no weird stains (yet). My only small gripe: adjusting the fit. I usually adjust the strap so that it is tighter in certain conditions like driving in my car with windows down so it doesn't fly away but sometimes the adjustment doesn't stay tight and then I have to play around with the strap.

Top quality, it's very small and not for a big head

Bought this a month ago, fits light and perfect for the outdoors

I own 8-10 arc hats from the last 6 or 7 years. The biggest complaint I've had about most of them is that they stain from sweat. My favorite hat ever is my bird brim cap, but it got sweat stains on it the first time I got a heavy sweat in itI picked this one up a few months ago and it has had some seriously extreme hikes, bike rides, and runs. The thing wicks sweat like a champ (although it doesn't breathe great), packs very well, and still looks brand new. No squiggly white salt line!

Bought one color and loved the fit so much they I bought another color.

Purchased about a couple weeks ago. I've, run, climbed, and lived in this thing since. As mentioned in the product description, the brim is the same material they use for a climbing harness. Really really cool. Don't have to worry about goofing the brim up by packing it. Supernatural wicking ability too, haven't gotten a bead of sweat in my eyes since putting it on. Huge fan of the low profile too.

Like is title! Love this 5 panel and this is not commercial

I wanted this hat in my retail shop I work in, sadly they wouldn't order it. So I spend the loot and what a great purchase. Price point is exceptional if your looking for a first Arcteryx product to begin the collection.

I bought it for my boyfriend and it fits his large head perfectly. Good quality too

Perfect for a simple trail running hat. The adjustment feature is awesome.

This hat is marketed as a trail running hat but I don't know if I will use it as such. I think this will be more of a casual hat for me. The material is a bit heavy for my preference in a running hat. I may use this one on occasion for ski tours.

Great fit, great fabric, love it, Now I have two colors

I have always been a fan of the five panel hat. This one really hits it out the park. I love that the material is soft enough that I can shove it in my pack and it holds its form. 10/10 for me.

This hat is extremely comfortable and the material is excellent. The fit is great and it looks awesome too. Haven't tested it out outdoors hiking or getting wet, but it looks and feels great around town. The brim isn't super flat and firm, which is what I wanted, so you can get a slight bend in it. Overall very happy with this hat, so I bought 2 different colors.

I just ordered this a week ago wasn't sure if I would like it. After receiving it turns out I love it! Super comfortable but warning it has very little structure. It's very pliable that why I love it. Looks great and you can literally take it off and squash it into a pocket and later take it out and it looks great!

Brilliantly built lightweight hat, although yet to really test it out.

4.5/5. Almost perfect Running hat. Good Materials, deep crown (I have a big noggin, usually need L/XL hats), easy to clean, and looks good. Price is similar to other running company hats, but this one actually is good for people with larger heads. The issue is the action for the webbing closure is so sensitive that it easily loosens while you're wearing the hat. I want my size to be dialed in and not have to be fidgeted with 30-45 minutes on a hike or run.

Comfortable and ample room for someone whom struggles to find hats big enough for his large head and this is just great and accommodating to it.

Really nice fit for a low profile hat. The color is a compliment to most pieces worn with it. My only issue is the fabric it easily holds sweat does not wick. My cap has discoloration at all seams of the hat not just the band. Change the fabric to wick Arcteryx so we can keep a clean look like you intend when we wear your garments.

I bought this hat about 3 months ago. It has been my go to hat for the gym, hiking, grocery shopping, you name it. I used this hat every where and it had held up amazing! It dries super fast! And it does not leave any sweat stains! Its also super easy to clean. Planning to get one more hat in a different colorway!

Construction wise the hat has too much fabric at the curves so there's lots of distortions that make the surface look kind of bumpy. Functionally the hat is pretty much perfect. You really would have to work hard to mess this hat up, it doesn't crease easily and it's a little stain resistant, too. It's durable even though it's super light. A few times I've scuffed it against rock and it still looks new. I've gotten it pretty dirty and just shook it off and it looked fine. If you're ocd about color this matches the belt in bordeaux well and matches the leather fl red shoes well (think those were out last year or the year before) I hope they make more in this color a skyline shirt would be nice.
