FAQs

What sun protection do they give?

Our signature swimwear fabric, which is used for our legionnaires hats, has a UPF rating of 50+, meaning less than one in 50 of UVA and UVB rays penetrate through, so total sun protection. 

Are they washable?

Yes, fully washable as with other sportswear and hang to dry. The peak of the cap of this hat may need to be reshaped by hand when it is drying: just bend it the right way if needed. Can be worn in and out of the water. If wearing underwater, a top tip is to wear goggles over the top to secure the hat in place. 

What is the function of the flap at the back?

The flap of fabric that covers the back of the neck protects the back of the neck from sun exposure: perfect for when children are building sand castles. The peak at the front of the cap casts a shadow to cover the face depending on the angle of the sun. The rest of the hat protects the scalp.
