Mountain Active Cap

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I've been throwing the Mountain Active Cap in my pack on every trip this season and it's become the hat I reach for without thinking. The recycled nylon stays surprisingly cool when the effort level is high, and the crushable bill means I can stuff it into any corner of my bag without worrying about it coming out bent."

The right hat goes on in the morning and you forget it's there until the day is done, and the Mountain Active Cap from Marmot is exactly that kind of hat. Built from 100% pre-consumer recycled nylon and light enough to barely register in the hand, it's the cap that earns a permanent spot at the top of the pack without taking up any real space in it.

The soft, crushable bill stuffs down small and bounces back without complaint, the snapback closure holds things in place when the wind picks up on an exposed ridge, and the breathable fabric keeps things cool when the trail gets steep and the effort level follows. From spring ski tours to fall backpacking trips, it's the kind of gear that quietly does its job every single time.
