Fact Performance Hat

Whether you are a runner, a cyclist or a lightweight traveler, shaving valuable pounds from your pack can become something of an obsession.

You need to pack everything you will use, but you don’t want to carry unnecessary weight. While hats might not cross your mind as an obvious place to make gains, the makers of the Fact Performance Hat have other ideas.

The team spent years researching durable, lightweight fabrics and construction techniques before coming up with a hat that weighs just 38 grams. That’s equivalent to a 60-watt lightbulb. Plus it packs away to about the same size as a deck of cards.

The hat is also breathable, water repellent and uses cooling fabric technology, so it’s great for sports. It also offers UPF protection and features a reflective strap for improved safety at night.

There are four different colorways available, including one that features the Pantone color of the year 2018, ultra violet. Who said performance gear couldn’t be stylish?

Order the Fact Solana packable hat for $24, or get it as part of a two-pack with the snap-back Laguna model for $40. Check out the company Kickstarter for more details.
