Lowe Alpine Classic Mountain Cap

Product Information

One of the things I'm thinking about is use for winter mountaineering etc, but I've heard they are no good under a helmet, but I can't see why? Erik and Felipe’s much-anticipated trip to Torres del Paine has finally arrived, but now if they are.

We're dedicated to supporting garment workers' rights to safe, dignified and properly paid employment. As Lowe Alpine say themselves the original Classic Mountain Cap has been “often-copied, never bettered”. Worn in the typical way, it offeres enough protection to close the gap between your forehead and sunglasses. Available in three sizes to fit most head sizes, with a velcro tab adjustment on the back means you can dial in the fit. I love it, and use it for walking, climbing and skiing in winter (for skiing I loop a cord through the wee loops on the ear flaps to stop it flying of at speed, also useful in a hoolie).

We regret to say that we are unable to change the address or postcode on a parcel once it has been despatched. The fully seam taped, waterproof and breathable shell will keep you protected from the elements whilst allowing vapour to escape keeping you comfortable. A winter sports hat from Rab's Lowe Alpine, made from a weather-resistant nylon plain weave with a micofleece lining, an elasticated/strapped rear and a mouldable peak. The legendary original Mountain Cap from Lowe Alpine has continued virtually unchanged for over twenty years. However, with Lowe now looking to become a packs-only outfit it looks like it might go, though the wired peak is different from most alternatives and from my point of view better: it'll stay how you put it and still folds away easily to stow in a pocket.

The Aleutian fleece lining provides warmth from bitter temperatures, and the scooped ear flaps with webbing attachment protect your ears from the wind. Our friendly and experienced team can advise you, help with sizing and find you the perfect kit for your next trip. You have a legal right to reject faulty goods within 30 days of receipt and get a refund, including postage back to us. Bought one to replace it and found the quality and weight of the material so poor by comparison to its predecessor. I did lose one to (very strong) wind so its replacement uses the loops to mount a chinstrap if it's going to be stupidly windy.

To resolve your query efficiently we use a claim form and case / ticket system, complete the form, add all the details required, and we'll get straight on to sorting it out.
