TOUGHMESH™ FABRIC — THE LIGHTEST HAT YOU’LL EVER OWN

We are committed to doing things the right way, not the easy way. That’s why we design and build our fabrics from the ground up and customize the fits to match. The standard approach—the one nearly everyone takes—is to slap a logo on some off-the-shelf hat that already exists. The world’s landfills are full of hats that are made like this. We reject that outright. That’s not how you build gear that lasts.

We invest the time, effort, and energy to do it our way. We take pride in every stitch, we obsess over every detail, so that it meets our standards.

Two things make running in the Florida sunshine even better. A rucksack to increase our VO2 Max and a featherweight ToughMesh hat to keep our core temp down and the sun’s cancer rays off our skin. ToughMesh is our premium Italian fabric that weighs just barely more than nothing and dries lightning fast - even after you jump your sweat drenched body in the pool after a long, hard ruck run. We are meant to live life at the edges, the A/C life is not for us. Wear hard, use often.

Features

  • Made from Italian ToughMesh™ to be breathable and lightweight.
  • Moisture-wicking and dries fast for the hottest days.
  • 35 UPF protection to keep the sun at bay.
  • Compact to be easily packed when you’re on the go.
  • Adjustable VELCRO® Garage: Features a single, thinner 3” Velcro strap for a streamlined fit without the bulk or flapping of excess Velcro. The garage is attached to an elastic tab, allowing for better adjustability, comfort, and a more secure fit.
  • Hat Sizing: 7 1/4 smallest size and adjustable up to 7 5/8. Same fit as the Performance Tac Hat (57.5cm).
  • The top button: we removed it because it serves no purpose and it hurts when you wear Peltors or other hearing protection.
  • Scars Lifetime Guarantee: The best on the market.

Reviews

"I bought this hat specifically for running, and so far it’s amazing. It’s stylish, lightweight and dries quickly. Seems to be the same high quality I’ve come to expect from all my GoRuck gear."

— Ms (5/5)

Awesome Hat

"Super light, fits perfectly and built to last."

— Bill M. (5/5)

One size does not fit all.

"It’s awesome and I would have loved it i think except the one size swallowed my head. On snap backs I am using all buttons (all holes are filled with all snaps) or minus one or two spots to make it bigger depending on cap style/if it shrinks, so smaller head, not total pin head though (I don’t think). It says large on the inside and so apparently there are sizes, or were available. But the Large was what came in the absence of being able to choose a size. So I gave it away. I love the tough mesh fabric. There seem to be two versions with one being soft and one being more papery feeling, but not uncomfortable. This was the super soft version. I have one tank top in this super soft version (bring the tank tops back!!!) and it’s both soft and indestructible. And this hat seems to be made out of that version. I gave it away because I got it for $18. I have 5 or 6 tough dry hats I wear often for crossfit, ocean, swimming, everything really. It says same size as those but it doesn’t seem to be, AND the material is so much stretchier that getting it to fit snug means it’s way too big. And the nylon on the tough dry hats draws up a bit."

"Outstanding fit, cool, protective hat. Lightweight and easy to pack for hiking or any occasion."

— Timothy (5/5)

Good quality, but ugly

"Material is nice, but fit and style and much different than a regular style hat. The bill is smaller as well. I don't personally like the look of it, but quality seems good."

— Travis S. (3/5)

"Outstanding hat, protective, cool and very easy to pack for hiking or whatever occasion."

— Timothy (5/5)

Best running hat

"Best running hat I ever bought"

— Ed R. (5/5)

Cool Hat

"Love it. Very cool hat. Only downside is that it stretches out and starts to look mushroomy after some use. Giving it a hand wash and a sun dry seems to return it to original shape though. Love the arrow shaped strap in back, very unique."

— James M. (4/5)

Great hat for running

"Great hat for running"

— Dylan B. (5/5)

As good as the performance tac hat, just lighter

"Very light and comfortable. Much lighter fabric than the performance tac hat but same fit. This is my new hot weather favorite."

— Dan L. (5/5)
