DESCRIPTION
Designed by Patagonia for cold-weather trail running, their Winter Duckbill Cap has a water-resistant top, highly breathable fleece on the sides and flip-down earflaps to trap in the warmth. It features a crushable brim for packable, on-demand warmth when you need it most. Made in a Fair Trade Certified™ factory.
A combination of a highly breathable crown and fleece materials fight chilly temps while managing moisture during high-output winter activities. The adjustable closure strap allows for a finely tuned fit and a ponytail pass-through for those with longer hair. The flip-down fleece earflaps keep your ears toasty when it gets really cold, or they can be flipped out of the way when it warms up.
