When it rains or the spray will not let up, a hat that soaks through only makes things worse. Waterproof hats keep the head dry and warm, shield the eyes from driving rain and complete the protection given by the foul weather jacket and hood.
Waterproof models, from the bucket to the wide brim, combine a waterproof and breathable membrane with tough fabrics such as treated canvas, to resist wind and salt without getting heavy. A small accessory that makes a big difference on long passages in the rain.
Alongside the hats you will also find handy details such as cap leashes, which stop you losing your headwear at the first gust. Choose the size by fit and check the rear adjustment.
At Negrinautica you find hats and accessories by Sealskinz, Vaikobi and Helly Hansen. Free shipping over €200 and returns within 15 days.
