Buff Single Layer Hat

A light hat to be used in any time of the year, for many outdoor activities like boulder, climbing, trekking, running, or biking and the Hat BUFF® will protect you from cold for high intensity activities.

Devleoped to be lightweight and comfortable, the Buff Single Layer Hat has been constructed using a 100% Polyester microfibre. The microfibre fabrication sits comfortably against the skin for all-day wear so you can go further for longer. The polyester microfibre is also highly moisture-wicking meaning it works to wick excess sweat and moisture away from the skin where it can be easily evaporated. The moisture-wicking fabric creates a perfect microclimate for your skin to thrive in so you can remain cool, dry and comfortable at all times. As well as this, the two-layers of microfibre creates air cushion and works to maintain head temperature so you'll always remain comfortable and warm. The hat has also been treated with polygiene which prevents the build-up of bacteria to keep the hat looking and smelling fresher for longer.

About Buff

Buff, the original multifunctional headwear. Once upon a time there was a keen off-road trials motorcyclist from Spain, who realised there was a need for a multifunctional garment that could be worn on and around his head while out riding in any and all conditions. Having worked in the textile industry for over 25 years manufacturing knitted collars and cuffs for the most popular football shirt brands in Europe, Juan Rojas set about creating a functional garment that could be worn in all manner of ways, replacing the need for separate items of head and neck wear.

Experimenting with different designs and processes, Juan eventually found a high performance microfibre that was breathable, moisture wicking and wind resistant. Juan then set about designing a proprietary knitting process that could manufacture his product in such a way as to ensure enduring comfort and durability. This manufacturing process, which takes place on a specially developed tubular loom, achieves an unique seamless construction resulting in a particularly comfortable garment that is extremely durable. The use of a sublimation printing process to transfer designs onto the product also ensures that the material retains its soft feel without the colours fading when either exposed to the elements or during cleaning. Juan called his product Buff as a derivation of the Spanish word 'bufanda' meaning scarf.

Then, in 1998, Buff entered a team into the Eco-Challenge adventure race and by the end of the event most of the participants had either requested or were wearing an Original Buff and were totally "Buffed up." Since then, Buff headwear has become a standard accessory for all adventure racers and athletes.

Buff headwear and has since become popular with millions of outdoor enthusiasts who benefit from its versatility: the garment has multiple uses and can be worn as a scarf, bandanna, headband, hat, facemask or wristband. Put simply: Buff headwear is uniquely versatile, designed to achieve a high level of comfort and protection from the elements.
