Buff Polar Thermal Hat

A comfortable hat made of Polartec Thermal Pro, a stylish and light weight fleece with a high thermal insulation. The perfect hat to protect you against the extreme cold, during winter sports in low/medium intensity like trekking, hiking, skiing.

Ideal for cold winter days, the Buff Polar Thermal Hat uses Polartec Thermal Pro an insulated fabrication that keeps you comfortable and warm when the mercury drops. Designed to enhance thermoregulation, the Polar Thermal Hat works to keep your body's core temperature stabilised at all times so you can stay warm on the coldest of days. Polartec provides the perfect balance between warmth and weight so the hat will keep you warm whilst staying as lightweight as possible. It also works to increase warmth retention by preventing body heat from escaping. Additionally, the hat has been constructed using a recycled polyester microfibre which ensures improved sustainability as it has been created using recycled plastic bottles. The recycled 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.

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.
