Buff Run Cap

Ideal for anyone who is looking for efficient sun protection when running in good weather. The Run Cap offers all the basic features with a variety of styles to choose from. Comfortable fit for everyday use.

The Run Cap by Buff was created using Bi-stretch fabric which keeps the garment feeling light, compact and ensures the best fit. The outer fabric is lined with UPF 50 allowing you to stay protected from the suns UV radiation. The inner sweatband works to wick sweat away; high wicking properties transport sweat to the outer layers of the garment allowing for easy evaporation of excess moisture. Side panels made out of breathable fabric keep you feeling cool by allowing warm air to move out of the garment and cool air to circle in. A rear fastening tape allows for a more personal fit as it allows you to adjust the size of the garment to fit you perfectly. Finally, the cap is reflective allowing you to be seen on low visibility days.

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.
