Product details

When the Okanagan sun is high on Knox Mountain or the Mission Creek trails, a light, breathable cap makes the climb a lot more comfortable. The Arc'teryx Bird Word Cap is a six-panel ball cap built for hikes and ascents in the heat. The body is a stretchy, breathable Circuit™ polyester with a water-repellent finish. A spacer mesh sweatband wicks moisture and dries quickly, and an adjustable buckle closure keeps the fit secure when you're moving.

WHO IS THIS FOR?

FAQ

Q1: How do I find the right size Arc'teryx Bird Word Cap?
The Bird Word Cap comes in two sizes, SM and LXL, and each has an adjustable buckle closure for fine-tuning the fit. Arc'teryx's hat sizing chart lists the head circumference range for each size. If you're between sizes, try both on in-store at either Kelowna location.

Q2: Is the Bird Word Cap good for trail running?
Yes. Arc'teryx rates it for trail running as well as hiking, climbing and bouldering. The stretch fabric breathes well, and the quick-drying sweatband handles sweat on hard efforts. The buckle closure holds the fit steady while you move. The cap is also machine washable on low and should be line dried.

Q3: What's the difference between the Bird Word Cap and the Bird Word Trucker Hat?
Both use the same breathable Circuit™ stretch polyester and spacer mesh sweatband. The Bird Word Cap is a six-panel ball cap made entirely of that fabric, with a buckle closure, and weighs 53 g. The Bird Word Trucker Hat has a mesh back for extra airflow and a snapback strap, and weighs 57 g. Care also differs: the cap is machine washable, while the trucker is surface clean only.
