Description
The FRACTEL L-Series ORBIT Legionnaire Hat is a running cap with an extended neck cape that shades your neck and ears. It suits trail runners, hikers and anyone out for hours under a hard summer sun.
The deep crown and soft 6cm brim pack down easily, a chin clip and bungee keep it on in the wind, and corner buttons let you close the cape in when the weather turns. In the ORBIT colourway the cape is finished in orange.
Why You'll Love It
- Neck and ears stay shaded on long exposed climbs.
- Button the cape closed against wind and drizzle.
- Chin clip holds it on along ridgelines and fast descents.
- Light PACE fabric breathes and dries fast.
- Squashes into a vest pocket when the cloud rolls in.

Less suited to: Hot road sessions where you want as much airflow over your head as possible. For that, look at the caps and visors in our headwear.
Why We Stock It
A cap leaves the back of the neck exposed, and the NZ summer sun is harsh there. The L-Series adds a proper cape without going all the way to a bucket hat, and the ponytail version means it works for more of our community.
