Performance features for cold-weather activities

SwimZip winter hats feature water and wind-repellent outer shells that keep you dry and comfortable during snow and freezing winds. The soft fleece lining provides warmth without bulk.

The convertible design lets you wear the ear flaps down for maximum warmth and coverage, or buckle them up when temperatures rise. The adjustable chin strap keeps your hat secure during windy conditions and holds the ear flaps in place.

Customizable fit for all-day comfort

The adjustable toggle strap at the crown creates a personalized fit up to 23.5 inches in circumference. This universal sizing accommodates different head shapes and hair volumes. And the lightweight construction prevents pressure headaches during extended wear.

🧢 Coordinate with our adjustable UPF baseball hats for sun protection during warmer months.

Color options for every style

Our adult winter sun hat collection offers six colorways that suit different preferences and wardrobes.

Classic neutrals

White reflects maximum heat during sunny winter days and maintains visibility in snowy conditions. Dark grey conceals dirt and wear from frequent outdoor use. Navy provides a timeless option that coordinates with any winter jacket.

Bold statement colors

Aqua adds a pop of personality to neutral winter wardrobes. Red creates high visibility during outdoor activities. Yellow brightens grey winter days and stands out during emergencies.

Care and maintenance

Machine-wash on a gentle cycle with cool water alongside similar outdoor gear. The fabric releases dirt and salt stains without aggressive treatment. Don't use fabric softeners that compromise water-repellent capabilities.

Drying and storage

Air drying provides the best results for water-resistant coating maintenance. Store the hat in a cool, dry place between uses. The resilient construction recovers from compression during packing or storage.

The sun protective hat for winter adventures

Our adult winter sun protective hats combine warmth and weather resistance with serious UV blocking. Add adult sun hats for warm-weather coverage, or include sun-protective sunglasses to shield your eyes from winter glare.

Adult winter sun protective hats FAQ

What activities are these winter hats best for?

These convertible winter hats are a good option for skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, winter hiking, shoveling, outdoor work, commuting, and daily cold-weather wear. The adjustable ear flaps adapt to different activity levels and temperature changes.

Read about why you should wear sun protection during winter.

Is this hat truly waterproof?

The outer shell is water and wind-repellent, which means precipitation and moisture bead off the surface. 

Can I wear these hats under a ski helmet?

These winter hats are designed as standalone headwear and may be too bulky to fit comfortably under most ski helmets. For helmet compatibility, consider our adjustable UPF baseball hats, which provide sun protection with a lower profile that works under helmets.

Do these hats work for people with sensitive skin?

The UPF 50+ fabric provides physical sun blocking without chemical treatments that can trigger sensitivities. The soft fleece lining is gentle against skin and shouldn’t cause irritation during extended wear, and the tagless design eliminates scratchy labels, so people with sensitive skin should have no problems with these hats unless they are sensitive to fleece.
