The Switchback Hat is the cap you wear on river trips and spring ski tours. It’s lightweight and breathable, floats in the water, and has a laid-back, I’m just here for a good time kind of vibe.
You could buy a tall knit cap at the gas station that rolls up just so. But it’ll fall apart by the end of the winter. Or you could invest in the well-made Longshoreman and you’ll have it forever and ever.
