Pioneer Cowl Cap

The Pioneer Cowl Cap has been made using advanced Polyamide and Elastane for long lasting durability, comfort and freedom of movement. These modern fibres have been woven to provide UPF 40+ Sun Protection, keeping you feeling cool and comfortable even in hot and humid conditions while protecting you against harmful UV rays. Combined with Insect Shield® technology for long-lasting, effective and convenient insect protection.

Featuring a fold away cowl that extends over the rear of the neck for extra protection from the sun and insects. Whilst shade has been provided with a large peak that covers the face for minimal sun exposure.

UPF 40+ Sun Protection Note

All of our garments are tested for their Ultraviolet Protection Factor, and those that achieve a rating of UPF 40+ are noted as protection against UV. Garments awarded a 40+ UPF block 97.5% of UV radiation rating, so for every 40 units of radiation, 39 are blocked, and 1 contact the skin. 

Insect Shield® Note

Insect Shield® technology converts clothing into convenient, comfortable and effective protection against biting insects. Each Insect Shield® labelled garment is treated with Permethrin, an invisible an odourless ingredient which protects against insects such as mosquitoes, ticks, ants, flies, chiggers and midges. The treatment is so tightly bonded to the fabric fibres that it retains effectiveness through the expected life of the product – well beyond the limits of most fabric finishes.
