Who Wears It
This hat is built for the woman who is on the water for hours at a time, whether paddleboarding, fishing off a boat, or just spending the whole day at the beach in South Florida sun. The UPF 50+ rating and water-resistant build mean it can handle spray and sweat without falling apart the way a plain cotton cap would, and the stretch fit keeps it snug without an adjustable strap to fuss with.
How To Wear And Care For It
Pull the perma curved visor down to keep sun off your face and eyes, and rely on the stretch fit for a snug hold during active days on the water. Because it is water-resistant rather than waterproof, rinse it with fresh water after saltwater exposure and let it air dry rather than machine drying, which helps the polyester and elastane blend hold its shape and stretch over time.
About Salty Crew
Salty Crew began as a simple ode to traditional surf culture, honoring the hard-working people of the past who took risks on their own terms, not for fame but for self-satisfaction. The brand blends modern fabrics and technologies into gear built for people who keep coming back to the water.
