Description

Built with COOLmatic fabric and Repreve recycled performance fibre, the cap is engineered to dry quickly and perform in the heat. It offers reliable UPF +40 sun protection on the brim and front panel, making it ideal for long runs under strong sun. Despite its technical prowess, the cap is fully machine washable, making care and maintenance straightforward.

Its shorter, pliable SOFTcurved brim adds a flexible finish for easy packability, perfect for runners on the move. Reflective detailing ensures added visibility when running in low-light conditions, while the light 50g build and low crown deliver a snug, barely-there feel.

Whether you're pushing through tempo sessions or logging long miles, the FSTCap QA Elite delivers performance, protection, and comfort in a refined silhouette designed specifically for people who run.

How does it work

The FSTCap QA Elite combines technical materials with a streamlined fit to deliver maximum performance in a minimalist design. The COOLmatic fabric wicks moisture and dries rapidly to keep you cool and dry, while Repreve fibres add an eco-conscious edge. Its SOFTcurved brim is designed to provide shade and structure while remaining easily compressible, making it perfect for stashing mid-run or packing for travel.

The reflective accents increase visibility during early starts or evening runs, while UPF +40 protection shields high-exposure areas from harmful UV rays. Altogether, this cap is built for long distances and hard efforts, supporting runners with every mile.
