Lightweight Coverage for Bug-Heavy Trails
Â
The Helios Bug Hat is built for sun-drenched, insect-heavy adventures, offering dependable protection for hikes, paddles, and backcountry travel.
Â
Updated for Spring ’26, this hat features a structured brim for reliable coverage and a detachable, adjustable chin cord for a secure fit in windy conditions. The integrated bug mesh now includes a refined stow system for easy, on-demand protection that tucks away when not in use. Made from breathable, quick-drying, bluesign® approved nylon, the fabric wicks moisture, resists light rain, and provides UPF 50+ sun protection to keep you cool and covered on the move.
