Outdoor Research Drifter Cap

Great Rain Cap
The Drifter Cap worked great by itself and under a hood. It's light weight, waterproof and has a sturdy bill. It also stays on your head in high winds.

I love this hat.The gortex is wonderful.
Hat is very light,the bill is great to keep out the sun and the gortex is great for allmost any weather.I am going to get another one for my friend.I use this hat for long hikes and it keeps me warm and comfortable.I would highly recomend this hat for the avid hiker or walker.The draw string for sizing is great because I keep my hair short in the summer and let it grow out in the winter,fit is perfect.

Exactly the cap I needed
Used it in a horendous fishing trip. In one afternoon it bucketed rain, pelted hail, and drizzled the rest of the time. And the drifter cap kept me dry and comfortable. One downside, like some other reviews, I found the sizing a little large. While it has a good adjustable headband, the cut of the cap leaves it looking like a mushroom unless you pull it right down. Still, great cap for fishing, back-country or any activity where bad weather can unexpectedly hit.

Awesome
I now have 2 of these bad boys. I purchased the first one even though I hate ball caps, to help keep the hood up on my Arcteryx Alpha jacket in the rain. So every thing past that task was gravy. As it turns out this thing fits great, looks great, and repels the water great. This thing is awesome and my new "go to" hat. It has only been through a few rain storms so far, so it is hard to gauge durability, but based on goretex's reputation and OR's reputation, I expect to be wearing this thing for a while. I am even gonna buy a third one for my dad because he saw mine and wanted one for the rain!

Great Hat
Like all OR products this hat is made well. The fits is good (I like the string adjustment on the back of the hat great for when the wind kicks up) very light weight, it breaths like it should being made with Gore-Tex. This is a Great Hat.
