Singi Trekking Cap

Needs to be revised

This could be good with adjustments to its design. As others have noted, a more adjustable strap would give the hat a better fit. The hat is also surprising tall so some will find it hits their ears before “seating” all the way on the head. The hat also seems to show dirt and scuffs readily. I’ve barely worn it and it has marks on the brim and cap. Maybe this is because of wax finish. Unless you try this hat on in a store and love the fit, I would skip this hat. In my opinion it’s not worth the price.

Good hat, limited adjustment options

I would give it 5 stars but it does not really fit me right. The back strap only has 2 snaps for adjustment. On the first setting the hat is too large. On the second one it is too small. There needs to be at least one setting in between. I am actually going to remove the snaps completely and install a Velcro strap that I can adjust just right. I wish I did not have to alter a brand new hat and that it would have come with better adjustment options.

Almost perfect

Love the way it looks and feels (well made) only gripe is there being two sizing settings . In a future release I believe many customers would benefit with a strap as oppose to a clasp (more adjustability in sizing)

Great looking hat!

Love this little cap. Sizing is tricky but once I returned the medium and got the small it fits perfect. Love the neutral color. Please offer the same in bright colors as well. Perfect for bad hair days and sunny days, and travel…….

Great looking cap

Took a while to make it's way to me but worth it. Nice cap but could do with an adjustable clasp as just two settings. Expensive too. Think it can be made water resistant with wax.

Great Hat

Great hat - that is very well made and good looking. Be warned though - there are only 2 settings for adjustment - so if you fall between these then be prepared for a tight/loose fit. The next iteration definitely needs a more refined way of adjusting the fit.

I really like this cap - I bought two already, in olive and in dark blue, and have just ordered a third, in black. It is finely made. The shape covers my head well, especially in the back, and it holds its shape, including the visor. Fading has been minimal. My only concern is the back adjustment. For a more formal, fitted look I have avoided the baseball-type cap with the semi-circular cut-out and the adjustment strap. This cap has two snaps 28mm apart, and no cut-out. If the tighter one is chosen, the back of the cap bunches up terribly. Better to measure your head carefully and order the correct size, as you will not like tightening it up. I too bristled when I noticed the Chinese origin of this Swedish cap with the exotic name. It has long been customary to fabricate in a country with the lowest labor costs, which evolves over the years. I do wish that all the internet sellers would show the country of origin, and not simply say "imported" - we are not standing in a store with the item in hand. Lastly, look closely at the widely varying number of millimeters between the sizes in that pop-up. Backcountry could not explain this puzzle, and it remains so a year later. I had to ask the representative to measure the inside circumference of the band to avoid a mistake.

Love the lightness of this cap. Adds practically no weight when packing. Gives you all the protection you need from sun. Short brim gives unobstructed view when scrambling up rocks in the Shenandoah?s.
