【Heat Stroke Prevention】Suppresses the rise of deep body temperature! The secret of the hat that cuts over 76% of near-infrared rays.

The author often works under the blazing sun. Although it's impossible to stay completely cool, I've always felt the need to minimize the sun's heat as much as possible. With the "CORE SHIELD® Bucket Hat" that incorporates near-infrared protection, work efficiency in the peak summer seems likely to improve significantly.

Near-infrared measures are effective for heat measures

The CORE SHIELD® Bucket Hat is a heat protection hat made with special fiber Trubeaute®, which cuts over 76% of near-infrared rays. It is available in navy and black, in two sizes with head circumferences of 58cm and 60cm. The size range is reassuring even for the author with a larger head.

Near-infrared rays, which are said to account for about 42% of sunlight, reach deep into the skin and contribute to rising body temperature. This bucket hat is designed to protect against the heat received from the head just by wearing it. It is effective not only for outdoor leisure, but also for long hours spent outside on days like golfing or farming.

The full brim covers the ears and neck from sunlight effectively.

Unlike standard caps that easily expose ears and the neck to sunlight, this bucket hat features a full surround brim that wraps around the head, covering not just the front but also the sides and back.

In blazing sunshine, the direction of light changes every time you turn. However, with a full brim, you can relax without worrying too much about the direction of sunlight, whether you're golfing while walking or moving around for setup and takedown during camping. In addition to UPF50+ UV protection, it also has water-repellent treatment that repels sudden light rain or splashes.

Mesh and four vents release heat inside the hat

Even if the sunlight is blocked, it can become uncomfortable to wear a hat for long periods if heat and moisture get trapped inside. The interior is constructed with highly breathable mesh from the crown to the sides. Additionally, there are four vents in total, with two on each side. This design allows heat and moisture to escape easily, making it possible to wear it continuously even in sweaty outdoor conditions.

The fabric also features moisture-wicking, quick-drying, and contact-cooling functions, which is a great point as it doesn't just stop at blocking sunlight. By using the removable chin strap, the hat is less likely to be blown away in windy golf courses or fields, and when worn in the city, it can be removed for a clean and stylish look.

No matter how many times you wash it, the near-infrared cut function continues semi-permanently

Trubeaute® incorporates near-infrared absorbing microparticles CWO® into the fibers. Unlike fabrics that are only treated on the surface, it is characterized by maintaining the near-infrared cut function semi-permanently, even after sweating and repeated washing. Summer hats easily absorb sweat, so it is reassuring to know that they can be washed without hesitation while still maintaining their functionality for long-term use.

This bucket hat is made in Japan, sewn in Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture, and can be used repeatedly every year during the hot season. Instead of reducing time spent outdoors, we prepare to suppress the heat we receive and enjoy the summer. By preparing in this way, it seems possible to positively tackle plans for hot days, from leisure on holidays to daily outdoor tasks.
