The Naluka Essential Cap in chocolate is a classic hat designed for maximum sun protection. Made from recycled cotton, it features a brim to shield the face, 100% cotton lining and an adjsutable strap at the back for the perfect fit.

Made from cotton corduroy, your cap is designed to go from the water's edge to the café and back. A little care keeps the cord soft and looking good for longer.

– Spot clean first. For small marks, dab gently with a damp cloth and a little mild soap. Dab rather than rub, so the pile doesn't flatten.
– Hand wash cold when needed. Use cool water (max 30°C) and a gentle detergent. Swish it through, and lift any sweat or sunscreen marks with a soft brush, working in the direction of the cord. Don't twist or scrunch the brim.
– Rinse after salt water. After a day at the beach, rinse in fresh water so salt and sand don't dry into the cord.
– No machine washing, tumble drying, bleach or soaking. These can warp the brim, fade the colour and crush the pile.
– Reshape and air dry. Press it back into shape, then dry it over a rounded object like a bowl or a rolled towel, in the shade. Direct sun fades colour over time.
– Refresh the pile. Once dry, brush lightly with a soft brush in the direction of the cord to lift it back up.
– Don't iron. If it needs a refresh, hold a steamer a few centimetres away instead.
– Store it in shape. Keep it somewhere it won't be crushed, as pressure can leave marks in the cord.

Cotton corduroy softens and develops character with wear. That's part of its charm.
