The perfect Hiker Trash essential, the Foldable Trail Hat features an embroidered Zpacks crest sewn onto a relaxed unstructured crown with a soft flexible visor. The visor floats and is great for blocking the sun or propping up rain hoods and can be folded/flattened and stuffed in your pack when not in use.

Constructed from ultralight quick drying nylon and featuring a breathable wide-set nylon mesh and an adjustable nylon woven strap in the back, the Foldable Trail hat is a great choice for warm days on trail or kayaking trips on the river.

Clean and classic, our Trail Trucker Hat looks right at home on trail, in town, or spending a lazy day on the lake.  Great for blocking the sun or propping up rain hoods, the Trail Trucker's standard snap-back adjustment will fit just about any head size.

Made with nylon fabric which is lighter weight and faster drying relative to typical cotton trucker hats. It also floats!

The Zpacks Octa® Fleece hat delivers impressive warmth without the bulk, ensuring you stay cozy whether you're tackling a windy trail or your morning commute.

Ultralight by design and featuring a double layer of fleece around the ears, this hat locks in heat where it matters most while remaining breathable and easy to pack. Warmth without compromise—no matter where the day takes you.

A few weeks earlier, I would have just lived with a cold head. But not now! For almost no weight and a tiny amount of space in my pack, I put up a strong defense against hypothermia. Another great product!

This is without doubt the warmest beanie l have ever had on my head in still air. Kept me toasty in sub zero. I’ve recommended it and Zpacks to several friends.

When winter arrives, cold nights at camp are no match for our ultralight Brushtail Possum Beanie. Made from a combination of New Zealand's brushtail possum fur, and New Zealand Merino lamb's wool, these beanies will keep your head warm around the campfire and those frigid days on trail.

For extra warmth pair these socks with our Brushtail Possum Socks and Brushtail Possum Gloves!

When the morning air has more bite than your trail mix, the Zpacks Octa® Neck Gaiter has your back (and your neck, face, and occasionally your hair). This ultralight wonder isn’t just a gaiter, it’s a shape-shifting sidekick ready to tackle whatever the trail throws at you.

Need warmth? Done. Sunburn defense? Check. Bad hair day camouflage? Absolutely. Think of it as a multi-tool for your head except way softer, lighter, and less likely to pinch your fingers.

This is an excellent product. It keeps your neck cool and protected from the sun too. Very well made, and a great idea!

Whether you are exploring a desert, hiking through dense woods, or traveling somewhere cold, the Zpacks Neck Gaiter is a pack list essential. This multi-functional head wear can be utilized in an endless amount of ways to protect your face and neck from the elements! The neck gaiter is a continuously woven tube that can keep you warm on a chilly day, catch sweat, or protect your face and neck from sunburn.

A version is also available in Octa Fleece for colder weather!

Couldn’t be happier with this down hood. Perfect for quilt users, doesn’t slide around or off your head at night like a beanie can on straight, slick hair. Much better than the hood on a sleeping bag, which can slide into your face when you turn, and of course can’t be detached for use as a separate warm hood. The ultra light weight is remarkable. It’s very warm and has a cozy fit and feel.

Get ready for sweet dreams on cold nights when bundled up with the Zpacks Down Hood. A perfect companion to your ultralight down quilt, stay cozy and snug tucked away from the cold.

A down hood can move with your head as you turn side to side in your quilt, unlike an integrated mummy bag hood. You can also wear it around camp, or tuck it inside your camp pillow when you don't need it.

Zpacks Down Hoods are reversible, face whichever color you prefer outward.
