When you're pushing through swamps, creek bottoms, or dense Southern hardwoods, the Insect Shield Cape Cap is our go-to bug protection for trail runners, hikers, and hunters. Permethrin is bonded directly to the fabric — not sprayed on — so repellency holds through dozens of washes without reapplication. The cape-style brim covers the back of your neck, one of the hardest spots to protect any other way.
EPA-registered Insect Shield permethrin is chemically bonded to the fabric, not a spray-on treatment — repellency lasts through 70+ washes
Cape-style brim extends down the back of the neck, protecting one of the most exposed and hardest-to-cover spots on your body
Unisex fit in S/M and L/XL covers a wide range of head sizes; available in Pro Khaki
Built for high-pressure bug environments — tick and mosquito country, Southern hardwoods, swamp edges, and creek bottoms where DEET and sprays fall short
Low-profile and packable — stashes in a vest pocket or pack lid so you have it ready when the bugs get thick, without wearing it all day
