Kalahari Hat
By UVeto Australia

One hat. Multiple ways to wear it. The UVeto Kalahari Hat is designed for changing conditions, giving workers the ability to adjust their level of protection throughout the day. With extended neck and side panels, it provides full coverage when needed, or can be opened up for increased airflow and visibility.

Inspired by the classic legionnaire style, it combines a deep curved peak for face shading with wrap-around coverage for the neck, ears and sides of the face. Built from UPF50+ rated fabric and available in breathable micro-mesh or cotton options, it delivers reliable protection while remaining lightweight and comfortable for long shifts.

The releasable back panel and adjustable side sections allow workers to adapt coverage without changing gear, making it suitable for variable weather, task changes and different site conditions. This is what you issue when the environment changes… and you don’t want to issue multiple products.
