On our heads since 1986

Patagonia. A person on the bank of a river uses their mesh hat as a spaghetti strainer.

In 1986, our design team set out to create a better baseball cap: one that would wick sweat, dry fast, float when dunked and easily crush up into a pocket.

Duckbill hats have been on our heads ever since, for long runs, ski tours, fishing and river trips. They’ve mopped up sweat, held backcountry blueberries and doubled as spaghetti strainers and aid station ice bags.

Lucky Duckbill. “I have run thousands of miles in my lucky Duckbill. It’s been with me at races and on expeditions all over the earth—in rain, shine, sleet and heat.” Luke Nelson, Trail Running Ambassador

STEVEN G GNAM (Bottom) From Marketa Daley’s trail journal: “This is simple living, nothing fancy needed, just a place to sleep and all else seems to fall into place somehow. There’s nothing to control or judge, and honestly, it feels that out here is the only place we can truly be ourselves: unhinged, real and simply human.” MARKETA DALEY
