Product Overview
The Beechfield BC187 Outdoor 6-panel cap is a high-specification piece of headwear engineered for those who work in demanding outdoor environments. Constructed from 100% ripstop nylon, this cap provides a durable barrier against the elements while remaining exceptionally lightweight. The inclusion of a waterproof and breathable fabric ensures that the wearer remains dry during rainfall without the discomfort of heat build-up, making it a versatile choice for the unpredictable British weather.
Key Features
- 100% Ripstop Nylon Fabric: The reinforced weave of the ripstop nylon is designed to resist tearing and abrasion, ensuring the cap maintains its structural integrity over time.
- Waterproof and Breathable Technology: This fabric provides essential protection from rain while allowing moisture vapour to escape, keeping the wearer comfortable during physical exertion.
- Coolmax Fabric Sweatband: The 100% polyester Coolmax sweatband efficiently wicks moisture away from the forehead, preventing perspiration from interfering with your work.
- TearAway Label: Specifically designed for ease of rebranding, the tear-out label allows for a clean, professional finish without the irritation of a standard internal tag.
- Adjustable Webbing and Clip Closure: This secure fastening system ensures a precise fit for all head sizes and remains stable even in windy conditions.
Design & Performance
The 6-panel construction offers a classic, structured fit that aligns with professional workwear standards. The pre-curved peak is precisely angled to provide immediate protection from glare and rain, while the lightweight nature of the fabric ensures the cap can be worn for entire shifts without fatigue. The performance of this cap is rooted in its technical materials; the ripstop fabric is a preferred choice for outdoor gear due to its strength-to-weight ratio, providing a robust solution that doesn't feel heavy or restrictive.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This cap serves as an excellent platform for corporate branding. We recommend embroidery for those seeking a superior professional appearance; it is particularly effective on the structured front panels for displaying company logos with a tactile, high-quality finish. Alternatively, print is an ideal choice for larger, more vibrant designs that need to stand out.
All customisation is handled at our facility in Telford. Our expert team has been producing bespoke workwear since 1976, ensuring that your branding is applied with the technical expertise required to match the garment's performance.

Its breathable properties also make it highly suitable for sports and leisure organisations where physical activity and professional branding must go hand-in-hand.

Practical Advice
As this is a one-size-to-fit item, the adjustable webbing and clip closure are essential for achieving a secure fit. If you are working in high-wind environments, we recommend tightening the clip closure slightly more than usual to ensure the cap remains seated. For those layering with high-visibility gear or waterproof jackets, the low-profile design ensures it fits comfortably under most protective hoods.
Caring for your product
To preserve the technical properties and waterproof nature of the ripstop nylon, this cap should be sponge-cleaned only. Machine washing or submerging the product can compromise the internal structure of the pre-curved peak and degrade the breathable membrane.
Using a damp cloth with mild soap is sufficient for removing surface dirt. Avoid the use of bleach or harsh chemical cleaners, as these will damage the fabric integrity and could potentially fade your custom print or embroidery. Always allow the cap to air dry naturally; using a tumble dryer or placing it on a radiator may cause the fabric to shrink or warp.
