Product Overview
Ensuring the safety and comfort of younger individuals during outdoor activities is a priority for any school, club, or organisation. The Junior fold-up legionnaire's cap from Result Headwear offers a practical solution to sun exposure, combining a traditional cap design with extended coverage for the neck and ears. This medium-weight headwear is engineered to be portable and resilient, making it an essential addition to any outdoor uniform or kit list.
Key Features
- Sun-protection neck flap: This integrated panel provides vital shade to the back of the neck and the ears, reducing the risk of sun exposure during long periods spent outdoors.
- 3-section fold-up peak: The peak is cleverly designed to collapse into three sections, allowing the cap to be folded neatly into a pocket or bag without damaging its structure.
- Elasticated size adjuster: A flexible adjustment system with a shockcord ensures the cap remains secure and comfortable on various head sizes, accommodating growth throughout the year.
- Side eyelets: Two eyelets on each side promote airflow, helping to keep the wearer cool and prevent overheating in warm conditions.
Design & Performance
Constructed from 100% polyester, this cap is built to withstand the rigours of active play and regular outdoor use. The fabric choice ensures the garment is durable and holds its shape even after repeated folding and unfolding. The 3-section peak is a particularly well-engineered design element, addressing the common problem of peaked caps being permanently creased or damaged when stored in school bags. Its lightweight construction ensures it remains comfortable for all-day wear without causing fatigue for the wearer.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
At MyWorkwear, we understand that branding for junior groups requires the same attention to detail as adult workwear. This cap is designed with an open access point, making it an excellent candidate for both embroidery and transfer printing. For a refined and durable finish that withstands the daily activities of a child, embroidery is the preferred choice for school crests or club logos. If your design requires larger, more vibrant graphics that need to be seen from a distance, transfer printing is highly effective.
Our expert team, based at our Telford facility since 1976, manages the entire customisation process in-house. This allows us to maintain strict quality control and ensure your branding is applied with precision, ensuring a professional appearance for your school or organisation.
Use Cases
This legionnaire's cap is perfectly suited for primary school uniforms, summer holiday clubs, and youth sports teams. It is also an excellent choice for outdoor educational trips, scout groups, or family-oriented promotional events where sun safety is a primary concern.

Practical Advice
As this is a "one size" garment, the elasticated shockcord adjuster is essential for achieving a secure fit. For the most effective protection, ensure the neck flap is fully extended and the peak is positioned to shade the eyes without obstructing the wearer's vision. Its foldable nature makes it ideal for keeping in a backpack side pocket for quick access when the sun comes out.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and protective features of this cap, a sensible approach to maintenance is required. Maintaining the fabric's performance ensures the sun protection remains effective over time.
Avoid washing at high temperatures, as excessive heat can cause the polyester fibres to shrink and may distort the internal stiffeners within the 3-section peak. Similarly, the use of bleach should be avoided to prevent the degradation of the fabric's colour and the weakening of any custom embroidery threads.
Tumble drying is not recommended; allowing the cap to air dry naturally will ensure the peak remains functional and the elasticated adjuster retains its tension. If you must iron the garment, avoid direct contact with any printed areas or the peak itself, as high heat will damage the transfer or melt the internal peak components.
