FAQs
What is FlashDry-XD technology?

How do I clean The North Face Summer Run Cap?
You can machine wash it cold with like colors. Avoid bleach and do not iron or dry clean. Tumble dry on low or hang dry.
What does 'non-PFC DWR' mean?
It means the cap has a durable water-repellent finish that is free from perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs), making it a more environmentally conscious choice for water resistance.
Can I wear this cap under a helmet?
The cap is lightweight and may fit under some cycling or climbing helmets. However, fit can vary depending on the helmet design and head shape. It's recommended to test compatibility.
What is the purpose of the flippable brim?

Troubleshooting
Cap feels too tight or too loose
Adjust the elastic strap closure at the back of the cap. Ensure it is neither constricting nor loose enough to shift during activity.
Cap is not repelling water effectively
The non-PFC DWR finish is designed for light water repellency. For heavy rain, additional waterproof headwear may be necessary. The DWR treatment may also diminish over time with repeated washing; consider a DWR re-application spray if performance decreases significantly.
Moisture management seems poor
Ensure the FlashDry-XD material is facing outwards and is not obstructed. Clean any accumulated sweat or debris from the fabric, as this can impede moisture wicking. Wash the cap according to care instructions.
