A vintage-style Climb Trees trucker cap for climbers off the rope.
The Arborwear Climb Trees cap is a vintage-style trucker cap with a mesh back and the Climb Trees message up front. It is a breathable, adjustable cap for climbers on breaks, at the shop or heading to the job.
Climb Trees says it plainly. The vintage styling gives it a broken-in look from the start, and the mesh back keeps air moving on hot days.
More hats are in hats and caps.
Most tree crews end up with a pile of caps, and the ones that get worn are the ones that fit well and dry fast. A cap that keeps the sun off your face while you check rope, sharpen chain or write up the next estimate earns its spot on the dash.
It also makes a good gift for a climber on the crew, or for the ground worker who wants to go aloft next.
A cap is not a helmet. Wear an approved helmet whenever you are aloft, in the work zone or running power equipment.
Rinse cool and air dry to keep the shape.
Sawdust, bar oil and two-stroke mix all end up on whatever you wear, so a cap that rinses clean is worth having. Avoid the dryer and the dashboard in full sun, both of which shrink and fade a cap faster than a season of work. Keep a clean one in the truck for client meetings and estimates.
If you want something to wear under a helmet on cold mornings, look for a thin beanie or helmet liner instead. It keeps you warm without lifting the helmet off its proper fit.

Yes, it has an adjustable back.
Brimmed caps generally interfere with helmet fit. Wear it off the climb.
