Husqvarna Hat: Utforskare Trucker Cap

This Husqvarna hat, the Utforskare, is a trucker-style cap with Husqvarna branding, a structured front and a mesh back that breathes on warm days. It is a solid everyday Husqvarna chainsaw hat for ground work, shop time and off the job.

A Husqvarna trucker hat for everyday wear

Husqvarna hats are a fixture in saw shops and on tree crews. The Utforskare is a trucker cap with a structured front panel and a mesh back, so it holds its shape and breathes when you are working hard in the sun.

Utforskare means explorer in Swedish, a nod to the brand's roots. The cap is a simple way to show which saws you run.

Husqvarna hats come in a range of styles, from beanies to trucker caps. The trucker style is the summer favorite because the mesh back lets heat escape when you are working hard in the sun.

The front panel carries the Husqvarna logo, so it pairs with any other Husqvarna gear you wear on the job. The curved brim keeps sun off your face and out of your eyes when you look up at the canopy.

Where it fits on the job

A cap is ground gear. It keeps the sun out of your eyes when you are watching the climber, sharpening chains, running the chipper or driving between jobs. It is not head protection. When a climber is working overhead, the whole ground crew should be in helmets, as ANSI Z133 requires.

Many people keep a cap on until the helmet goes on, then clip it to their bag. Browse more hats and caps for cold-weather options.

On hot days, a breathable cap and plenty of water go a long way. Shade your eyes while running the chipper or watching the climber, and swap to your helmet as soon as anyone goes up.

Fit and care

The adjustable back fits most heads. Hand wash the cap with mild soap, rinse and let it air dry on a form so the front panel keeps its shape. Avoid the dryer and the dishwasher.

Sweat and sawdust will wear any cap down. A couple of spares in the truck mean you always have a dry one.

If your cap gets soaked in sweat daily, rinse it in clean water at the end of the week. That keeps salt and sawdust from building up in the sweatband and stiffening the fabric.

Picking a Husqvarna trucker cap

Look for a cap that fits snug enough not to blow off in wind or when you bend over, with an adjustable back so you can loosen it on hot days. A structured front holds its shape after being stuffed in a bag, and a curved brim keeps sun off your face.

A Husqvarna trucker hat makes an easy gift for anyone on a tree crew or anyone who runs a Husqvarna saw at home. It is also a simple way to keep a few spare caps in the truck for crew members who forget theirs.
