ShaidOn Kappe & Bandana Add-On

Like most caps today, ours comes in a one-size-fits-most design. If you're anywhere between a woman 1.55 meters tall and a man close to 2 meters, it should fit you just fine!

Unless your name is Lance Armstrong, and you're just cruising around the city — not racing downhill — your cap and its add-ons will stay securely in place.

"Pro tip": Simply wear your ShaidOn cap and add-ons in those situations, in which you would normally use any other cap as well.

Bandana add-on: Bandanas have a timeless style - and so has your bandana add-on!

Brim add-on: we realized that when the visor add-on is retracted, even people you're speaking with barely notice it.

Let`s first clarify a couple of definitions:

SPF (Sun Protection Factor) is used exclusively for sunscreens. It measures protection against UVB rays (which cause sunburn), but not UVA rays (which penetrate deeper into the skin and contribute to long-term damage).

UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor), on the other hand, is used for clothing and measures both UVA and UVB protection.

Here’s how that applies to our product:

• Bandana add-on: It’s certified UPF 50, which means it blocks 98% of UV radiation.
• Cap: It’s made of 100% natural cotton, just like most standard caps. While it hasn’t been UPF lab-tested, thicker cotton fabrics can offer moderate sun protection.
• Brim add-on: Independent research (e.g., Cancer Institute NSW) shows that high-quality shade can reduce UV exposure by up to 75%. However, this can vary based on surrounding conditions — surfaces like sand, snow, or water can reflect UV rays and reduce the effectiveness of shade.

To wrap it up: Shade and physical barriers remain our most natural and consistent form of sun protection. In fact, even sunscreen manufacturers emphasize that sunscreen should complement, not replace, physical protection like clothing or shade.

In theory, yes—but keep in mind that our bandana is specifically designed with the exact size and stretch needed to securely and comfortably attach to your cap.

A standard bandana is usually too large for this purpose and won’t stay in place. However, if you just want to wear a regular bandana around your neck (the traditional way), using our magnetic clips still makes sense—you’ll avoid the hassle of tying knots!

Sure. Just put the two clips onto each other on the level of your forehead. It may not look as seamless as placing them on the magnetic brim of your ShaidOn cap.

... Also, your facial sides would get covered less.
