Why We Love It
Omius has delivered the ultimate outdoor endurance hat, using cooling graphite to combat the effects of the brutal Australian sun. The cooling technology is powered by your own sweat, meaning you'll never run out of chill so long as you're working. You can also swap the graphite pieces across different hats and visors should you wish to mix things up.
Talk Nerdy To Me
When water or sweat evaporates on the surface of the skin, it absorbs heat and cools the body. The Omius technology amplifies this cooling effect from water being absorbed into the cooling graphite pieces, providing a larger evaporation surface. This vaporisation extracts heat from cooling components touching the skin, ensuring prolonged cooling through continuous water evaporation. While thermal receptors adapt to the temperature shift after around five minutes, the persistent cooling effect remains active by briefly exposing unadapted skin through cap re-adjustment.
Fast Facts
- Elastic band provides a flexible fit in each size
- 20-piece thermally conductive graphite in a hydrophilic coating
- As long as the cooling pieces remain wet, maintain direct skin contact and are exposed to unrestricted airflow, they'll remain efficient
- Includes: Cap, 20-piece cooling graphite, hard case for storing graphite pieces
