Ergodyne 16859 Zippered Trapper Hat Black L/xl

Product Description

The ERGODYNE 16859 is a zippered trapper hat designed for workers and tradespeople exposed to extreme cold. Built from water-resistant nylon, it shields against wind, moisture, and low temperatures while maintaining a low-profile fit under or alongside head protection. A zippered compartment on the crown opens to an interior pocket sized to accept a removable bump cap insert, making this hat compatible with the 8945 Universal Bump Cap for added head protection against minor impacts, scrapes, and bruises. Ear flaps adjust up or down to cover ears fully when conditions demand it.

This hat suits outdoor workers in cold climates who need thermal protection without the bulk of a hard hat. Mechanics, airport ground crews, warehouse workers, and similar tradespeople operating in freezing or near-freezing environments are the primary users. It functions as a standalone winter hat or as a base layer for bump cap integration, giving workers flexibility depending on the job site hazard level. The classic aviator-style design fits a wide range of work environments where standard cold-weather gear is appropriate.

Installation Notes

No tools are required to fit or adjust this hat. When using the bump cap insert, ensure the insert is fully seated inside the zippered compartment before use. Inspect ear flap closures and the zipper for proper function before each shift in extreme cold. Follow your employer's PPE and head-protection policies to confirm this hat meets the hazard level at your specific worksite.
