Aquacaps

AquaCap worn at the beach at sunset

Two new caps · by Evolve

AquaCap

Built for the descent.

The AquaCap line just grew. The Nazaré for big waves. The Descent for going down. Same quick-dry build, three recycled bottles per cap.

AquaCap Descent · $45.99

The cap that goes down with you

Made for freedivers, spearos, and anyone who spends more time under the surface than on it.

AquaCap Descent front — Wedge Brim center fold visible
WEDGE BRIM — CENTER FOLD
QUICK-RELEASE CHIN STRAP
01 / BRIM
Wedge Brim

A fold down the middle of the brim. On the way down, water pressure folds it into a V — it slices the water instead of catching it. Back on top, it springs back to shape. No hands, no flipping.

02 / STRAP
Clip-in stow strip

An internal strip inside the crown. The chin strap clips into it and hides cleanly — the Descent wears like a regular 5-panel on land.

03 / DRY
Inside-out drying hook

The same strip doubles as a hanging hook. Flip the cap inside-out, hang it, walk away. Dries fast, brim keeps its shape.

04 / EARS
Mesh-lined ear covers

Sun and spray protection that still drains and lets you hear the water.

Materials

“Gear built for the ocean shouldn't be made from what already became its problem.”

Every AquaCap is made from 3 recycled plastic bottles — all three caps, all colorways, and every cap carries the mark to prove it. Recycled polyester costs more than new plastic — we use it here because it's the right call for gear that lives in the water.

FAQ

Questions

Does the Wedge Brim really fold by itself?

Yes. Water pressure folds it into a V on the way down; it springs back to shape when you surface. Nothing to flip, nothing to remember.

Which cap should I get?

Everyday water: AquaCap. Big waves or heavy conditions: Nazaré. Freediving, spearfishing, or a lot of time under the surface: Descent.

How do I dry the Descent?

Flip it inside-out and hang it on the internal strip. It dries fast and the brim keeps its shape.

How do I care for the caps?

Rinse in fresh water after each session. Air dry. Don't machine wash.
