MISSION Cooling Visors are traditional visors constructed with high-tech materials that do a lot more than just keep the sun out of your eyes. Like all other MISSION products, our sun visors are light, durable, machine-washable, and feature chemical-free cooling technology. They contain all of the cooling technology you would expect in our hats, and the fitted-stretch band fits most hat sizes.
Why Cooling Visors are Cool Headgear
As you may have guessed, the history of the sun visor is closely tied to the history of baseball caps. Early baseball teams, like the New York Knickerbockers (active from 1845 to 1875), began experimenting with different visored caps to keep the sun out of their eyes while searching the sky for fly balls. One of these experimental caps was the crownless sun visor, which offered the advantage of not trapping the heat near the skull — which is not a problem with MISSION’s proprietary technology. Today, the sun visor is a piece of Americana that is still wildly popular with golfers, boaters, and other sports enthusiasts. MISSION did not invent the sun visor, but we made it better than it ever has been.
Product Details
MISSION Cooling Sun Visors are engineered to combat the heat and to keep the wearer cool. They feature a wide, stiff 3-inch brim that starts from the temples forward. The brim and band have an Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) of 50, which means that the covered areas are protected against the sun for hours. The band has our HydroActive™ Instant Cooling techTechnology. Wet your hat, wring out the band, and wave it in the air. The temperature will drop to approximately 69 °F (20.5 °C), which is about 30˚ cooler than the average human body temperature. This cooling effect lasts for up to two hours. When it starts to wear off, just re-wet, wring, and wave. The material allows evaporation and heat dispersal, which aid in keeping your head cool. Here are the features that all MISSION Sun Visors have:
- HydroActive™ Instant Cooling Technology – Wet It, Wring It, Wave It
- UPF-50 Sun Protection
- Elastic BandStretch Fabric Fits Head Snuggly without Trapping in Heat
- One Size Fits Most
- Durable Construction
- Chemical-Free Cooling (As With All MISSION Products)
- Wider Band Covers More Surface
These sun visors are designed to keep you cool during vigorous activity. They are incredibly durable, so you can wear them no matter how dirty the job is. Throw them in the washing machine, and they’ll work just as well the next time you wear them. Unlike other products, MISSION Sun Visors aren’t treated with chemicals to wash away.
Technology
All of our sun visors are constructed from MISSION’s patented proprietary fabrics and have our proprietary design. Every feature has been meticulously engineered, from the width of the band to the curvature of the brim. Here is how the tech works:
HydroActive™ Instant Cooling Technology – The engineered fibers and weaves in our material enhance evaporation.
Vaporactive™ Heat Release Technology – Most materials hold your body heat in, which causes your skin to heat up. Our fabric allows the heat to be released.
Instant Cooling – Wet the band of your MISSION Cooling Visor, wring out the excess moisture, and then wave it in the air. Your visor will cool by up to 30˚ F in half a minute. The cooling effect lasts up to two hours, at which point you can repeat to stay cool all day long.
Because our technology is in the fabric itself, there are no chemicals that can wash away or be absorbed by the skin. HydroActive™ Instant Cooling Technology isn’t something we add to your sun visor — it is the visor.
