Ribcap Marley Hat
The Ribcap Marley is a ski cap that offers more protection than a normal hat. It is not a replacement for a ski helmet.
The Ribcap Marley is available in wool (outside) and cotton (inside) with five color options. The Marley is available in sizes Small/Medium and Medium/Large. All Ribcap models, including the Marley, utilize the incredible new Structure technology so that you can look cool while protecting your head.
The Ribcap Marley is new head protection for all outdoor activities.
The Ribcap is a woolen hat or beanie with sewn-in lightweight StructUre ™ impact responsive protectors. It offers you all the advantages of a normal hat, cap or beanie and can at the same time protect you against bumps, bruises, grazes, etc…
Using Structure’s advanced lightweight technology Ribcaps are unique. Structure technology is a specially engineered material that is capable of effectively absorbing impact and can therefore protect your head against injuries like bumps, bruises, grazes, etc… The protection-effect is also guaranteed for low temperatures and for extreme dampness.
StructUre is a lightweight material, much lighter than the d3o used in previous versions of the Ribcap and it also offers 100% breathability which was a disadvantage of previous models. StructUre offers excellent head protection, and the NEW Ribcap is currently subject to an application for a completely new “soft head protection” category in European CE Safety rankings, that has been inspired specifically by the revolutionary design of the Ribcap.
How StructUre ™ works:
Upon impact StructUre ™ material changes from a lightweight flexible material into a semi-rigid or fully rigid state depending on the size of the impact. This cushions the Ribcap user’s head protecting them from bumps, cuts and grazes…
Fashionable and safe – this really is much better than wearing nothing and the next best thing to wearing a helmet.
IMPORTANT: Please note that although Ribcap with Structure technology offers much greater protection than a regular cap, Ribcap does not offer complete head protection nor comply with any standards established for protective headgear like helmets.
