Nice fitting waterproof baseball cap

adjustable toggle
light
waterproof
comfy
good sun peak

not hugely breathable
not warm

I bought this beacause my last walking "baseball" cap was a tad heavy and not at all waterproof and so uncomfortable when wet.
The Lowe Alpine cap seemed to be a natural replacement. It was light, comfy and waterproof and I find that i wear it for 3 seasons of the year. I also will wear it in the winter if I am using a paramo or buffalo smock as the peak of the cap helps to keep the hood from scrunching down on my face and my glasses.
The only downside is that it isnt insulated and in high summer will retain the sweat from your head as its not that breathable
Having said that I have now used it hugely during the last 2 years and havent found anything to better ir yet
