WEATHER-READY TECHNICAL CAPS
Custom Waterproof Caps Manufacturer
LOSTCAPS develops custom water-resistant and weather-ready caps for outdoor, running, golf and travel brands. The correct specification depends on fabric, coating, seams and construction, so we distinguish between water-resistant, water-repellent and fully waterproof requirements rather than using one claim for every product.
