The Canvas/Waxcloth Mallard Cap is built for hunters and outdoorsmen who expect their gear to work as hard as they do. This isn’t a fashion piece — it’s a field-ready waterfowl hat engineered for variable weather, dawn-to-dusk wear, and countless seasons in the blind. Built on Paramount’s rugged Riverside 6-panel profile, it carries the traditional baseball cap stance but with upgraded durability and structure suited for migration season and long, wind-cut mornings on wet marsh grass. The body is constructed from heavy cotton canvas, a time-tested material chosen for its natural toughness and weather resistance. Up front, a wax-cloth visor adds an extra layer of water resistance and sheds moisture rather than soaking it in like a standard bill.
To lock in comfort and function, this cap features the Comfort Snap closure — a hybrid system that combines the durability and adjustability of a snapback with the adaptive stretch of elastic. That means a precise, glove-like fit that won’t loosen, choke, or fatigue the head throughout extended wear. The American Fit sizing ensures it sits right on actual working head sizes, fitting men’s MD through 2X comfortably without the too-small crown shape often found on imported hats.
Additional detailing gives the cap a timeless field-grade aesthetic. The classic rope accent across the visor line ties back to historic guide and outfitter caps. Under the crown and visor is a throwback camouflage print, subtle until you tip the bill — a nod to tradition without sacrificing the clean field-worthy exterior. Built in olive coloration, it blends naturally into marsh, river edge, and timber environments, making it as appropriate for scouting as it is for the blind.
This is a no-nonsense field cap — durable canvas where it matters, waxcloth shielding where it counts, and a fit system that makes it disappear on your head when the work starts. It looks right, wears right, and is purpose-built to handle weather and hard use without compromise. One size fits all — not because it’s generic, but because it adjusts like premium equipment should.
