Specification

Trucker style from a trusted optics name

The Vortex Red Alert cap in charcoal brings classic trucker style to the range, the field and everyday wear. Vortex is best known for its rifle scopes and red dot sights, and that same attention to quality carries through to its apparel. This is a clean, understated cap that pairs with tactical kit or casual clothing.

Built for comfort and ventilation

Breathable mesh rear panels let air flow through the cap, keeping your head cooler during long days outdoors. The structured front panel holds its shape, and the peak keeps the sun out of your eyes when you are shooting or spectating.

One size, quick adjustment

A snapback closure at the back means one size fits most. Adjust it in seconds for a secure, comfortable fit with no fiddly sizing to worry about, ideal if you share kit or wear it over a beanie in colder months.

Everyday durability

Made from a hard-wearing 60% cotton, 40% polyester blend, the Red Alert cap stands up to regular use. A simple hand wash keeps it looking sharp. Browse more headwear and gear in our tactical clothing range.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Vortex Red Alert cap adjustable?

Yes. It uses a plastic snapback closure at the rear, so it adjusts to fit most adult head sizes with a quick click. There is no need to pick a specific size.

Does the mesh back make it cooler to wear?

Yes. The rear panels are open mesh rather than solid fabric, so air moves through the cap. It is a good choice for warm days at the range or on an airsoft field.

What is the cap made from?

The front and peak use a 60% cotton, 40% polyester blend with a structured front panel, while the back is breathable mesh for ventilation.

How should I clean it?

Hand wash in cold water and air dry. Avoid a hot machine wash or tumble dryer, which can distort the structured peak and front panel.

Is this an official Vortex product?

Yes. It is genuine Vortex Optics apparel, the same brand behind Vortex rifle scopes, red dots and binoculars used widely in shooting sports.
