CAP LOCKERS: The Ultimate Hat Strap for Windy, Wet & Wild Adventures

Welcome to the official CAP LOCKERS blog! The smart and simple solution for outdoor lovers, surfers, kayakers, bickers, and adventure seekers who are tired of losing their favorite caps!

I’m Fannie, founder of CAP LOCKERS. I created this product out of necessity because I didn’t want a bulky hat strapped around my neck, and I was fed up with my eyes hurting during my surf sessions.
CAP LOCKERS is the outdoor sports gear that keeps you from ever losing your cap again!

Today, I’m excited to share our mission, our growing outdoor adventure community, and what’s coming next!
