The Waypoint 7 Panel
Built for the coordinates yet to be charted.
Inspired by high-alpine routes and relentless weather, The Waypoint 7-Panel is engineered to be your constant trail companion. Built on the iconic Richardson 168 chassis, this cap abandons standard embroidery for a rugged, element-proof PVC patch that holds up to downpours, mud, and endless pack wear without fading or fraying. Offered in Loden, Charcoal, and Caramel, it balances a structured, technical profile with effortless off-grid style whether breaking treeline at dawn or grabbing a post-hike brew.
