Outdoor-Focused Performance Collections : BlackStrap

BlackStrap has evolved from its origins as a winter facemask specialist in Bend, Oregon, to offer a comprehensive range of four-season technical apparel. The brand has become particularly recognized for its versatile sun protection gear.

The brand’s Summer 2025 lineup continues this tradition of innovation, featuring collections designed for high-performance activities across various environments. The Brackish collection stands out with its UPF 50+ rated clothing options made from SUNSOFT fabric that combines sun protection with quick-drying capabilities. The multifunctional UV Headband demonstrates BlackStrap’s problem-solving approach, addressing both sun protection and sweat management through PERFA Fabric Technology that offers evaporative cooling when wet. The DailyTube product, on the other hand, serves as a versatile accessory for sun, wind, and insect protection, while the upcoming Voyage collection introduces performance-oriented mesh tops with moisture-wicking properties and practical features like zippered pockets, tailored for runners and mountain bikers.
