UGOKU (動く) is the Japanese word for "to move." It captures exactly what the brand is about—headwear for people in motion, designed around adventure, trail running, and the outdoors.

TK (Trucker) caps feature a 3D structured mesh front panel — similar in silhouette to a classic trucker, but using mesh instead of foam for dramatically better ventilation. They weigh 59g. SWFT caps are soft-panel 5-panel running hats — entirely soft and packable, weighing just 52g. Both styles use elasticated closures and moisture-wicking headbands.

The Scorcher BK is UGOKU's performance bucket hat. It provides all-around sun protection with a pliable brim that folds flat for packing, a breathable fabric construction, and elasticated adjustment up to 60cm. It is cold water machine washable and weighs 61g.

Yes. All UGOKU caps are designed specifically for active use. They are lightweight (47–61g), packable into a vest or race pack, fast-drying, and feature elasticated closures that hold secure during movement. They are regularly used for trail running, ultramarathons, hiking, and outdoor racing events.

Yes — all caps are designed to be crushable and packable. TK caps use a flexible peak and 3D mesh that restores its shape when removed from a pack. SWFT caps have fully soft panels that fold completely flat.

TK (Trucker) art caps are hand wash only. SWFT soft-panel caps and the Scorcher BK bucket hat are cold water machine washable.

Yes. Every single cap sold results in one tree being planted through our verified reforestation partners Ecologi. No minimums, no thresholds — every order counts.

TK caps and SWFT caps are one-size-fits-most, with an elasticated closure (one end is elasticated) to ensure a personalised, secure fit for a wide range of head sizes. The Scorcher BK bucket hat adjusts up to a maximum circumference of 60cm.

UGOKU PROJECTS is a UK-based brand.

We love collaborations — the Tea and Trails Podcast cap is one example of what these partnerships can look like. If you have a community, podcast, event, or brand that aligns with the UGOKU spirit, get in touch via our Contact page.

If you live outside of the UK, our international customers may be subject to local customs or import duties that will need to be paid before your items can be delivered to you. 

As these vary by country, including EU countries from 1st January 2021, we aren’t able to predict, or influence, what fees may be applied. Your local customs office should be in touch once your order reaches them to let you know more details. 

Any products returned to us due to refusal to pay local duties and taxes will be refunded after all return shipping and process fees have been deducted from the refund.

Shipping charges for your order will be calculated and displayed at checkout.
