No, we've never heard of a throwshirt before, but it seems fairly self-explanatory. This cosy warm layer from Seattle-based KAVU is ideal for stashing in your backpack and slinging on when the temperature drops. Made in 7.5oz recycled polar fleece, it's got a nice high zip neck with elastic binding, a scooped tail and Velcro-adjustable cuffs – all of which should help you lock out the cold this winter. The colour-blocked panel design gives the throwshirt a neat dash of relaxed style, but this is primarily a piece for active lifestyles, with a roomy fit and gusseted underarms for ease of movement. Extra points for the sneaky jersey-lined handwarmer pockets.

Now here’s an origin story for you. Back in the early nineties, fishing boat skipper Barry Barr was fed up with wearing cheap trucker caps that got snatched off his head in storms, never to be seen again. He decided to make a super-durable cap that wouldn’t blow off whatever the weather, and he did it by stitching the webbing material from a Teva sandal all the way around the crown. Turned out his ‘Strapcap’ was a hit, and KAVU was born.
From humble beginnings flogging Strapcaps out of the boot of his car in Seattle, Barry’s since expanded to produce a whole array of durable outdoor kit with a laid-back, van-lifer vibe. The KAVU range takes in everything from sling bags to swim shorts, and while they’re serious about producing great gear that’s made to last, they’re also not afraid to have a laugh. Their prints are bold, playful, and in some cases so loud that they’ll take some considerable chutzpah to carry off – but that’s what makes them so much fun.
And if you’re wondering about the name, KAVU is an aviation acronym that stands for ‘klear above, visibility unlimited’. It means it’s a perfect day for an adventure.
