The 3WAY & Multi-Guard School Cap is Japan's first school cap with a built-in lightweight helmet.

Peek-a-Boo Co., Ltd., based in Saitama Prefecture and operating the UV protection brand "EPOCHAL," declares on this April Dream day its dream to realize a society where all children across Japan can commute to and from school safely.

3WAY & Multi-Guard School Cap

Our company planned and developed a single school cap that also helps with UV protection, heatstroke prevention, injury prevention, and disaster preparedness. We hope that elementary school students nationwide will wear this cap.

Data from the National Police Agency revealed that 500 children annually suffer serious injuries or fatalities during their commute. If minor injuries are included, more than ten times that number of children get injured while commuting to school.

Furthermore, we must realize that due to changes in environment and weather, commuting to school has become a time when children are exposed to dangers such as heatstroke and injuries.
