Perfect hat for large heads
Where has this hat been my entire life. I wear a sized hat 7 7/8 or 8, depending on the brand and material. This hat fits perfectly and has almost another inch of adjustment. Material is lightweight and very breathable making it very comfortable to wear. I only wish they made more colors. Please REI make more colors!!
Maybe not the best if you wear Rx lenses.
It's a quality cap. However, the crown is a bit tall, so the bottom of the cap sits low and rides on my glasses.
Nice running hat but too large for me
Nice hat but comes in one size only, which is too large for me (adult woman) even when adjusting cap to smallest possible.
Good airy hat!
Have been waiting to get a running/lightweight hat for months and super happy this one went on sale! This is really lightweight and breezy, and the reflective accents are very reflective.
Great for summer
Great hat for hiking in the sun. Adjustable to fit small to large noggins. For once I didn’t have sweat dripping in my eyes. Make more colors please.
My favorite hat!
This is my favorite hat! I love the buckle adjustment for sizing vs. almost all other brands uses a Velcro closure, which quickly wears out and doesn't hold my pony tail in place. Please, please make it available in other colors or at least in white!!!!
Dirty
Arrived with a weird black stain
I was so glad to find this hat!
I was overjoyed to find this cap at REI. It's the same size and shape and fabric as an REI cap that I've literally had for more than a decade and have worn constantly, which says everything about its quality. What I like about the cap is the way that it fits. Most caps fit high--they don't come down very far on my head--which makes them feel less stable and less cozy. This one is just right. It fits snugly and securely. It also has a slightly longer brim than most caps, which I appreciate as I'm always trying to limit my sun exposure.
Best. Hat. Ever.
Best hat ever. As soon as I put it on I knew. Expensive. But worth it. Comfortable. For those long runs, or short walks to the brew pub!
Great hat
Lightweight, comfy and dries quickly. Great running or hiking hat.
