Mixed bag. Flap too short, hat is thick & hot in humidity.

3 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cool retro style and idea of sun protection. Flap is 1/2 inch too short to cover entire neck and leaves a strip of skin exposed at top of shirt. Makes me question if anyone wear tests these designs or it's just measurements on a piece of paper. It's not as functional as it should be. On a humid day, that hat doesn't feel like it breathes and I sweat a whole bunch more than my full circle brim style sun hats. On a dry heat day it's nice. It works well under a helmet for my Onewheel rides. Overall it's nice quality, but I need to modify the back flap and add length for actual sun protection. I wear 7 1/2 inch fitted hat and this hat fit me snug. I popped a few stitches but it still fits on smaller side. If I paid retail I would be bummed. Half price with my rewards bucks takes away some of that sting.

Nah, skip it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Flap is too short to cover entire neck. Defeats the purpose of the design. Cap runs smaller. Thick material does not breath well. Cool retro branding tho. I ended up returning for a boonie hat after website reached out. Store return was awesome in Easton Columbus, OH

Peak is stuff and sits flat

3 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The hat itself is ok but the peak (bill) is so flat and stiff. No bend or curve whatsoever. Tried bending it, feels like a stiff cardboard inside, but does not keep the shape. Don't wear, would not recommend, definitely would not purchase again

Love it

2 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I work outside all day at a COVID testing site and need to wear a mask. The mask tan I developed has been driving me insane, so I've been looking for something to protect the sides of my face, so I can avoid wearing a gaiter (breaks me out). This hat has been heaven-sent. I will say, i read all the other reviews and agree that if your head is on the bigger side of things, yeah this will probably be snug. I have a short pixie cut so it worked out perfectly for me, I even had to adjust it a little. The material is durable, and the color perfectly matched my navy scrubs. I'm quite the sweaty lady and can confidently say this hat helped keep me cool. I'm looking to buy more colors in the future and definitely recommend. Oh also someone else said they wished they made this hat for women- yo, this hat is definitely unisex. 5 stars

Sun and skin cancer protection

3 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Looks and feels and fits greaat!! I like the adjustable chin strap that you can adjust and it will keep the hat on when then wind is blowing. Best of all , I am susceptible to skin cancer and this has a UVP 40 so it is what my dermatologist recommended; and I can feel the flap cover cools my ears and back of the neck as it protects me at the same time.

Highly recommend this hat!!!!!

3 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I live in a desert area of Southern California and with the extreme heat and this hat has helped me with the harsh sun exposure. Keeps the direct sunlight and heat off of me while not overheating me like a regular hat that isnt uv resistant. Really like the hat wish they had some for kids or women so I can get some for my family.

Clean

3 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this in the sun at work, I'm also going to try it out in the rain. I love the color and logo. It is exactly what i was looking for. The only thing i wish it had was some little holes for air to come through. Other than that it's a great product. 4.5/5

4.20 outta 5

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got it for cover from the sun at my new landscaping job. The under-chin string is nice for keeping it secure on your head. The protective UV flap could be a little more weighted so when there's a slight breeze it wont fly up off the neck.

Highly recommend for those looking for extra sun protection.

3 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great looking hat that provides expanded protection from the sun. I wear this hat to the beach and on hikes. Offers good size adjustability and the chin string comes in handy on windy days. Hat also dries fast. Would buy it again.

Just slightly too small for large heads

3 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was for me but it's slightly too small for my gigantic melon of a head. Love the style and feel. If it was just a little bigger I would still be wearing it. But it fits my son like it was meant for him.

Yes , I recommend this product
