Very very fragile
I bought this 3 weeks ago in anticipation for a hot weather trip. All the straw snapped where the brim met the cone after 2 wears. Not very durable for lugging around on a trip
The BEST sun hat!
As a paddler and former kayak guide, I have a lot of paddle hats. Several models like this have a brim that goes down too far and makes it hard to see. This one is perfect. The brim is the perfect angle and it fits well. It has a little stretch and covers my entire face and neck without looking too silly. Huge fan. Bringing it to the BWCA this summer and I wear it daily walking the dog, gardening, and paddleboarding. :)
People looked at me wearing this hat !!
Hey I bought this hat, thinking Aahh, I'll give it a sceptical cruise around a while, kick tires, see if I'd keep it or not??! No doubt and real heat!! I really noticed my friends were acting hotter than me wiping theirsweat .ore than I wax!!! This pie s of work for a hat gets 100% &all the refers you xerve!!. Thank you for sharing this with everybody!
Large is not large enough
I ordered large for my dad who has a big head circumference. The large is too small. It is not for large headed individuals. More for an average sized head. I had to order another hat from a different company that was larger. I wish there had been a description of hat size or head circumference that this hat would fit.
great sun hat!
I bought this hat a couple of weeks ago and and am very happy with it. The hat weighs very little but sits securely on my head because of the good fit. The straw is beautifully woven, as is the stitching of the inside band. The black underside of the brim does the job of cutting down reflected glare.
like it
Large, and does not pinch my head. Lightweight and wide brim are great when I am working in the garden and on my daily walks, but our windy conditions eventually wore on the straw at the holes and ripped the straw, so I willingly bought another hat after a few years, since other hats pinch my head.
Great Sun Hat!
This is a great hat! In the heat of the day, you can feel a breeze through the crown, and the shade generously covers your face, ears, neck, and even part of my shoulders. I normally wear a 7 1/2 hat and this is a little snug, but it is barely noticeable. All in all, best sun hat out there.
Sun hat
Large brim protects me from the sun while teaching PE. The black fabric on the underside of the hat cuts down the glare reflecting off of the blacktop . I like the sturdiness of the hat, and it doesn’t flop around while I am teaching , running etc. with my classes.
Great sun hat!
Really great sun coverage, nice fit, & the stampede strap is good for cinching up if there’s a breeze. I love the wave image. Really dig this hat. It’s my go to for outside projects, water front walks & playing pickleball. Thank you Sunday Afternoon!
I love this hat. It looks great and has a fantastic fit. It's perfect for walking the dog or working outside. While it is not flexible like some of the other sun hats, it offers a durability that they can't provide.
