Home Prefer Outdoor Camouflage Fishing Reviews Summary

Fit and Comfort

Pros:

• "i have a weirdly shaped head, fits nice with room to spare and a string to tighten if your head is small."
• "Fits my head with all my thick hair."
• "I am a female with a small-medium head size. I got a small men’s and it fits perfectly."
• "It fits great, is lightweight for summer, and won't blow off when I walk on the beach."
• "Adjustable size, and fits my larger head fine."
• "I have a 22 5/8 inch head with lots of long hair so I bought this men's hat. It is beautiful, comfortable and breathes in hot weather."
• "Hard to find a woman’s hat that will fit my head. This hat fits me nicely."

Cons:

• "Very disappointed with the size. Can't believe that this is a MEN's hat!"
• "The brim is not that wide around the head for an adult."
• "Brim is okay, good coverage. Head fits but is a bit tight."
• "This hat practically cut off my circulation it was so tight."
• "I'm sending it back as it was sent folded over in a bag so small it fit into out mailbox."
• "tight, stiff, head gets hot even though mesh, and brim not large enough to protect face from sun.. ended up sending this back"
• "I have a big ol’ 23 1/4” head - lots of forehead, lots of hair. The description of this hat says it is supposed to fit up to 25” but it’s dead wrong."

Material and Quality

Pros:

• "The size adjustment pull cord worked well."
• "It is very light weight, breathable, and has a nice, wide rim."
• "I am presently surprised by the durability."
• "It holds up to the ocean very well. Rinses and keeps it shape."
• "The hat is made from high-quality materials and is very durable."
• "Seems to be well made out of ripstop tent material."
• "Extremely lightweight hat that hasn’t lost it’s shape."

Cons:

• "This is the cheapest material hat you can get your hands on.Considering the price of $15, you can find something way better at a store."
• "It’s honestly a lot thinner and crappy quality than I was hoping for."
• "This hat is very cheap feeling and the brim was bent when it arrived."
• "The material is also super thin. Now show how long it will last because I need to use it for work."
• "The material on top is so thin that I worry that there is little SPF factor."
• "The material was too lightwight, and did not keep its shape."
• "First of all, the hat is made in China. If that's not enough to discourage you let me explain. The hat is made of poor quality and the material does not seem SPF proof."

Design and Style

Pros:

• "Great sun protection."
• "It dries very quickly if wet, and doesn't look as ridiculous as many sun hats."
• "Strap is comfortable; easy to wear on a breezy beach."
• "It's very lightweight and flattens out to lay on the dashboard so it will not obstruct my view of driving."
• "Great sun protection from a lightweight hat. It’s breathable and has an adjustable headband."
• "It's light, breathable, stylish and of course keeps the sun out of my face."
• "This hat is great! If you are looking for a brim that is flexible and floppy this one has a stiffer brim so not the hat for you. This hat is lightweight and very comfortable."

Cons:

• "Dislike- no washing instructions."
• "Sorry for the negative review. The price was great, the materials are light weight which is perfect for hot sunny days. However, most heads are more of an oval shape, not circular like a balloon."
• "The hat as delivered does not have the flat crown as pictured, and isn't at all fashionable, but is otherwise OK."
• "Brim is larger than expected. Almost impossible to drive while wearing this hat."
• "First of all the hat delivery was delayed two different times, then when the hat arrived it was so flimsy and the brim of the hat looked absolutely ridiculous on my husband."
• "The brim of this hat could be designed different not what I was thinking it would be like mine is wavy not arched like the picture."
• "But the shape is a bit floppy, and not 'fashionable' by any means."

Functionality and Usability

Pros:

• "They protected them completely, no sunburnt faces or necks!"
• "Lightweight and comfortable. I use it constantly when outside to keep the sun off my face."
• "Great value for the $$ and 100% protects from the hot sun, even in the Bahamas over an entire month."
• "Did the job it was designed to do, keep my face, ears and neck from burning!"
• "After 15 years of Arizona hiking in hot weather and trying at least a dozen different hats, this is the best of the bunch."
• "Perfect fit and protection from the sun. The mesh allows for breathability and you can feel the wind keeping your head cool."
• "Offers great sun protection and the chin strap keeps the hat from blowing off when on the boat."

Cons:

• "I feel that the hat would have been fantastic had it survived the delivery process."
• "This hat was great: price, design, construction. I say was, because it blew away on a beach in Sardinia when I didn't have it on!"
• "I probably won’t wear it much outside of similar boating trips."
• "For my skin cancer prone husband! Perfectly protects ears and cord keeps hat from blowing off if boating or a windy day."
• "I wore this hat camping for two days - using SPF 70 sunscreen periodically throughout the day - and found that my face was still sunburnt by the end of each hike."
• "It only blocks the sun from hitting your forehead.... My nose and cheeks got a lil sunburned standing outside all day in this."
• "This product was purchased for my sons trip to the dessert. It was great for two days. It was light weight and offered really good sun protection. However it ripped after two days and could not be used."
