Great summer hat.
Very stylish hat. Excellent sun protection. Will be cool in the hot sun.
Lots of shade
This is a good hat with a large brim that really keeps the sun off your face, neck and head. It is light a comfortable
Wonderful Hat!
I love this hat! It keeps me much cooler than my old hat and my head doesn't sweat as much. The only negative is when the wind blows it gets blown off my head pretty easily, even though I have the chin strap on. Other than that, its perfect.

Great Fit, Cool, Light Weight
I have a small head so it was nice to be able to mail order a hat that fits...and it does it's job just right...lightweight and great coverage. A good buy, a good garden hat, and a good sun hat.
Great hat!
I bought this hat based on the reviews I read on this site and I'm very happy with it. It's lightweight, comfortable, and offers great sun protection. One little thing, the tie for under your chin was not attached evenly so when I wear the hat one is behind one ear and the other side is in front. I would still recommend it though. Also, I was between sizes but ordered it based on another review that said there is an adjustment in the back of hat, that is not mentioned in the description.
Nice hat
It's a really nice hat. Not only lightweight, but really protects my skin from sunburn. Recommend. Love it.
I Love this hat.
It is so light weight you forget it is on your head. It provides ample shading on your face and neck. It helps keep you cool and dries quickly.
terrific sun hat
I love the adjustable sizing on this hat. Very comfortable, lightweight material. Longer brim in back provides excellent coverage. More color selection would have been nice. Great product; fast shipping.
Nice Hat!
I bought the hat for sailing. I am very fair and it is important for me to have a good hat that will stay put. I looked at many other hats that were much more expensive and not as cute. This hat is a nice material. The brim is wide enough and I did not receive any color on my face. It stayed on but you have to keep it tied and tightened (I appreicated that you can tighten the crown). I will be using this hat again and again. Bonus: My boyfriend thought I looked adorable.
Great Fit
I love it that this hat comes in sizes because most hats are too big for me. In addition to size, the exact fit can be adjusted with a rubber cord on top of the hat. Picked the honeycomb color and love its brightness. Color is very close to the one shown.
SUPER AWESOME HAT
I absolutely love this hat. I brought for the sole purpose of keeping the sun off my face because i i tan very easy and i don't like it. And it totally does the trick. it provides shade which keeps me cool on those humid nyc days. I brought the Sky Blue and the color goes with everything. It super lightweight and has a cord on the top of the hat if you like a snugger fit. I highly recommend it.
Fantastic hat!
I love this hat. I bought it to wear on vacation in the Caribbean and was never without it during the day. It's light, packs well, provides great protection, and the cord held it on well in the wind & on top of the dive boat. I ordered according to the size chart and it fit just great!
Great Hat!
This hat not only provides ample sun protection from its wide brim but it is also UPF 50+. Waterproof and easy to compact I take this hat all over!
Light and Comfy
I love this Sombrero hat!Bought it for an upcoming trip to Ecuador. Like the way it extends a little longer in the back to shade the back of my neck. It's light as a feather and very "packable" - probably best packed flat. Fits great - finally a hat large enough for me and yet adjustable. Nice feminine touch - a pretty embroidered flower on the back. Just read that it is guaranteed forever! Nice to know. Hope I never lose it!
great fit!
My Oasis! - lightweight, cool and provides just the sun coverage I must have. This hat will go around the Alps with me!
Cool and Comfy
What a comfortable hat! I can't wait to take it to the Alps with me and won't worry about getting too much sun with such a wide brim to shade my face.
Great hat
It's a great hat and will go with me on all of my trips. It's stylish and lightweight and best of all has a high spf.
the best hat i have
this is an awesome hat. i got it for gardening and it has kept me cool and off of the sun's rays.
Great hat made for sun protection
I bought this hat to keep the sun off of melasma that I have on my face. I love the cord that keeps it from blowing off when you are outside. The wide brim protects your face but still looks attractive. It is very well made.
I LOVE THIS HAT
I wore this hat to Hawaii and it was great in the sun. I love the extra wide brim for sun protection. I had others ask where I got it, they liked it so much. It fits great and doesn't make my head sweat. I now have 2.
such a lovely hat !
I purchase this hat for my hiking and watch my girls' sport on the weekend. It is so wide brim and so soft and stylish. Every mom should should buy one.
Super hat
I love this hat. One-size hats never fit me - this is sized, with a cord for additional fit adjustment. It's lighter and cooler than the straw hats I'd been using. The large brim keeps the sun off well, and the chin strap keeps it on - a feature I don't like to do without. Very practical, but also looks great on - not frumpy or droopy.
Great purchase
We live in Washington Sate and this is a must.
Nice hat
This is a great hat for all kinds of activities from hiking to a day at the beach.
all that you might expect.
Purchased this for my wife who has given it plenty of use gardening and has nothing but raves for its comfort and utility.
Great hat!
Great for hiking, kayaking and walking in our hot Charleston climate...use it in the mountains for hiking too.
lovely
I love this hat. It makes me look so good. It is also convenient to wear for outdoor activity.
Good hat for keeping the sun off the face.
I loved this hat. The only problem I had was when
it was really windy,because the brim is big.
I was glad it had a chin cord so it didn't fly
away.
Since I have a big head I was glad to find a hat
that wasn't a one size fits most,because usually
they don't fit me.
I also liked that it packed away in my luggage
but came out looking nice.
Fun in the Sun
Great Hat! Stays on no matter how hard the wind blows. Offers thorough protection from the sun while keeping me cool. Great gift for the outdoor lover who wants to avoid sun damage.
Kayaking hat
Quality just what I had hoped for. Have not had the opportunity to actually use it though.
cool hat
great hat because of the longer brim in back, and the brim is strong but flexible, and the top is very lightweight. also, good having chin strap. only drawback - might be even cooler with some kind of mesh in top instead of only the light material. got one for me and for Mom - she's got to keep her face, neck out of the sun, she loves it!
above average

Great Sun Hat
Bought this for my wife--primarily for gardening--and she loves it.Holds its shape after moderate abuse and definitely keeps the sun off.
Easy to wear
I recently moved to Hawaii and needed an all-purpose hat. I wear this at the beach, the farmer's market, everywhere! It's lightweight and protects the face very well.
a lot of hat, intense colors, not all that packable
I can see the virtues of this hat--great brim, great coverage, fits really well, but it's too much hat for me, the spring color is not the pale thing you see on your computer screen but a disney bright shade. And it doesn't look to me to be truly packable--certainly not stuffable, as the brim needs to stay flat. Great hat for lots of folks, I see, but not for me. It's going back.
NICE STYLE, BRIM WRINKLED
I LIKE THE DESIGN AND STYLE, BUT THE MATERIAL ON THE BRIM IS WRINKLED. IT IS AS IF THE FOAM INSIDE THE BRIM IS TOO BIG.
