Sunday Afternoons Women's Sunset Sun Hat

$46.00

The wire around the brim helps to keep its shape, although I put my hats all to the test-- I wear them hard. ... They traveled well strapped to a back pack and if they got a bit misshapen during transport they were easy to return to however you might prefer

I bought this hat to actually work in my garden. I could see wearing this though to any outdoor event where I might want to dress up a bit. Nice quality hat and moldable to any head or look.

High quality hat. Love it! Great fit and love the colors.

Bought this hat for sun protection while some facial scars are healing. I 'm not a hat wearer, but if you have to wear a hat, this is the one! Love that there is wire in the brim so I can shape the hat how I want to and it stays where I want it. Also the material keeps me cool in hot weather, and this is the highest sun protection rating out there. I would recommend this hat!

5 Robyn
[ Buying another one since my daughter stole mine from me! Very bendable and light weight! Very easy to travel with! I don ’ t like wearing hats but forgot I was wearing this one!

Adorable hat! It has a good weight and feel to it. I do n't love the chin strap, but I was able to pin it up in the hat. Easy to adjust brim as needed

I got this hat because the brim is slightly smaller than my full on sun hat, so it ’s not as awkward to wear in the car or indoors, but still provides a good amount of sun

Very pleased- comfortable, breathable and packable.

Exactly the hat I wanted for my PCT thru- hike. I hiked 900 miles in 2019 with the Adventure hat, but looking to finish the last 1700 miles with my new brushline bucket. These hats really me protect from the brutal sun along the trail

5 Robert
A great hat and exceptional customer service. Satisfied all around.

Shape of the brim stays flat even after getting wet! No floppy brim! Great for active kids in the summer!

[ After much research for a summer sun hat I bought the Tilley airflow hat. The quality is exceptional and the fit is perfect. I love the coverage the brim gives me and so does my dermatologist! I never write reviews, but the Tilley hat is such a winner I felt obligated.

5 Dave
[ I 've had my first Tilley hat for about a month now and I ca n't believe I waited so long! The style is commented on a lot, but the comfort is the best I could imagine. It fits great and just sits on my head like someone is holding an umbrella over me. I 've worn caps/hats for most of my life, but I honestly sometimes forget I have this one on. Do yourself a favor and get yours now!

5 PhoebeKat
Best hat I ever had. Wife says it looks great. I did have to size up 1/4( from 7- 3/8 to 7- 5/8) since these hats are size specific and tend to run a tad small. Unless you have purchased Tilley previously, you should go into a store to try it on.

5 Hat Lover
Dick's kindly stocks the Tilly Brand including a 7 and 7/8th size that FITS my husband's head( solving a big problem for me) He loves the hat and wears ALL the time due to a brush with skin cancer.

5 ricky46
This is my second Tilley hat. This model is even better than my first one. Cooling vents around the top of hat keeps your head cool. Brim is stiff enough to resist wind and flexible enough to collapse for packing.

[ I ’ m a lifty at a ski resort in New Hampshire, I bought this for the rain and snow days, bEST hat I have ever owned!!! I get compliments every time I wear it, warm and keeps the wet out. Worth every penny and very Versatile

5 Lotus
[ I love the design of this rain/hiking hat. It has a nice felt lining and is wind resistant. Although this hat protects from the sun's harmful RAY 'S, it is not meant for really hot weather due to the felt lining( meant to keep your head warm). Outdoor Research makes sun hats that are more suited to the desert or really hot climates.

5 Love NC and FL
[ I go to the YMCA pool and met a nice couple that each had OR hats. I inquired about their hats. I liked what I heard so I purchased one for me and my husband. I love this hat I because it fits well, protects me from the sun and it is waterproof. I wear it when doing water exercise and when riding bike. I also purchased the Sombriolet sun hat which has a wider brim, vents and a chord to tighten to my head. I use both and I am very pleased because of the functionality and quality. PS I still use my baseball cap and visors.

5 Matt
[ This Hat does its job well. Light weight. Water resistant. Easily stuffed in a bag for storage. Retains it's shape after storage. I hav n't yet needed to use this hat in heavy rain, but it seemed to work well in light rain

5 Jenda
[ I bought this hat for my fair skinned husband. He wears it when he ’s working on the yard. It keeps his head cool and the sun out of his face. It ’s a winner!

[ Have used my white guide cap for sailing, rowing and golf. I like its adjustability and ample coverage of noggin, neck and ears. The roof vents are a nice touch.

5 Ann
This is the PERFECT hat. I 've purchased several other models in the past, and just bought 2 more of these so I always have one handy. The opening in the back is in the perfect place for a pony tail, and the size adjustment makes it fit like a glove- er.... a perfect- fitting hat. The neck gator is removable and the hat looks fantastic without it. You will not be sorry if you buy this hat!

5 Deborah
Best hat I have ever purchased for my husband and son who love the outdoors. My husband has had 5 skin cancers removed and requires a good hat. This is the one!!

[ I was in the market for a serious summer sun hat instead of the cheap ones available at all of the big box stores. After much research I decided on Sunday Afternoons Ultra Adventure Hat. I received it and I 'm lovin' it! The first thing I noticed was the air I could feel circulating on the top of my bald head. Having vents on your hat are important, however, they usually allow burning sun rays to filter through. Usually I have to decide between being sunburned without a hat or hot with a hat. The Ultra Adventure hat has happily made that decision for me with its ultraviolet protection factor of 50+, including the mesh panels. No more polka dot sunburned head! Also, its so light weight you can forget you have it on. It is really the lightest hat I have owned. Its hard to believe it can do its job and be so light on your head. The downward sloping 3 ¼ ” brim shades my entire face and the cape keeps the sun off my neck, which is another great design feature. This hat gives protection to head, face, neck and ears without being obtrusive. Other features include a sunglass lock that holds your glasses in place. It works too. I have tried to shake my head to dislodge them and they stay put. Also, if taking a hat in a back pack is an issue for you, this hat folds in half at the brim and can be kept in your pocket. Without a doubt, this is the best hat on the market and worth every penny. I urge people to give this hat a try if you are shopping for the best hat out there. Since its guaranteed for life, it will probably be the last sun hat you need to buy!! You may want to buy more though as soon as everyone sees how cool it is!

5 Astrita
This hat fits well and travels well. I can wear it with the chin strap or tuck that into the hat when I do n't need it. I have not yet worn it in the rain. I know it's not water proof( the one feature it does n't have)- I hope the water resistance is good enough for summer squalls. I wear it in my urban neighborhood as well as the lake. I like the wide brim for sun protection.

5 Barbara
Great hat! Fits well and keeps the sun off me. Love the way it collapses so I can pack it in my suitcase.

5 Dawn
Great for keeping the sun of your face- wider brim than most hats. Folds up for storage. Fits much better than most hats on my apparently large head.

I LOVE THIS HAT! I have it in all three colors and it is my favorite hat! the brim is large enough in front to cover my face from the sun and long enough in the back to cover my neck! Just right! I wore it while geoducking and everyone loved it! I like all three colors, but I wish the Opal one had a flowered lining like the black and blue ones do! Other than that, I more than highly recommend this hat for all ladies! it's the best!

5 Michaela W
I love this hat!!! It is my favorite Sunday Afternoons and I have many others. The only negative is it runs a little small. One Size. After stetching out the elastic band by pulling on it hard repeatedly, it fits comfortably. My head measures 22 1/4 '' around. Now I love it. Good sunblock and better looking than some of the others. I bought the cream with the black band. I would buy the blue and black too but I hate the multi print on the inside of the brim. If they came in plain black on the underside like the cream, I would buy both other colors. Why the multi print? Looks old- ladyish! Please offer all colors with a plain black under side of brim!!! An addendum to my review the black hat should have either solid black trim or back and white, like black and white stripes on the band with black solid under brim for shade protection. The red multi print is aweful!!!

5 Shochet
I just got my hat today and it's adorable and so well made. I ca n't wait to put it on and take the dogs for a walk with it! And the service was really great. Will probably get another one in another color soon!

Love my hat! It gives great sun protection and stays secure in the wind. I 've been purchasing Sunday Afternoon hats for more than 21 years! They are durable and last for years! I 'd still have my original if it had n't been stolen from a pool side where I love to swim.

5 LP Birder
Brim is stiffer than the same hat bought more than ten years ago, but I like this change. Overall, a terrific hat for keeping the sun off your face and out of your eyes. So durable!

[ This is a great hat to keep the sun off you while doing yard work, gardening, hiking, canoeing, or whatever outdoor activity you enjoy. Keeps your head cool and the sun out of your eyes.

5 crazygrandma
[ I really like this hat. It has an adjustable strap in base so I can adjust to fit my head exactly. I do n't have to worry about it sliding forward or off when I tip my head down. It has a nice wide brim to shade from the sun and a strap I can snug up in windy weather. The dark gray color does not show dirt! Great hat.

I have been wearing the same Sunday Afternoons Cruiser hat for five years. During that time I wore it on all of my trips in the High Sierra and through all of my training on the coastal trails nearby. It has been to the top of Mt. Whitney twice, the John Muir Trail, the Sierra High Route, the Trans Catalina Trail, a traverse of the Great Western Divide, a winter traverse of the Glacier Divide and hundreds of miles of other mountain adventures. I made a hat cover and used it as a rain hat. It has been washed after every trip, soaked in creeks, streams and lakes and used as a sit- pad on the trail. Even after all of that it held up. and only recently did it finally start to show some wear. I was saddened to see a small tear in the mesh vent start to grow into a hole. I picked up a new hat while at a local shop before leaving for a long trip this summer. But it was n't a Sunday Afternoons hat. I thought it would be fine... just another sun hat. No big deal. I wo n't mention the brand but it did not work out well. Even though it appeared to have a similar adjustment system I could never get it to fit right. Plus, the brim was always loosing shape and eventually I realized the problem. It was n't a Sunday Afternoons hat! So I ordered another Cruiser hat and it just arrived today. Right out of the box it fits perfectly, and the brim holds its shape just right. It even looks like the brim is slightly larger but that's probably due to the possible shrinkage of my old hat after hundreds of washing cycles. Thank you Sunday Afternoons!

5 Carolyn
Great hat! I get a lot of compliment on my cruiser. Love it. Do n't have to worry about rain. Packable.

5 Michelle
My old hat of this style in Large fit too tight, but the one I just received in Large fit larger, so to those of you wishing for an XL you might like this latest version. I am so happy! Now if we could only get some fun colors for us ladies it would be perfect. Oh well... one step at the time! Good work, Sunday Afternoons.

5 James
Been wearing this hat hiking in the desert for probably five years. Wo n't hit the trail without it. Wicks away sweat very well and is very cool. I have washed this hat literally dozens of times which is why it does n't seem to have the SPF factor it once had. been getting sunburned on my head lately. So, after five years I am buying the same hat again! BTW, I bought two hats. One medium, one large. At 7 1/8 '' hat size the medium was too small. Would n't change a thing.

I 've been living under this hat for more than 10 years! I love this one.

Does exactly what I was hoping the hat would do- shield me from the sun. The visor is great because it's large enough to shield your whole face from sun. Runs a little small and was on the bit pricey side( hence the 4 stars) but overall I 'd buy it agian.
