It is very rare to find a quality straw hat that comes in an XL size. I was happy to find this for my husband who needs the larger size. The hat fits well and he loves it.

Best summer hat! ... Mid- August, I leave for a month- long vacation to Brazil where this hat will protect me from tropical rays as I stroll the famous beaches of Rio de Janeiro followed by 3 weeks in the Pantanal( jaguar safari!) and then an Amazon riverboat...

[ This hat is everything I hoped it would be- comfortable, functional& stylish. The strap is sturdy& the hat does n't move even with substantial gusts on open ocean.

[ I love hats and after losing my Columbia wide- brim hat in Zurich( I blame the chocolate) back in 2023, I was relieved to see a replacement a couple weeks ago. Imagine my surprise to unbox such a stylish chapeau! Though its wider brim made me think of Paris in the spring, it was bought for adventures in South America. Mid- August, I leave for a month- long vacation to Brazil where this hat will protect me from tropical rays as I stroll the famous beaches of Rio de Janeiro followed by 3 weeks in the Pantanal( jaguar safari!) and then an Amazon riverboat cruise. Packable, well- constructed with a must- have adjustable strap, it will literally top several quick- dry, multi- purpose, insect- shielded, Omni- Freeze Zero clothing from Columbia. In the meantime, I 've worn this hat for outdoor concerts and shopping at the Farmer's Market here at home in the Midwest. My head circumference is 21. 5 inches and the S/M is perfect. Thank you Columbia for getting it right, again!

[ Bought this for a European trip in September. Wanted a sun hat that also looked cute and this hat is points on. It ’s very comfortable, even fits over my pony tail( pony sits at base of neck) easily. Like the strap for just in case weather. Using it as a walking hat right now and it ’s very breathable. Uneasy packing it the way the picture shows as I feel like it ’ ll crack. Might just have to lay it down like traditional hat packing. It, I ’ d buy again( bought a small) and so many colors to choose from!

I never write reviews, but I really like this hat. I have a small head and it's hard to find a hat that fits. This one is adjustable. I 've been able to keep it on while hiking in the wind because of the chinstrap. It's water resistant. Plus it packs well. And most importantly, I like the colors- gray and pink.

Caitlin
This is a great hat for boating and kayaking in the Florida sun. It is comfortable and keeps most of the sun of my face. Also not too hot to wear.. It's nice to have a big hat that can be stuffed into a tiny dry bag in the evenings when the sun goes down.

Patti
This is a great hat. It travels very well and is adjustable for comfort. Really stays put without being too tight. Plus worked fine in a light rain, drying quickly. I love it and I do n't really like wearing most hats.

Great hat! Super functional and looks good with everything... meaning I will wear it beachside, poolside, at the river or in the garden... you get the point. This hat can take a beating in my bag and still look cute while I sit in the stands at my kids' soccer games.

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!

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!!!

AMY L ANGELO
My kids and I love our hats for a couple of reasons. First, they are so light that we do n't feel like we are even wearing a hat that gives great sun coverage, but we are! Second, my kids are able to get great sun coverage with comfort. In the past most of the hats they wore had brims in the back too. This would cause them to have to take the hats off when they sat in their cars seats, etc. Now they keep them on and they stay on because of the flat feature in the back of these hats! Great design! Thank you Sunday Afternoons!

Susan
LOVE LOVE LOVE this hat! This is the second one I 've purchased. We enjoy being on our waverunner at the Lake or being at the pool all day. Wearing the hat I know that my face and neck will not be sunburned after a long day on the water. I LOVE everything about this hat, especially that it comes in two colors of purple!

I brought the Athena hat for a month- long trip in Europe! I love that it packs well without losing its shape. I nest it in my luggage( I do n't flatten it), or put it in my( large) purse while traveling. It's held its shape well without getting crumpled. This has been great for city adventures and hikes while in Europe!

[ Beautiful hat. Cool enough my teenage daughter is planning to wear it on an upcoming cruise and at the beach this summer. Perfect mix of boho and practicality. Love the style, fit, color and drawstring to hold it in place. I ’ m planning on ‘ borrowing ’ it often. I have 22 ” head and it is snug on me but fits well.

Great hat! Nice neutral color( Oat) that is not too dark for hot days and goes with any other colors. The hat can be shaped and reshaped to multiple styles, and it is easy to wipe off. The chin strap keeps the hat secure on windy days. I love that its 50 spf, yet the weave of the material still lets the air circulate under the hat so your head does n't get sweaty. I bought my sister this hat because I bought the same hat in another color and liked it so much. Good value for the cost.

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!

I pair this visor with earmuffs when I wear my parka with the hood up. I wanted to shade my face and eyes from the sun. I needed a visor that did n't wrap half way around my head and was flexible enough to let my parka hood come around my face. This visor is perfect for that. The wide ban also keep my hair out of my face.

[ My head measurement suggests either a medium or a large. Based on a review I saw on the manufacturer's site suggesting to go with the large in the same situation, I did, and I am glad I did. This hat is super- comfortable and light. I got it in black and it's the kind of hat you can wear in town or on the trail, because in black it does n't look `` outdoorsy ''. I 've been wearing it under a sun hoody for maximum sun protection.

I hate hats, especially in the summer, but the need for sun protection has driven me to reconsider. I have bought so many hats and I would wear them only when I had too. This hat is different, it is comfortable, lightweight, vented, and stylish. I like it so much I have recommended it to numerous others and given one to my Dad for Father's day. I highly recommend this hat to anyone looking for a hat they can wear when they need coverage and also want to be active.

Karen
I needed a hat to use when attending all day outdoor events. With very fair skin it does n't matter how much sunscreen I use I still get red. This hat is great for keeping the sun off my face and neck. I really like how lightweight the top part of the hat is. I also like the ability to size the hat and the venting. This is a great hat if you are looking for comfort and good coverage.

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.

I love wearing this hat. I am a letter carrier and have a walking route so I use it for head/face protection. I have washed it a few times and dried it in accordance with the instructions each time. The last time I washed it and was drying it by way of the instructions but I got a little inpatient and decided to throw it in the dryer with air dry. I could not believe it but it still shrunk. So my next one will be dried by there recommendation.

WOW. My Lattitude hat is AMAZING. I exchanged it for the hat above. AZ is windy and I wanted to be sure I had a lanyard keeping that exceptional hat on my head.

Well made, sturdy, and stylish. I have bought several hats from Sunday Afternoons: gardening and walking hats that are easy to wash and look like new though they are over 8 years old and kids hats for my grand daughters that take a beating and still look great. Couldn ’ t be happier.
When searching for the best beach hats for ladies, consider features such as UV protection, breathability, and a comfortable fit. A wide brim can provide additional shade and protection from the sun, while lightweight materials help keep you cool. Adjustable straps or chin cords can also enhance stability, especially on windy days.
Ladies' beach hats are often made from materials like straw, cotton, and synthetic fabrics. Straw hats are popular for their lightweight and breathable qualities, while cotton offers comfort and easy care. Synthetic fabrics may provide added durability and moisture-wicking properties, making them suitable for active beach days.
Yes, there are various styles of beach hats for ladies, including wide-brimmed hats, floppy hats, and visors. Each style offers different levels of sun protection and aesthetic appeal. Wide-brimmed hats are great for maximum coverage, while visors provide a sporty look with less coverage on the sides.
To choose the right size for a beach hat, measure the circumference of your head just above your ears and eyebrows. Most hats come in standard sizes, but many also feature adjustable elements for a customized fit. It's important to ensure the hat sits comfortably without being too tight or too loose.
Absolutely! Beach hats can be versatile accessories suitable for various outdoor activities such as hiking, picnicking, or gardening. Their sun protection features make them ideal for any situation where you'll be exposed to sunlight for extended periods.
To maintain the shape of your beach hat, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid crushing it by placing it upside down on a flat surface or using a hat box. If the hat is packable, follow the manufacturer's instructions for folding it without damaging the material.
