[ 1. the brim is better built than previous OR hats, this one wo n't curl or warp. 2. it's so flexible and lightweight you can secure it in your front pocket. 3. the air vents on the side really work to keep your head cool. 4. the color schemes are very good looking and clean. Photos are of the Khaki/Dark Grey. But the White/Light Grey looks awesome too!

Liz
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.
5
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.
5
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 how this hat fits into my pocket or my purse since the brims folds! I have two little kids under the age of 3 so it is great to have it stow so quickly and easily. It is REALLY comfortable where it sits on my head, the fabric is soft and does not feel tight or give me a headache. It is hard to find a hat that holds up to little kids playing with it, AND be super comfortable to wear all day AND still be a great price. This hat is fantastic!!! I got the blue color, which is very subtle and pretty, by the way!

My husband and I purchased our visors while on a road trip and I like them so much that I have stolen his. They are great for my pickleball matches and wash in the machine beautifully. The lightweight fabric is cool, soft and still looks new after multiple washings. Will definitely replace them if and when the time comes. Excellent value!

I can also just throw it in the washer with no problem comes out same way it when in can ’ t do that with my straw hats.

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.

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.

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.

The wide ban also keep my hair out of my face.

5
Pablo
The moment I received the box, I knew there would be something special inside... and there was. From the quality packaging to every aspect of the hat itself, the care and attention to detail is readily apparent. The hat is great with useful features like the inner compartment, sunglass holders, and chin strap which are sometimes extra charge items. With regard to styling, construction, and function, this hat gives up nothing. That it's prices so reasonably for what it offers is just icing on the cake. I 'll be getting another one in a different color soon.

[ The hat seems to fit well as I do have a relatively large head. It blocks sun well. Given I live in Florida, I have not been able to test in the rain yet. I read conflicting reviews on how waterproof it is. I plan to use for long hime in Portugal later this month. If I encounter torrential downpours, I will also have a waterproof hood to wear over top. I think the color I purchased is fine for what I need.

[ 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!

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.

CrumpledNotes
[ 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.

Karen
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.

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

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

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.

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.

Just received my hat and if possible, it's even better than I thought, lightweight, nice sized brim, great color and airy. Greatest company ever! Love all of my hats from SD, especially my Havanas( have both colors).

I completely agree with Jennifer. Please, please make the Aerial cap in white.

I love this cap so much. I wish you made it in white. I 've tried all your other cap styles that you do make in white, and none of them look good on me the way this Aerial cap does. Please please please make it in white! This is seriously the most perfect cap I can imagine.

I love the fit and look. I bought the turquoise color, which I like, but would like a plain WHITE better, as the other reviewers commented. Very Comfortable and lightweight!

It is a little heavier than a normal swift hat, but I tend to like a heavier hat as this one is more durable. ... The material breaths well and the adjustment system is simple and easy to adjust on windy

The hat is a solid hat from Outdoor Research. It reminds me of one of my favorite hats from 4- 5 years ago from OR. The hat is a mid crowd hat compared to other older models breathable trucker hats. The material breaths well and the adjustment system is simple and easy to adjust on windy days. You can throw it in your bag in the morning and wear for happy hour beers after a ride. Easy to clean or wash off on a a rainy day. Solid boat or river hat too.

hi OR awesome hat but the logo is ambiguously trail- y and I was thinking, a great logo for this collection might be an `` OR '' where the `` O '' is represented by the silhouette of a 12- gear cassette. THAT says mountain bike! Thanks

This hat is a great performance hat for everything. It is a little heavier than a normal swift hat, but I tend to like a heavier hat as this one is more durable. The connection point in the back is stretchy which is very comfortable. I have been running with this hat and it has become my go- to running hat. I am very picky with my hats and this OR hat ticks all the boxes of what I would consider to be a great hat.

Only had about a month but feel like I 've pushed it hard. Really enjoying this for trail running and backpacking. Definitely cooler than a full hat, especially when wearing under a sun hoodie. Stretches nicely, does a good job at managing sweat drip. Stays comfortable when wearing all day. Can still blow off if you 're not careful. my daughters tell me it looks dorky, but they say that about a lot of things...

[ Great little hat. So easy to carry on or off trail. Stuffs into pocket or backpack out in an instant. No worries of bill being smashed like a ball cap.

[ I love the pocket hats. I have 4 of them! They are so comfortable that I can wear them all day. You are unable to adjust the size but that does n't matter to me.

[ I buy extras of this hat because my head is big; one size all does not fit me so if I ca n't just buy one off the rack to keep the sun out of my eyes if I lose one. They are comfy, fold easily into my bag, I like the style. Not easy to find in an XL.

I have searched the globe for the perfect hat, and this is now my go- to number one! The flexible and soft brim is fantastic, and the high- quality material is soft to the touch and cooling to wear. It fits like a glove on my head, offering both comfort and style. Not only is it functional, but it also looks great. Highly recommend!

I purchased this for using while running and it has addressed my needs perfectly. Lightweight, packable and just enough of a bill to keep the sun out of my eyes during those early morning runs. I have a larger head and these xl OR hats always fit great.
When searching for the best summer hiking hat, consider features such as breathability, UV protection, and moisture-wicking materials. A wide brim can provide additional shade, while mesh panels enhance airflow to keep you cool. Lightweight and quick-drying fabrics are also beneficial for comfort during long hikes.
UV protection is crucial in a summer hiking hat as it helps shield your face and neck from harmful sun rays. Look for hats with a UPF rating, which indicates the level of protection offered. A good summer hiking hat can significantly reduce the risk of sunburn and long-term skin damage during outdoor activities.
The best materials for summer hiking hats are lightweight, breathable fabrics that wick moisture away from the skin. Look for options made from polyester, nylon, or cotton blends, as these materials provide comfort and durability. Additionally, hats with mesh panels can improve ventilation, making them ideal for hot weather.
Yes, certain styles of hats are more suited for summer hiking. Wide-brimmed hats offer excellent sun protection, while caps with ventilation features can keep you cool. Trucker hats and booney hats are popular choices, as they combine style with functionality, ensuring comfort during your outdoor adventures.
To choose the right size for a summer hiking hat, measure the circumference of your head just above your ears and eyebrows. Most hats come with sizing charts that correlate measurements to sizes, ensuring a proper fit. A well-fitting hat should feel secure without being too tight, allowing for comfort during extended wear.
