[ 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!

5 Kim
[ Width of the hat brim is perfect for both front and back of neck. Folds up nicely.

5 TClemmens
[ 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!

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

[ 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!

5 Mike
[ I bought this a little while ago and it ’s been great. Super lightweight so you hardly notice it ’s on. It also cleans real easy if you end up getting it dirty while you ’ re out and about. The buckle on the back makes for an easy adjustment as well.

5 Strahwk
[ Have used these hats for a few years now. Very comfortable, and dries quickly after a rain storm. First hat lasted over 3 years until i got a little too aggressive with a brush while cleaning it. There is nothing about them I do n't like.

[ This is the only hat my husband will wear when doing anything out in the sun! This is about the 5th hat he ’s owned!! He is fair skinned and he takes the advice from his dermatologist very seriously! We live at close to 7, 000 feet elevation and he goes hiking and snowshoeing at 10, 000 feet. Doesn ’ t go anywhere without this hat! Our son in law is a two of these hats now and loves them!

5 Jam
The Sun Runner Cap is an essential piece of gear for my long days of ecological field research in the hot, sunny, arid deserts of Utah. The lightweight and protective material has kept my neck and ears from burning. The fitted cap and chin cord keeps my hat in place in windy conditions. The versatile design has also been crucial in decreasing my exposure to dusty roads, plant materials, and other allergens throughout the day, as I 've been able to tie the cape to cover my nose. I may add Velcro to the cape to cover my nose more easily though. I definitely recommend this excellent product!

5 Louis D.
[ I own many hats. Out of all the hats I own, this Mission HydroActive Performance hat has quickly became my favorite. It has become my daily go- to hat. The reason? Extremely lightweight, extremely breathable, extremely comfortable. It's almost like wearing nothing, except it covers up my bad hair day. As a unstructured hat, It never gets wrinkled, unlike many other hats out there. I wear it to work, and just toss it in my backpack along with everything else. Even though it is very light, do n't underestimate the protection that it provides from from the sun, not the quality of the product. I hope Mission continues to make these hats, as I will keep buying them. I like it so much, I have already bought another!

[ This hat is light, packable, has a perfect width brim, doesnt't bump your backpack at the back of your head and has a nice choice of colors. Whats not to like.

5 Careful reviewer
[ I bought this to work outside on hot days, and it works well for that. I have n't tried it on a super hot day yet, but suspect it could use a bit more breathability for those conditions. It provides full coverage from the sun and still gives you pretty good vision. I did n't buy it for looks, but I think it looks cool in kind of a dorky way. The sizing is a bit big, I 'm a 7 1/2 hat size and got a large, and have to cinch the strap down pretty much to get it to fit tight, which wrinkles it up a bit, but I tried a medium and it just was n't quite big enough. It is nice to have the adjustability, which you do with an easy pull strap. The colors are great and the price is fair.

5 Suzi
[ Bought this for sun protection while walking and hiking. I live in AZ and the sun is brutal. But my challenge is finding a hat that has great ventilation as well to keep me from over heating.

But for walking, running and hiking it is PERFECT

5 Thomas
[ Got tired of putting sunscreen all over my ears and back of neck for walks/runs, and this has great sun coverage! It stays cool even on warm runs. Love the ponytail opening and adjustable tightness, but I do n't use the hanging drawcord. I probably should, because this catches in the wind and blows off a little more than regular baseball caps if it's not adjusted tight. My friends assure me it does n't even look quite as stupid as I was worried it would, but the goal is sun coverage, and for that it works great.

This hat is insanely light weight. I spent all of this past summer running with it and it keeps the sun off my face and sweat out of my eyes, while perfectly managing heat. I 've tossed it in the laundry after almost every run, and it still looks brand new.

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!

Light, breathable, and lasts a heck of a long time. Good for running, outdoor activities, and daily wear.

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.

Big cover around my head to protect my face from the sun. Easy to adjust. Great product.

5 lsgjrshotokan_golf
Initial use of the hat proved to be perfect. It is very comfortable and protects face, ears, and neck. Comfort does not effect golf game, which was a concern prior to purchase. Would recommend using rather than a traditional cap.

True to size and maximum shade coverage A++. Highly recommended.

This hat is great and comes in sizes. I bought the size small and it ’s perfect for sitting outdoors at events. An added feature is that the chin strap is detachable. I may even get another color!

[ I like that it is reversible and it's a tidy trick flipping it. Like the color and the back brim does n't get all caught up in my backpack like a more rigid and broader brim hat I have does and drives me nuts. Good hat, great price. Packable.

[ Was looking for a more feminine Boonie that ’s as functional as my old unisex Boonie. Love the reversible feature- both sides are pleasing. Unsure of durability- seems to be more fashionable than functional.

[ 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.

5 Saba
[ Ordered this cap because I lost the exact cap a couple of weeks earlier, have had one for a couple of years and could not go through life without It!

[ Second purchase of this hat — great lightweight material, comfortable fit. This is my go to hat for hiking as well as a causal walk. Ideal for April through October

5 Mary P
[ 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.

5 Emer
[ 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.
