Waterproof hat in nice colors. Chin strap. Big brim to keep dry in the rain.

I was looking at this hat and the Seattle Rain Hat as a replacement for a non-OR rain hat whose membrane was delaminating. I chose the Helium over the Seattle because while I like the ability to flip up the brim on the Seattle, I don't like the use of Velcro for that (my old hat used magnets). Velcro catches on other garments, especially anything knit, gets dirty easily, and wears out quickly. I also wish the Helium used a 3-layer waterproof fabric, as the former owner of a 2-layer hat. I do like the reflective logos, how light the hat is, the wide brim, and (so far) the waterproofness of the Pertex Diamond Shield material. Four stars.

This hat is surprisingly light but does a great job.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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.

Keeps you dry in a deluge ... truly! And it's very packable.

Keeps the rain off, I use this at work when I'm stuck outside.

Hat certainly keeps out the brain. Difficult to wear when it's warm though. Not breathable at all.

I've had this hat for years and it's part of my essential rain gear for work and play. Solid material, fits great (L/ XL) and wide enough rain doesn't get into my collar.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Loved the hat, but it was too big for me in the sm/med size so it flapped around too much in the wind. If they sized them as L, M, S I would have kept it.

I had an older version of this hat but the colors are like the hat OLD. I went with the solid black and OR didn't disappoint. Great hat, nice lining to keep you warm on those cold rainy days. Nice inside lining keeps you from having to add a base beanie.

Yes, I've already tested this hat in a storm and was delighted that it performed as advertised. Quite unlike others I have that leaked around the brim in heavy rains.

First use in light rain and my head was wet in 30 mins

My old Outdoor Research Full Brim Rain Hat is so much better than the new one I ordered. So much better I sent the new one back.

I wore this stylish hat for 22 days backpacking in the Sierra Nevadas last summer. With the varying weather - sun, rain, etc. this hat was my go-to. I felt so stylish in it also. I got so many compliments.
