Men's Wide Brim

quality is good. it's not going to last forever but that's typical of a straw hat. I should still get at least 2 seasons out of it with nearly daily wear during the summer. keeps the sun off the face and keeps me cool. saves me from the direct sunlight and haven't gotten hardly any sun from wearing while out mowing the yard for a few hours.

I was originally going to use this straw hat for a beach party but it's become an everyday wear for sunny days. Yes it is light weight, comfortable, and the brim does add protection from the sun. I pair this hat with sunglasses for the added look and additional protection against crows feet. This hat is fashionable. The unique one size fits truly is that. It's fun to see people request to try it on. The black draw string with it's wooden fastener is adorable and effective for keeping this hat on my head during gusts of wind. The brim does take a little getting use too, you have to adjust when opening refrigerators at stores or you might ding your hat, but this hat is strong and has withstand the forces of a refrigerator doors so far. I enjoy my afternoons lounging about on my staircase or at the park with this hat whilst siping my beverage. When I do hit the beach I'll be a pro at rocking this straw hat.

Fits my XXL head perfectly. If you need an XXL hat - confirmed by measuring your head - this is the hat. It was shipped in a sturdy box unlike some of the others that were in plastic bags. However, the brim was bent because the box was too small. I was able to add weight on the brim on a flat surface with books and towels to protect the weaving and after a day the brim flattened out. The straw is extremely dry so this hat is a bit fragile but it worked for a week at the beach. I wouldn’t expect it to last more than one summer and you definitely don’t want to bang it around or bump or bend it while in a vehicle or handle it roughly.

This hat does an excellent job of providing sun protection but it will crumple at the drop of a 'hat'. Seriously, a nice hat, and a great price point, but it loses its shape as soon as it's exposed to water. If you need a week's worth of sun protection at the beach this is a great purchase. However, if you want it to last a bit longer, this isn't the hat for you.

About the right size for working around our 5-acre Colorado high-plains homestead. Any bigger and the wind might take it either to Kansas or Utah; any smaller and I wouldn't feel that my face, neck, and shoulders were getting enough shade. There's enough ventilation to cool my head when there's a breeze, but it's not so see-through that my mostly hairless scalp will age way faster than time alone is aging me. I feel that the interior "sweat" band is a little heavy to be ideal for my tastes, but it does hold well without being too terribly hot. I'm glad that there's not a black band around the outside as well to gather the sun's energy. Between heat, sun, sweat, and sometimes rain, and the sheer amount of time I spend wearing a sombrero like this while mowing, tending garden, cleaning up bio debris, burning it, moving and dividing irises, repairing irrigation systems, etc., I go through these hats quickly - and it ain't about fashion. Therefore, they get treated as "disposable" and are thrown into the firepit when the brims rot off or big holes show up in their tops. So I bought a second one of these as sure as I knew that this first one was acceptable. But if they were any more (in cost) I wouldn't be buying this one; I'd be buying another that I thought I could wear, beat the tarnation out of, discard, and replace. On the other hand, if you do live a Brooklyn surf lifestyle, this hat may still do you quite well, as it's real handsome. Or so says my bride.

Great value and product. Will buy again

Hat was squished into the wrong box. The hat is larger in depth than the flat box it was placed into. Which caused the straw material to break in numerous places breaking down the stability of this beautiful headwear. Change the packaging and you will have yourself a stellar product and satisfied customer(s).

This hat has a sturdy strong feel to it when you pick it up with your hand and place it on your head. Nothing thin or cheap like some others. Has a good chin string with slide that holds in place. The head band feels good as you place the had on your head and holds well to your head. I like the wide brim to protect me from the sun. Compared to other straw hats I have had over the years this one is the best I have ever had. This hat is a well made hat that I should be using for several years.

Bought this as a gift for my boyfriend and he loves it.Great for sun shade and decently durable. Once it wears out I’ll definitely be repurchasing.Love that the texture is not itchy or uncomfortableWould recommend

I think the hat has potential, but I can't tell because it arrived crushed and warped beyond repair. It was just chucked in a big box to ship (which also got damaged). It needs to be packed better, because man, what a waste.

I can’t fault this hat, good fit and good shape. It was purchased for my sons cosplay and he’s very happy with it. Quick delivery. 👍

Cheap found at a dollar store few days later. Not worth it

Well made, sturdy straw hat with a wide brim, ideal for gardening on sunny days. Ventilation is adequate and the adjustable chin strap works well and can be stored on top of the hat, if not required. Would be helpful if the manufacturer listed the UPF rating.
