Sun Bucket Hat

The Outdoor Research Sun Bucket Hat protects your head from the sun on bright bluebird days in the outdoors. With UPF 50+ SolarShield fabric defending your melon from the sun's rays, the Sun Bucket hat offers protection that no sunscreen can touch. Outdoor Research gave this summer hiking hat a Coolmax headband to wick the sweat away and a removable drawcord to keep this cap firmly planted on your head if the wind picks up on the trail.

Comfortable and amazing bucket hat!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this hat. I wear it almost every time I go outside and it helps keep sun off my face and neck. Would definitely recommend this product.

Adorable and functional!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for our two week camping trip and it did not disappoint. We were exploring in 100 degree weather around Moab. This hat was breathable and kept my ears and face from getting a sun burn. The adjustable strap was great when we went off-roading at Finns and Things. It gets a little windy in a UTV. Great purchase.

Great hat

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my second Sun Bucket hat. The first one I got was a size small and although it fit my head, it fit better on my granddaughter who grabbed it every time we went out for a walk. I don't have to tell her to wear her hat anymore. I got myself the same hat but in a medium size. It ended up being a better size for me.

I’m a woman with a larger head than normal, so most one-size women’s hats don’t fit me. This hat is perfect! I’m in Mexico right now, where it’s beautifully hot and sunny, and this hat is a lifesaver in protecting my head and face (and a little bit of neck in back. I think I may buy a second one, just to be safe!

Would definitely buy again!

I wear this Sun Bucket hat for protection. I purchased the Medium and it fits perfectly. The hat is lightweight, has under the chin straps for windy days. Keeps my head dry in rain. I have quite a few hats for different seasons from Outdoor Research and love them all.

Works great!

Works good. Gives good sun protection and comfortable to wear. A little large but the next size would probably be to small. Overall excellent product.

Dealing with long term exposure

The hat offers great protection for the eyes and head from the sun. Vision is very good when details matter with or without sunglasses

Good Sun Protection

I was looking for hat that would provide sun protection, but not a huge brim. The brim is a good size, big enough, not too big. The brim does drop down so it feels like there is a little lost visibility, particularly on peripheral vision, but I think that's what you get with sun protection. Also, I haven't taken it it on a strenuous hike, but it seems to stay relatively cool when I have used it in strong sun.

Here's where my search for a sun hat to protect my bare scalp from the Southern California sun during my three months of chemo infusions ended. I wore a Size XL when I had a full head of hair, so I was concerned that my Outdoor Research pewter Sun Bucket would be loose. OR made them as smart as the brains below with an elastic cord that adjusts for a snug fit and a chinstrap. The brim has the right width for 360-degree protection without casting an umbrella shadow like my Tilly sun hat. The Sun Bucket is a respectable hat that the seniors never ask me to remove inside a church. I'll definitely continue to wear it after my hair grows back. I intend to order some for my Los Angeles friends this Christmas once I figure out a tactful way to ask for their sizes. Cancer has worked better than social media at reconnecting me with a lifetime bounty of friends whom I will never take for granted. I'm seeing more of them in person, outdoors, hat on.

All around great hat

I haven't had it long enough to know how it holds up but so far so good.
