Works great, but bill is small

I trekked across Costa Rica with this hat and it protected my neck and (bald) head really well. The only complaint is that the bill is shorter than most conventional caps. As a consequence, I did get some burn on the tip of my nose.

Sun protection FTW!

Great coverage, easy adjustability, simple to attach and remove neck coverage but I leave it on. Could possibly be more breathable on the really hot days, but the sun protection is amazing! Love it for trail running, 14ers, paddle boarding, and so many other things. Reasonably priced for the amount of use! Accommodates my big head and my ponytail out the back!

Awesome cap and recommend buy :)

Bought two of these hats in different colours and happy I did. Quality constructed, light weight fast dry material with breathable mesh siding. Just came back from a very hot vacation in the US Virgin Islands and the cap packed easily and provided great sun protection coverage where I needed it most. I recommend this cap :)

My favorite hat- So versatile

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my 2nd one and love it. It's great to run in without the back attached, I used it to keep the sun off me on Denali, and keep the bug at bay during bug season. It's comfy, breaths well, stays on and looks great!. I highly recommend.

Lightweight, packable, protective!

This is likely the 10th outdoor research hat I have bought with previous hats being in wide brim style. I saw this hat and wanted to try it, and I have really liked moving to a super compact, lightweight product that provides excellent sun coverage for my ginger skin! The hat as well made, and I'm not sure why people think it is difficult to remove and deploy the neck hood, you simply feed your head between the chinstrap and the fabric on the back and then connect to snaps on the front. Couldn't be easier! I recommend this hat to anyone looking for a full sun, coverage solution and a super lightweight package 2.9oz/84g. PS, it pairs perfectly with hooded sun shirts which are popular.

Perfect for desert running

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wore pacing at an ultra in Death Valley, and some long hot runs, worked great

great sun hat!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's very comfortable and protects my neck well. It's a bit dorky looking but does the job. I really like the fact that you can remove the neck cape and just wear it like a normal hat.

Great sun hat

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was a little confused with how the sun cape attached, but I figured it out and the result is a great little sun hat. I am quite satisfied with it.

I bought this hat to hike Mount Adams, WA

Hat is comfortable, breathable, and provides protection.from the sun. However, when in a snow environment, the reflection still requires sunscreen on your face and front of neck.

Best Breatheable Sun Protection

I had a melanoma removed from my ear 5 years ago. Since then I've been experimenting with all sorts of sun protection hats, while also completing dozens of backpacking trips including the Tour du Mont Blanc. First, I like the idea of not having to slather sunscreen all over, then washing it all off etc. Though this hat will not be fashionable on the streets of Paris, it's a killer tool for protecting your head and neck from the sun. It's also somewhat flexible - you can remove the neck protection, you can cinch it down in the wind, and so on.
