Marmot PreCip Safari Hat

Nice, waterproof hat

By Ranked #102 - Hats June 20, 2009

I have come to really like this hat. There are several features not mentioned in the description:
-There is an elastic adjustment on the back allowing you to adjust how tight the hat is
-The chinstrap is removable
-If you flip the sides of the hat up, they will stay there (due to small magnets)

This hat is indeed waterproof, and the brim is not too floppy. Interestingly (at least to me) is the fact that the inner headband is not cotton, but instead is a wicking polyester. It is soft, but does not retain any moisture. While it is nice to have a hat that does not become drenched with sweat, this also means that the hat does not do quite as good a job of absorbing sweat (so more may run down your face).
