Nice hat--waterproof as advertised.

This hat works just as advertised--100% waterproof. Fabric seems durable the hat stood up well to getting beat around on a recent backpacking trip. However, it's too warm to wear above 70 degrees or so for any length of time. In short--awesome hat for cold wet weather, but too hot for summer.

Great hat! Comfortable with lots of shade. I don't know how well it repels water yet. I don't find it to be hot. Brim is wide enough so you don't want to wear it in high winds.
