[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve wore other hats to block the sun. None compare to this! I love the neck cover and the adjustable strap. I thought it’d be too hot, but not at all! Very breathable.

I bought this hat to use when I go paddling. I've worn it on a few paddles now and I wouldn't go out without it. It's the perfect hat for being out on the water or for any outdoor activity where you want protection from the sun. The wide brim and neck cape definitely keep the sun from baking my face & neck. It helped keep the rain out of my face too when I got caught in a downpour on the way back to my launch point on my last paddle. It got soaked, but dried quickly after hanging it up. The adjustable strap on the back works like a regular baseball cap to size it to your head and the chin strap keeps it from flying off when the wind picks up. I love the foldable brim, which has a built-in spot where it can be folded and flattened for easy packing for travel. It hardly takes up any space. I'll buy another one in the future as a backup because it's such an awesome hat!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this hat. It has good coverage, is lightweight and breathable, and is secure. I got the largest size and fits pretty well. Only change I would make is making the neck cover about 1 inch longer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The bill stayed put while kayaking on a big, windy lake. And my head didn't overheat in the direct sumlight. Excellent (as long as it's not raining).

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Been looking for a nice hat with cap and this is fits the bill. My neck get burned easily and this solves reapplying sunblock. I had a fitted hat with a deployable cape but that gets hot during long hikes.This also has vents that does a better job than my other hat.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was in the market for a serious summer sun hat instead of the cheap ones available at all of the big box stores. After much research I decided on Sunday Afternoons Ultra Adventure Hat. I received it and I'm lovin' it! The first thing I noticed was the air I could feel circulating on the top of my bald head. Having vents on your hat are important, however, they usually allow burning sun rays to filter through. Usually I have to decide between being sunburned without a hat or hot with a hat. The Ultra Adventure hat has happily made that decision for me with its ultraviolet protection factor of 50+, including the mesh panels. No more polka dot sunburned head! Also, its so light weight you can forget you have it on. It is really the lightest hat I have owned. Its hard to believe it can do its job and be so light on your head. The downward sloping 3 ¼” brim shades my entire face and the cape keeps the sun off my neck, which is another great design feature. This hat gives protection to head, face, neck and ears without being obtrusive. Other features include a sunglass lock that holds your glasses in place. It works too. I have tried to shake my head to dislodge them and they stay put. Also, if taking a hat in a back pack is an issue for you, this hat folds in half at the brim and can be kept in your pocket. Without a doubt, this is the best hat on the market and worth every penny. I urge people to give this hat a try if you are shopping for the best hat out there. Since its guaranteed for life, it will probably be the last sun hat you need to buy!! You may want to buy more though as soon as everyone sees how cool it is!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Flips up, neck cover tucks in, doesn't hit my backpack in the back Folds flat, awesome color. I initially got a L/XL but it was too big - most folks probably can work with the S/M size.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My toddler has a hand me down of this brand of hat and I was always jealous of it so finally got my own and I’m so glad! The first day I wore it I sweat a lot and it didn’t leave a sweat ring like so many other hats do. Good coverage, lightweight, breathable! Awesome for this dad/farmer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've now worn this on a number of 10+ mile hikes in 80+ weather, and hours of watersports and hikes in 95 degree and 90% humidity in Florida. It does a great job of being lightweight and breathable. Excellent coverage. The slot for sunglasses holds quite well. I would buy a lighter color next time, darker hat can get hot in direct sunlight. The back flap does great staying out of the way when I have a pack that goes above my shoulders.
Happy Hiker
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this hat after losing my last one on the trail. While it may look a little dorky, it is so worth it. I often forgot I was wearing it because it's so light and ventilates well. Perfectly shaded my face and neck. Some people say the back isn't long enough, but for me it worked fine. With a sun shirt, it goes well down past the neck of the shirt.
Emer
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a large head; one size fits all hats do not work for me and sometimes hats billed as large don't work. But this hat fits fine with L/XL. I think it looks better on me than a ball cap and shields the sun better. I haven't tried it in wind yet.
SC Lowcountry Hiker
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I burn easily so a hat is an absolute must for me for long hikes. Most hats I have tried have been a trade off between protection and comfort in the heat. Did an 18 mile hike in post-rain humidity, average temp 82 degrees, mix of shade and sun, in near-coastal sc woodland. Almost didn't notice this hat, no itch, breathability excellent. I like the back flap a lot, most hats hit into any hiking packs and this one does not. Sunglasses holder kept them on top of my head for the 15 miles or so I didn't wear them. Light breeze and hat did not budge due to the comfortable adjustment strap. Will hike beach at some point and see what a stiff breeze does but I think this will hold up well. Styling is surprisingly not all that goofy, just looks like an obvious hiking hat.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been wearing my new Ultra Adventure Hat non-stop. Nice and lightweight, great sun protection for face, neck and EARS! Also styled with a little bit of flare. Love the orchid color and purchased a gray one as a back up. Great find!
PocosDad
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This looked to be a great hat for protecting me while birding - plenty of sun protection by the brim and neck drape, dark under-brim, lightweight and fits well. And the folding brim is makes this a very packable hat. But one feature that they don't specifically mention in the advertising made it unsuitable for me - there are reflective strips next to the ventilation panels in the back. While that might be a nice safety feature for most people when you're walking on a road in the dark, it has the disadvantage of flashing in sunlight which is probably going to frighten some of the birds that I'm trying to get close to. (Yes, I know it's behind me, but I'm constantly swiveling around while looking for birds.) For what it's worth, the fabric on the crown is so thin that if you have as little hair on your head as I do, you'll need to spray it with repellent to keep the bugs from biting through it. A good hat for most people, but just not for my purposes.
