I've been buying SA hats for many years, and this is the first one that I didn't like. It provides decent sun protection and I like the ventilation. However, as a kayaker, I frequently paddle in the wind, and that's where this model has some issues. On calm days, it's fine, but in moderate winds and above, the back flap makes an unholy racket...very distracting and a bit unsafe. It's surprising--the fabric in the back isn't even as long as on some of the other models. I really wanted to like it, but I'll be choosing another style next time.

Best Hat On The Market
This is my 5th Sunday afternoon hat I've bought in the past 10 years. I still have them all. You can't buy a better hat!

Best Sun Hat Ever!!!
My last hat was purchased 20 plus years ago- I’m still wearing it! I thought it was time to buy a 2nd in another color. My dermatologist was shocked when I said I’d lived in CA for 30 years- I credit my Sundayafternoons sun hat! She was very impressed with my facial skin being in such great condition. Thank you! There’s no substitute!

Hat Protects Well From The Desert Sun
Bought the hat at a discounted price with another hat. Provides excellent sun coverage and the quality looks fine.

Love This Hat!
I bought this hat for a trip to Utah mighty 5 national parks. It was upper 80s when we were there and this hat was perfect! It is very lightweight and kept me protected from the sun while not making me warm. I loved how packable it is, also. It’s also really cute!
