Great summer hat. Nice mesh side panels keep you head cooler than a all cloth model hat. Nice sweat band and nice brim shape. I've been wearing it every day since I got it. That says it all.

I have four of these hats! One in four different colors, which coincide with the four different "Best Uses" I mentioned in this review. The Swift Cap is super nice, fits great, and looks very nice/sporty. I highly recommend!

This is my favorite all-around hat. I have 3 of them and wear them constantly. The fit is shallower than most hats (at least on my big head) but is not enough to change my recommendation. The Swift is super light and super breathable. Hands down the best hat out there (along with the Revel for the rainy days).

I start to use the this hat as soon as the weather warms up,and as soon as i need sun protection.Invaluable when hill walking/trekking. The fit is great,the peak not too long.The fact that it can be washed is a great benefit.

I bought two of these hats last year for my son & I. We use them whenever we head to the outdoors. They are comfortable & breathable. My son's hat had some stitching come loose last fall and I contacted OR and they sent us a replacement cap. Good customer support!!

I hope OR brings back the orange color; our search and rescue team uses it for added visibility. This hat also fits really well under a climbing helmet.

I love this cap, they are the only ones I wear! It fits my head without any wrinkling or bunching up in the back, not to mention it's super lightweight, form fitting, and when you get caught in the rain it dries super quick. My only gripe? You need one in a brown color. I have eleven swift caps all told and only one comes close to a brown color, it's more a coral, which is now getting worn and frayed, but that one is not offered any more.

I Love this hat! I forgot a hat on our vacationto Maine in July, and purchased this at an outdoor store in Bar Harbor and am so pleased with it, its lightweight , breathable and super comfortable. I have a smallish noggin and most unisex hats are too big and slide down my forehead,. Previously , with other hats, Wearing sunglasses only complicated things further bc they push the brim of the hat up and then it blows off my head. if there's the tiniest bit of a breeze , the only thing that holds it on is my ponytail or messy bun . However , No worries with this hat , it hasn't blown off my head once and I can wear sunglasses comfortably with it. Buying a second one today to keep at our beach home, so I'm not bringing my original one back and forth.

absolutely love it! The only thing is, since it only comes in one size "fits all", the top panel is a bit loose on my head and has a tendency to float a tad bit on each side of my head. I've seen it worn by my friend who has a slightly bigger head than mine, and it fits him like a glove. Would've loved to have the same fit on me.

Love this hat, it's lightweight, airy, and comfortable. The only reason it's not 5 stars is that the excess adjustment strap sometimes slips out of the hatband and dangles

Love this hat, super lightweight & so comfortable that I forget I'm even wearing it. Great colour. Only giving 4 stars because I had to tighten it all the way to fit on my head (didn't think I had a freakishly small head, but maybe I do!)

Use the Swift hat mainly for walking and hiking. Fits well and snuggly .......its easily adjustable. The hat is very lightweight which is excellent on hot days. And its stay on my head even in a stiff breeze.

Was looking for a low profile, light weight hat for all my outdoor activities. Ordered this hat and loved the way it fit. Unfortunately, I'm a female with a smaller size head and the hat was barely able to tighten enough to fit my head. Would love if the hat was available in more of a women's fit or a smaller size.

Just got this hat a few weeks ago, and I've worn it so much! It's super lightweight which makes it awesome for running, hiking, and just wearing around everyday. It can fold up/pack up small too, which makes it great for bringing along when I am wearing a bike helmet.

The cap is very light and comfortable to wear. It dries quickly and has enough of a brim to shade sunlight and protect from rain. Most trucker caps I have to wear on the last two dots This hat has enough adjustment to fit my head just fine.

The best hat for hiking and running out there. I have several of them in different colors. I've become a hero for recommending them to my friends. This hat blocks the sun rays and is well ventilated. This color hat meets the legal requirements for hunting big game in New York State.

I had the gray version and lost it on an airplane. Really nice light weight, sun proofing, breathable hat for any outdoor activity: hiking, climbing, boating, working. Only beef if the buckle wasn't reliable when clipping it to by backpack.
