Customer Reviews Outdoor Research Sunbriolet Sun Hat

Those that are fair-skinned are always looking for a good wide-brimmed sunhat that holds its shape.This hat does exactly what you need.

I do not have a large head but bought large because my sister already owned hat in large. Glad I got large so hat probably runs small.

The fabric is thicker than I expected, but it still breathes well and keeps the heat off my head. It's perfect for fieldwork and would be good for boating as well. It's much less dorky than most sun hats I've seen.

The Sombriolet Sun Hat is an excellent choice for protection from the sun, looking stylish and comfortable wear. It is the best hat in its category that I have owned. A must to have.

I love the hat. Ordered two online via the size guide and the fit was perfect. The Sombriolet Sun Hat keeps my dark hair covered and doesn't feel hot. I love the strap and how it keeps my hat with me, especially when it's windy! I also like using the strap as a crossbody option to hold my hat when I'm not wearing it on my head. Had a few questions for Customer Service at the beginning and Ryan was super friendly and helpful...great first face to the company!

I'm out trail walking nearly every day. This sun hat provides great sun protection while being very light, comfortable and adjustable.

bought this hat for a river rafting trip in july. it was the absolute best! stayed in great shape even when hit with water in the rapids. so glad i got it!

This is not the hat you want, it's the hat you need. Skin cancer and sun damage are real. This hat breathes well and has a good wide brim. 4.5 stars I still prefer my boonie hat for short sun jaunts, but for anything else, from now on I'm taking this bad boy with me. The brim is a little larger than i would like, but hey, I'm 50 years old and choose sensibility over vanity. You will look like an Aussie tourist, practice your accent.

Kept me cool for a week in sunny Greece.

Excellent protection from the sun and little rain. The only downside is simply that it is hard to store it in your backpack when not in use!

Good, functional hats are hard to come by especially if one wants them to look semi-decent while serving its intended purpose well. This hat has a sufficiently wide brim, so that it shades the front of my face as well as the sides and my neck in most situations. I found this hat to be relatively weather resistant, although I have not yet tested it in full rain. The strap is easily adjustable and helps keep the hat on your head in at least mild to moderate wind.

Got this for my brother, an avid fisherman, who has had several skin pre-cancers. He loves it and wants another one that he can keep clean for recreational use.

Love that it is so lightweight. Brim is a good size; keeps sun off face yet stays up out of way when taking a photograph. Does bump the back of my pack a bit and when I'm tired it bugs me but....nothing is perfect! Wishing it would "grub up" some, hard to make it not look clean and new! I REALLY wish the logo wasn't so big and front and center...tacky. But it does what I need it to do and I am glad to have it!

Used for hiking

Another fine product designed and produced by OR!

I looked at several of these types of hats and had a hard time deciding but am very happy with this one.

This hat is my favorite! The air flow through the hat is great, really helps in summer heat.

I use this for all outdoor activities, but really bought it for the golf course. Excellent coverage, light weight and just what I needed.

Golf hunting and recreation outdoors

Easy to keep in the car and use for sun protection. Looks like it will be a long term favorite.

The sombriolet sun had in one of the best work wear purchases I have made. I work on and next to the water in SW Florida ALL DAY with no shade. Compaired to any other sun have worn the sumbriolet out performs by miles. The top of my head stays cool. The wind wont blow it off as easy with the adjustable elastic band. Speaking of hats blowing, it floats! I made the mistake of ordering a blue one so it was hard to keep an eye on it drifting away... next one will be a lighter color. I have owned this hat for a year and it has held up. Most year will not last long in my environment. I didn't expect it but I get a ton of compliments as Well!

Hat, fits and functions well. Looks good

My wife happens to hate this style of hat, but the joke was on her when I avoided sun burns on my neck, face and ears whereas she didn't.

We vacation in Bahamas every year and it's the best hat for beach combing and overall sun protection.
