I wear a 7 3/4" baseball hat and the L/XL fits my enormous melon perfectly. Looks great, breathes well, packs easily. Perfect product.

This has quickly become my favorite hat, EVER. The material is so light and flexible so it squishes into jacket pockets easily when I am not wearing it. I got it because I often take photos outdoors in the sun and the brim is short and flexible so it doesn't get in the way when I hold my camera up to my face. The chin strap has also prevented me from loosing this in very windy conditions and it's nice to strap it onto my backpack or hang it from the headrest in my car. It's a nice functional hat and the brim has held its shape well. I have washed it in the machine washer in a mesh bag and it came out totally fine. I have worn this on long sweaty hikes 6-12 miles and I don't feel like I am overheating inside. It's decently breathable compared to other hats I have tried. I love the color and have received many compliments! At first I was worried the Offline greenish/yellow would be a bit too bold but it has grown on me and now I want a second Sinsolo Hat just in case I lose this one.

The lightest bucket hat to date. Ive tried Kangol, Patagonia, even sweat to death under my Black Diamond canvas bucket when I was into their skis but the Sinsolo is the best by far! Very very light, very very packable. Get one.....or two!

This is one of my favorite bucket hats I've ever had. It's absolutely amazing for traveling, because I've had it packed and squished in a bunch of my backpacks and luggages for more than a day, and when I take it out, it still holds its form and shape. It's really light on my head that you really only feel the waistband, the drawstring is useful for windy occasions, and it really does help with sun protection. I think the design is versatile enough that you can wear it repeatedly, as the logo is very versatile. The two small downsides are that you will need to hand wash this, and it doesn't come rain proof, but spraying it with some Nikwax fixed the latter.

Stylish and lightweight, this has been my go to hat for summer activities. Has been especially solid on boating trips since this won't fly off my head like a regular hat. Dries quick as well.

This hat is really good! I don't usually wear hats but since I am exercising outside and want to protect my face from the sun, this hat is really good. I like how lightweight it feels on my head, as if there is nothing. It feels well ventilated. The brim's material feels very good quality and is almost like a mesh so easy to clean! The design of the hat is a plus also because it looks very good even while wearing casually. The velvet sand color is the best one in my opinion. I would definitely buy this in more colors!

I run warm but got black anyways since it goes with everything. I like this version better than an earlier one I have since the brim seems to be wider and I like the retention cord since it gets windy up at 11,100' where I was today.

I can mold the hat however I want to suit my needs, it's light and compact, can fold it in my pocket with tout being scared to ruin it and it covers my nose with shade. Love it

Lightweight, comfortable sunhat. Perfect for having in your pack and small enough to put in a pocket for those moments when you may or may not need a sunhat. Fit and material allow it to breath nicely on warm days. Comfortable and light enough to provide great sun protection without the weight and bulk of other sun hats.

I've always loved bucket hats and finally was able to get a L/XL when it restocked! I'm a size 7 3/8 for reference and it fit super well. The new version comes with a chin cord which really helps keep the hat in place. It's super light and very packable. Though not waterproof, I applied a DWR detergent and worn it in the rain a couple of times and it really held up. Would recommend hand washing it rather than machine washing it.

I have the women's version (called the "Sinsola"), that I purchased in spring or summer of 2023.
This hat is flattering and attractive only from the back (at least on me); but it is a very functional piece, and protects my face from the sun, so I have learned to live with the aesthetics.
The chin strap is absolutely vital, so that it stays on in windy conditions. Even though my head is on the smaller side (especially going between a shaved head and short pixie cuts), I did need to size up in order to achieve better sun protection and more shade on the face, because the larger size has a wider brim. The smaller size definitely looked more attractive.
I would like to see renderings of this hat that offer a more flattering, feminine aesthetic, and much more shade on the face.
Side snaps and a larger brim would be helpful.
I lucked out and scored a darker, greenish-blue color, but the pastel versions for the women have been tremendously unappealing. I would like to see some nice neutral, earthy colors that are much better looking.

Seems great. Impressively light. Brim is floppy but I like that.
I am concerned about washing it. Spot clean only? It IS a hiking hat and I'm going to sweat in it. So from what I understand, it's gonna stink but I'm not gonna be able to wash it? I guess I won't wear it hiking. Seems kinda silly but whatever.

Love the material and color and the fit. The downside is the actual sun coverage, which is not enough. The brim is so small. Had to return

I have the sinsola in desert salt, and I was extremely excited to get my hands on it as it's a great looking hat that performs well. I was dismayed to see that the hat can't be washing in a machine, nor dry cleaned. When I called and asked, the customer service suggested 'wiping with a damp cloth'. Hugely impractical to clean a sweaty hat with dirt stains.

My head is 24" around and although this hat is "L/XL" I found the fit a bit snug. It's flimsy - I guess you may say "light" if you're backpacking - but the brim is wrinkled which makes it look really sad. Not worth 60.00 IMO.

Im a big fan of bucket hats in general and added the offlime version of this hat to my collection. I like a appearance, material, and overall feel off the hat but the design could use some adjustments. For me personally, the depth is too much where it sits too low down on your forehead if worn tight, alongside with the downward angle of the brim can slightly obscure your vision. I would suggesting a slightly more shallow bucket and more flared brim for future iterations before recommending to other people
