I can say Ive spent late nights on looking for a real sun hat that will really protect my children from the scorching sun and I can say this one really has it all, wide brim on the front which really gives lots of shade in the face and a nice cover for the nape and not to say the least the quality is really awesome, to add, it has an adjustable strap for the growing circumference of the head that you can tighten or loosen to prevent from coming off the head, bought 2 of this, one for my 7 year old a large size shes 44 inches tall and a medium for my 5 year old and hes 36 inches tall. By the way at first Im having second thought because it seems pricey but its worth it!
