Being outdoors much of the time, I needed a hat that was light-weight, breathable, and stylish.  I found all three qualities in this brimmed hat by Columbia.  The brim is about 3.5 inches wide, so it nicely covers the ears and forehead from sun exposure.  For those hat have eyeglasses or hearing aids, the brim will keep water drops off!.  It is not hot whatsoever, so it can be worn in even the most brutal heat without cooking one's noggin!  I have received many complements on the hat from people of all ages - even teens think it is "cool".  It is certainly a huge leap of quality and utility over my previous baseball cap.

This hat comes in several sizes.  I think it best that one try it on first before ordering to get the right fit. There is no chin strap, so you want to get a proper fit so that wind will not lift it off one's head.

Quality product from a trusted manufacturer.
