I bought this for myself for travel and it will be perfect.  It's nice and lightweight, so it will not be too hot.  It also has a strap so that I don't lose it.  The brim seems sturdy without being heavy. It will be easy to pack.  I bought my husband the Bora Bora Booney II and he thought it was perfect too. The guys version is a little different and there are mesh vents in it.  The price was good too compared to what I have seen these hats for.
