I purchased this hat as a gift for my sister. She walks for exercise, and I was concerned about skin damage and cancer, because she doesn't wear a hat. I love this hat because it is lightweight with a UPF of 40. And I may have missed this in the description, but it also floats. My sister wants to river raft and this would be perfect. Now what the picture didn't show is that the hat rolls to easily fit in your backpack or tote. Something I love in a hat. Great craftsmanship!
