  • Cannot be beat, best cooling hat
Size: One Size Color: Teal Leaf
If I could give this more stars I absolutely would! the fit is spot on, protects my face from the sun, its thin and light weight and it keeps me cool without getting the hat wet! I have bought several of these because of how well work as I spend a lot of time outside in the summer. They are not expensive and they are absolutely worth your money and work better than I even imagined! ... show more

  • Bucket hat to wear outdoors that’s versatile
Size: One Size Color: Navy
Bought this bucket hat to wear to the pool this summer and it worked out just fine. It has two snaps that you can raise part of the brim up and then it’s got a chin strap that can be cinched down to your throat if it gets windy out and you’re afraid to have my blow away it’s very lightweight. It folds up very easily for travel and works great to protect my head when I’m out in the sun, well-made and I think it should last for quite some time. ... show more

  • Decent hat, better dry than wet.
Size: One Size Color: Khaki
I just got this hat and have taken it out a couple of times so far, temps in the high 80's, humidity around 50%, and very sunny. Wetting it down seems like a waste of time. It was completely dry in under an hour and left little ability for the hat to wick sweat off your brow. This feature might work better in a more arid climate but be prepared to wet it down frequently. Also, the brim is very floppy and heavy after wetting it down. Snapping the sides up in a cowboy hat style gives the brim more rigidity but reduces the sun-protection a wide brim hat offers. I have a pretty good sized melon and it fit me well without being too tight. I wouldn't recommend for smaller sized heads and definitely not for children. I preferred to wear it dry, where the hat could absorb sweat and the brim wasn't so heavy and floppy. It's thinner material than most baseball hats and does a good job of reflecting sunlight and keeping you cool. You can also fold or ball this thing up and stick it in a pocket or pack and it'll snap back into shape when you need it. At about $20, it's a solid, versatile, summer hat that'll keep the sun off. ... show more

  • Amazing Waterproof Cooling Bucket Hat - Comfortable, Functional, and Stylish!
Size: One Size Color: Sea Palm
I recently purchased a waterproof cooling bucket hat, and it has quickly become my go-to accessory for outdoor activities. This hat offers the perfect combination of comfort, functionality, and style, making it a must-have for anyone who enjoys spending time in the sun. First and foremost, the cooling feature is incredible. The hat is made from innovative, moisture-wicking fabric that helps keep my head cool and dry, even on the hottest days. It effectively wicks away sweat and provides a refreshing cooling sensation, making it ideal for hiking, gardening, or simply lounging by the pool. The waterproof feature is also a game-changer. The hat repels water and dries quickly, which is perfect for unexpected rain showers or when I'm near water. It keeps me protected and comfortable without weighing me down, thanks to its lightweight design. Comfort-wise, this hat excels. It has a soft, breathable lining that feels comfortable against my skin. The wide brim provides ample shade and UV protection for my face and neck, which is essential for preventing sunburn and staying safe under the sun. In terms of style, the hat is both practical and fashionable. It comes in a variety of colors and patterns to suit different preferences. I opted for a neutral color that goes well with any outfit, but there are bold options available for those who want to make a statement. The adjustable drawstring ensures a secure fit, even on windy days, and the hat is easy to pack and carry with me wherever I go. It's become an essential part of my outdoor gear, and I receive compliments on its style and functionality whenever I wear it. Overall, this waterproof cooling bucket hat has exceeded my expectations. It’s comfortable, functional, and stylish, providing excellent sun protection and cooling comfort. Whether you're hiking, fishing, or enjoying a day at the beach, I highly recommend this hat. Five stars! ... show more

  • Good quality hat
Size: One Size Color: Navy
I bought this hat for roughly $20 and at the same time purchased one of the other Mission brand baseball cap style cooling hats so I have been able to compare both of these hats. This bucket hat isn't huge, and for my big head it is a little on the tighter side but still perfectly comfortable for me. Could be an issue for some though I imagine most people will be fine as I know my head is bigger than average and the fit doesn't bother me. As to the cooling powers of the hat, I mostly use it on hot days when I am lounging in the pool to shade my face and keep me cool as I work on my tan. I dunk it in the water then slap it on my head. The only part of this hat that is going to cool you is the top and the inner rim that goes around your head. So for as much water as this hat soaks up, it really doesn't do much but run off and provide shade like any other hat. It stays cool for what seems a short amount of time but it does help. If you are on the go, I would keep a spray bottle handy so you can keep misting the top and inside every hour or so and get a lot more mileage out of it. Overall, it is a good hat but I feel the ball cap style hat is better for day to day. That one soaks up your sweat better than this one and if you do start to overheat with it on, take it off and it'll cool you down again once you put it back on after a few minutes thanks to the sweat retention. Both benefit from keeping a spray bottle nearby, and I do consider that a must have if you are trying to get these things to cool you down, but if I could pick only one I would go with the cap but luckily the world doesn't work that way so I can use the cap at work and then this bucket hat around the house and pool. This cap is definitely a bigger help in rain as well thanks to the wider brim. While it isn't perfect it is still worth buying just remember to have realistic expectations. An hour of good cooling effect after a good soaking and maybe you can get two hours in shade under ideal conditions. Every person is different too, so that is just my experience. Regardless, it is a worthwhile purchase and I am happy with my Mission hats. ... show more

  • Too large!!

I loved this hat; but even though I have a fairy large head for a woman, it was way too big! Mine had a "s/m" tag/ sizing on it still too large.
