Customers say

Customers find the sun hat provides good sun protection, blocks the sun effectively, and appreciate its lightweight design and reasonable price point. The hat receives positive feedback for its appearance, with one customer noting it has no gawdy emblems or shiny hardware. While some customers say it fits nicely, others find it runs too big, and durability is a concern as the material breaks easily and the brim is flimsy. The hole size is particularly problematic, with customers noting the head hole is ridiculously big.

    This is one of my favorite hats for the beach. The band is a bit big, but I didn't mind. I like the wide brim to save myself from getting burned. The strong part is great, as you can just wear it around your neck and not have to worry about carrying it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Stop being ridiculous and just buy this hat.
    Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2016
    Size: One SizeColor: NaturalVerified Purchase
    I test drove this hat along Venice and Santa Monica beaches last weekend. I'm not entirely sure how I've lived without it.

    First of all, this is a true straw hat, so you'll get to enjoy that straw smell like you did when you were young visiting your Uncle Bob's farm up in Irwin, Nebraska.

    Secondly, you'll notice the drawstring. I've never owned a straw hat before, so this was all new to me. I thought it was just for show, but it also functions as a reliable way to keep your Billabong Men's Tides Natural Straw Hat from flying off into the crowd.

    Third, is the straw weaving. This hat is made in China, and they know weaving. When laying in the sun, I maneuvered this hat above my face. The weaving was just light enough to allow a fresh ocean breeze to flow through whilst blocking 99% of the harmful UV rays.

    Lastly would be the style points of the front "Tides" patching. I'd like to think of it as a black and white abstract open to interpretation. I suppose it could be "Tides" as stated in the item description, but couldn't it also be rows of racially diverse sharks swimming in unison? Maybe it's a grey-scale embroidery of a wild fire that burnt down a neighboring field of straw.

    You'll be wearing a modernized art piece once you stop thinking about buying this hat and finally do it.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great Hat! Could be brittle though
    Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2019
    Verified Purchase
    Hat looks just like it does in the photos, and it fits my head perfectly (results may vary lol) I have a somewhat large, "oval" shaped head and so a lot of hat don't fit me properly.

    One thing I really appreciate is that the headband isn't super thick, though it is soft and sufficient to keep the hat comfortable. Too many times the headband is thick and for anyone who actually wears these in hot climates that's the worst, not this one, and that's a big deal for me.

    I can definitely see what other people are saying about the material being brittle, and this hat might break on me at some point but I wouldn't say it's poor construction, just maybe more brittle straw. Save for a strong gust of wind I think it would hold up, just be a little more careful.

    I bought this hat for my husband. We bought the brown color which is basically light straw that’s been dyed. The very first time he wore it the straw cracked revealing light straw. The second time more cracked off. He’s worn it all of three times and it’s wrecked as more and more pieces break off. Don’t waste your money.

    I like this hat because of the wide brim. It protects me from direct sunlight and it’s comfortable to wear. The chin rope actually comes in very handy when a breeze pops up. I like the simple stying that doesn’t draw attention to itself. No gawdy emblems or shiny hardware. I like it.

    This hat breathes well, keeps the sun off me and has become a summer staple. I use the long strap to tighten the hats grip on my head when it's windy by putting the strap behind my head, putting the hat on, and then using the plastic piece to tighten the string behind my head and it is comfy and secure.

    Cappello di ottima qualità, il prezzo molto basso non rispecchia la grande qualità di costruzione e dei materiali. Purtroppo ho dovuto fare il reso poiché il packaging di amazon questa volta non è stato all'altezza e l'articolo mi è arrivato rotto. Ovviamente assistenza di amazon pronta a risolvere il problema ,fatto reso e ricevuto regolare rimborso .
