About this product
A breathable wide-brim fishing hat in quick-drying, water-resistant fabric with a neck flap for long days on open water.
Sun on open water comes from above and off the surface, which is why a cap is never quite enough. This hat answers with a wide brim all round and a flap for the neck.
The fabric is quick-drying and water-resistant: light rain and boat spray bead off, and a dunked hat is wearable again in minutes.
It is breathable and light enough for all-day wear; one customer specifically praises how cool the neck flap keeps him.
The supplier publishes no UPF rating, so we do not print one: it is a physical-shade hat, and a good one.

A long day of fishing is mostly a long day of sun, and the parts that burn are the parts a baseball cap ignores: ears, jaw, and the back of the neck bent over a rod. A wide brim plus a neck flap is the old, correct answer, and this hat keeps that answer light and breathable enough to actually wear.

The fabric is the modern half: quick-drying and water-resistant, so drizzle and spray bead off, sweat wicks through, and the hat comes back from a soaking in minutes rather than hours.

We keep the claims honest: the supplier publishes no UPF number, so we advertise the shade, not a lab figure. What we can pass on is a customer who calls it light, breathable and cool exactly where the flap sits, and who is planning to buy more.
