Review on Connectyle Outdoor Mesh Sun Hat Wide Brim UV Sun Protection Hat Fishing Hiking Hat by Michael Sharp

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Worked in a rainforest, kept our necks unburnt and our heads dry.

We ordered these for wandering around Puerto Rico. We burn pretty easily, so we needed hats with brims, but we were going to humidity central and needed a little breathability. We also hiked around the El Yunque Rainforest, where it, surprisingly, rained. (We're from Phoenix, AZ, where it's usually not rainy or humid. Usually.)These hats did exactly what we needed them to do. They kept our necks and faces from burning. The mesh top let air flow so that we weren't drowning in sweat. And even though the hats got soaked in the rain, our heads stayed fairly dry. (OK, so it wasn't a downpour or anything, more like an aggressive mist with a few drops in it, but I live in a desert, so I'm going to call it rain.)These pack pretty well. They are crushable, so they came out of the suitcase wearable. They dried quickly and weren't unpleasant even when wet. The chin straps seem to be attached to the hat well. At least ours didn't break in the wind, and it was occasionally very windy.No one mistook us for locals, though that might have been because we were also wearing Puerto Rico shirts with frogs ("coquis") on them. And carrying backpacks. And speaking this weird, horribly accented Spanglish that the locals were too nice to correct us on.

Pros
  • The Connectyle Outdoor Mesh Sun Hat is highly portable, making it the perfect accessory for outdoor concert events
Cons
  • The hat may not be suitable for people with certain facial structures or features
