DHC Outdoor Men’s 1 Piece Big Brim Boonie Hat with Nylon Chin Cord

This hat, made in Srilanka, NOT China, is well made and does a good job of keeping the sun off one’s head/face/neck while gardening, mowing the grass, or drinking a beer (You can’t mow all the time now, can you?). You are able to adjust the brim to make your own statement; I choose to turn my side and front brims at 90-degree angles so I can dream I’m Crocodile Dundee. . . or my Uncle Mort. It is not “The goofy-looking” hat I had expected. The adjustable head size makes it a comfortable fit, and the chin draw string saves you from long, embarassing hat chases, particularly if you live in the Western Willamette Valley of Oregon where the southwest wind has it’s way every evening. I have washed it, and it retains it’s shape and color well. I like this hat.

This is the 3rd Dorfman hat I have purchased for my family. We all love them as our most functional, comfortable, cool, tough hats that we own. At the beach, in the ocean, sitting at or in the the pool, going hiking, and doing yard work is all better because of this hat. It provides excellent sun protection without getting your head too hot. I like to soak mine in ice water and then wring it out a bit before I head out to work in the garden during the summer. After years of use, the hats barely even look used. I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about these hats. We all absolutely love ours. I posted a pic of mine after around 4 years of use.
