Reviews

Excellent sun hat

"Arrived pretty promptly. Great light weight sun hat, which provides comprehensive coverage for my head and neck, especially at the book. Look forward to wearing it on my walking holiday next week!"

Richard B. (5/5)

Thank you so much for

"Thank you so much for this hat the fit is spot on for me it’s perfect in every way. I have been to Australia in recent years and know the importance of waring a hat like this. I did have skin cancer once. I don’t want it again. I'm a golfer so not having a hat like this with the summer we have had this year. It makes good sense to ware it. Once again many thanks."

Raymond S. (5/5)

Great if it’s not really windy

"This hat is great in most regards, it’s lightweight, folds down easily - you could even stuff it in your pocket. Comfortable to wear and you can adjust the fit. It has a chin strap which means it won’t blow off your head - however if you wear it when it’s extremely windy (as it often is in the UK) the brim either blows down into your face or up leaving your face completely exposed - if the brim was a bit stiffer this wouldn’t happen but it’s too floppy. The only fault in an otherwise great hat but no good at all in windy conditions."

Liz B. (5/5)

Brilliant hat

"I bought this hat in navy blue and l'm really happy with it. Decent size brim to give all round protection, it's light and airy and tucks away easily into my rucksack or bag. Easy to adjust at the back and can be worn with or without strap. I recommended to a walking buddy and they bought one too but in grey. I immediately feel better in hot sun wearing my hat with f50 sun protection."

Viv M. (5/5)

Very handy on holiday

"Got it for my holiday and has worked really well. Kept my head cool in the heat. Did great job blocking out the sun. Really liked it and would recommend!"

Arvind T. (5/5)

Great sun protection

"This is the second hat I've bought from Solbari - this one lighter and easier to pack, good brim coverage, good fit and easily adjustable. Easy to care for too - sweat stains and dirt wash out easily."

Sarah G. (5/5)

Five stars

"Lightweight and comfortable, important to a non hat-wearer like me. The slightly longer back protects the neck. This has turned out to be a very good buy in these recent heatwaves."

Lorraine C. (5/5)

Great sun protection

"Great hat - very comfortable fit and easily adjustable. Easy to roll up and pack - good brim coverage - feel safe in the sun wearing this!"

Sarah G. (5/5)

Love this fit, style, ventilation

"Love this fit, style, ventilation and fabric. Lightweight, breathable and soft on the skin yet holds its shape pretty well. Im 5ft11 and for my height this hat looks in proportion. I’ve tried other brimmed hats and they’ve just not met the mark, this one does."

Paul K. (5/5)

Ladies Expedition Sun Hat

"This is the 4th hat bought from Solbari. They are all good quality and offer a good standard of protection in the heatwaves we are experiencing in the UK. I have bought jackets, shirts and swimwear all a pleasure to wear and giving the confidence to get outside."
