Henschel Hats Aussie Breezer Crushable Soft Mesh Summer Hat for Men - UPF Sun Protection with Adjustable Chin Strap - Lightweight & Packable Outdoor Hat for Hiking, Fishing, Beach & Travel - Brown

UPDATE May 2023: Going into 2d summer hot weather in TX. Hat worked very well last summer. Cooler head was the order of the day. [FIRST REVIEW] Looking good and protecting one topside is important for seasoned citizen. In the Texas summer one needs a suitable cover that is cool to wear in style and let's a breeze pass through. I shopped locally but only found ones for gardening/lifeguard; big straw hats. I wanted one with ventilation and lots of shade and found this brand. Be sure to double check your hat size with the seller's tips. So ordered a medium size but after wearing it indoors I found it too small. So I returned it and ordered the large size. Large was too big for me but as other reviewers noted put something inside sweat band. See photo. It fits much better now for one with an in-between hat size. While walking one does sweat a bit even with wind blowing through it. If just sitting or say fishing I don't think you would sweat as much under the hat. I have only used the rawhide chin cord once when the wind was blowing a lot. The photos were taken in bright sunshine so you can see the amount of shade one gets underneath. Happy I bought it. UPDATE Oct 2022. Just about finished (I hope) with hot Texas weather and can wear my ball cap again. During the summer I wore the hat many times and really appreciate the shade. And it seemed a bit cooler up top with the vented construction. When you sweat a lot the hat seems to get fit a bit looser even with the filler I put under the sweat band. Size does matter and the shade works best for me. BTW: if you are in a loud noise environment and want wear this hat shop for behind the head ear muffs and/or foam ear plugs to protect your hearing. I have written reviews on muffs and foam ear plugs that I have worn with the hat.
