Common questions about men's wide brim sun hats

Is the wide brim cricket hat practical for walking and golf?

Yes. The cricket hat is light cotton with an adjustable fit, so it stays on in a breeze and does not get in the way of a swing or a rucksack strap, and it folds into a bag easily. 

Why choose equatorsun for men's wide brim sun hats?

Ordinary sun hats are rarely tested for UV and they can let through up to 10 times more UV than UPF 50+ sun hats. Every equatorsun piece is tested to the AS/NZS 4399 or EN 13758 standard and certified UPF 50+, which means the fabric blocks at least 98% of UVA and UVB rays from reaching the skin it covers. Leading UK consultant dermatologist Dr Dev Shah recommends the equatorsun range. We're a UK family business and have specialised in sun protective clothing since 2006.
