Protection by design

Certified UPF 50+ fabric, across a 7 cm wide brim

A sun hat protects twice over: the fabric has to stop UV reaching the skin, and the brim has to put enough of the face in shade. Plenty of kids hats manage one. The Cricket is built to do both.

UPF 50+ fabric Under 1 in 50 of the UV that hits the cloth reaches the skin.
7 cm wide brim Shade across the face, ears and back of the neck.
The Cricket hat worn, shading the face and neck The Cricket hat in light pink
Natural fibre

Woven from cotton twill

A soft cotton twill that holds its UPF 50+ rating while still letting air move through it, so the hat stays comfortable in the heat you bought it for. Brass eyelets at the crown let warm air escape.

Breathable Eyelet vents at the crown, soft twill against the skin.
Lightweight Light enough to forget it is being worn. Softens with wear.

Made for kids who do not sit still

The best sun hat is the one still on their head at the end of the day. The Cricket has an adjustable chin cord with a toggle to keep it secure on windy beach days, and an internal drawstring band to dial in the fit.

It packs flat into a bag and springs back into shape, so it can live in a rucksack between beach days without being ruined.

One fitted size, adjustable down

Measure around the head just above the ears. The Cricket is made to a 56 cm head circumference, our largest kids fit, and the internal drawstring draws it in from there, so it suits older children and teens. It also fits smaller adult heads if you like a shorter brim.

Why we sell this
“equatorsun began after my mum, Annette, was diagnosed with melanoma in 2006. We lost her in 2009, and the family has carried on her mission since. Childhood sunburn is one of the clearest risk factors for melanoma later in life, which is why we are careful about the kids hats we put our name to. This is one we would put on our own children.”
