Reviews

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)

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)

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."

Jennifer S. (5/5)

Great hat!

"My husband is a window cleaner and was getting to much sun on the back of his neck just wearing a baseball cap. I bought him this hat and he says it’s good to work in when it’s extreme hot and sunny."

Elizabeth C. (5/5)

Wonderful

"It's rare in the UK the temperature warrents such a high amount of protection my son-in-law has terminal brain cancer and I purchased this for him. After a mix up in size the 2nd hat arrived as promised and Peter loves it. It's fantastic protection but also manages to be lightweight and look good. The staff I have dealt with have been brilliant."

Nichola H. (5/5)

Excellent hat. Comfy & cool.

"Excellent hat. Comfy & cool. Brim perfect, BUT top panel very thin, & sun shines through. Not sure how u/v protective it is 🤞🙏"

C H. (4/5)

Stylish and Practical

"The hat was delivered promptly. It is an attractive shade of blue, wide-brimmed enough to protect my face and neck and verified to be Sun Protection Factor 50. zit will fit in a coat pocket comfortably and is reasonably priced. Does what it says on the tin !"

Thomas M. (5/5)

The perfect hat at last!

"A hat (other than a baseball hat) my husband will actually wear! It’s cool, light and protective. It’s a great colour with a trendy design and because it’s adjustable I was able to buy it on line without worrying about the size of his head too much. The under chin strap means he can’t use the wind as an excuse to take it off! I’m so impressed I’m considering buying one for myself!"
