Any recs on these?



Thinking something like this cause it covers neck



Wide brim without neck scarf thing but doesn't seem practical, prob would keep hitting things etc with it



This i feel like would still let too much sun hit face


Any have a favorite?

Glad these finally got their own dedicated thread after 26 long years!

I have a wide-brimmed North Face hat in the Tilley style. Has a nice absorbent terrycloth internal sweatband.

Will google tilley since it seems to be the overwhelming favorite at this point lol

Yeah i'm going with a tilley style over an actual tilley. $99 a little steep for a sun hat

Significantly cheaper than one skin cancer excision.

Seems like Tilley is a buy nice or buy twice proposition. although reading that i'd probably want something made of cotton to soak up sweat and the ltm6 is 100% synthetic

no, you don't want cotton

This one is dual purpose for sun/rain and looks more trendy:

The only store with some of both in stock is an REI in N Dallas, and sizes are hit or miss. I'm debating on going but damn thats a drive to come up empty handed. At least I'd know what size to get in the future. I measured around my head but what I'm getting doesn't seem what I remember it being back in the day

I definitely recommend trying them on to get the right size. Why the hurry?

Little part time temp gig, got a little burnt yesterdat...might just purposely go cheap and buy later or maybe cheap is sufficient. Wouldn't mind a good one anyways though

[Edited on July 9, 2026 at 3:25 PM. Reason : Burnt]

Man did that drive suck....7-1/2 was the perfect size I think, but only had it in their green ltm6 version, no other 7-1/2 to be found
