MISSION Cooling Bucket Hat - Unisex Wide-Brim Hat for Men & Women - Lightweight, Foldable & Durable - Cools Up to 2 Hours

I recently purchased a waterproof cooling bucket hat, and it has quickly become my go-to accessory for outdoor activities. This hat offers the perfect combination of comfort, functionality, and style, making it a must-have for anyone who enjoys spending time in the sun. First and foremost, the cooling feature is incredible. The hat is made from innovative, moisture-wicking fabric that helps keep my head cool and dry, even on the hottest days. It effectively wicks away sweat and provides a refreshing cooling sensation, making it ideal for hiking, gardening, or simply lounging by the pool. The waterproof feature is also a game-changer. The hat repels water and dries quickly, which is perfect for unexpected rain showers or when I'm near water. It keeps me protected and comfortable without weighing me down, thanks to its lightweight design. Comfort-wise, this hat excels. It has a soft, breathable lining that feels comfortable against my skin. The wide brim provides ample shade and UV protection for my face and neck, which is essential for preventing sunburn and staying safe under the sun. In terms of style, the hat is both practical and fashionable. It comes in a variety of colors and patterns to suit different preferences. I opted for a neutral color that goes well with any outfit, but there are bold options available for those who want to make a statement. The adjustable drawstring ensures a secure fit, even on windy days, and the hat is easy to pack and carry with me wherever I go. It's become an essential part of my outdoor gear, and I receive compliments on its style and functionality whenever I wear it. Overall, this waterproof cooling bucket hat has exceeded my expectations. It’s comfortable, functional, and stylish, providing excellent sun protection and cooling comfort. Whether you're hiking, fishing, or enjoying a day at the beach, I highly recommend this hat. Five stars!

I bought this hat for roughly $20 and at the same time purchased one of the other Mission brand baseball cap style cooling hats so I have been able to compare both of these hats. This bucket hat isn't huge, and for my big head it is a little on the tighter side but still perfectly comfortable for me. Could be an issue for some though I imagine most people will be fine as I know my head is bigger than average and the fit doesn't bother me. As to the cooling powers of the hat, I mostly use it on hot days when I am lounging in the pool to shade my face and keep me cool as I work on my tan. I dunk it in the water then slap it on my head. The only part of this hat that is going to cool you is the top and the inner rim that goes around your head. So for as much water as this hat soaks up, it really doesn't do much but run off and provide shade like any other hat. It stays cool for what seems a short amount of time but it does help. If you are on the go, I would keep a spray bottle handy so you can keep misting the top and inside every hour or so and get a lot more mileage out of it. Overall, it is a good hat but I feel the ball cap style hat is better for day to day. That one soaks up your sweat better than this one and if you do start to overheat with it on, take it off and it'll cool you down again once you put it back on after a few minutes thanks to the sweat retention. Both benefit from keeping a spray bottle nearby, and I do consider that a must have if you are trying to get these things to cool you down, but if I could pick only one I would go with the cap but luckily the world doesn't work that way so I can use the cap at work and then this bucket hat around the house and pool. This cap is definitely a bigger help in rain as well thanks to the wider brim. While it isn't perfect it is still worth buying just remember to have realistic expectations. An hour of good cooling effect after a good soaking and maybe you can get two hours in shade under ideal conditions. Every person is different too, so that is just my experience. Regardless, it is a worthwhile purchase and I am happy with my Mission hats.

Love this hat. Keeps sun off my face and is lightweight!

I was pleasantly surprised that this hat really does work. My husband's a construction worker and works outside in this heat all day long and I worry about him and sun exposure and heat exhaustion So I figured , let's try it and see if it works Lo and behold, this hat does work!!! It's amazing. It keeps him cool. Keeps the Sun off his head. It's really an amazing product It's very thin, which I was concerned about, but the material works It looks great. He's happy with the camo style and overall, a really great product. Fits his head nicely. Keeps its shape also. Fits in your back pocket lol. I would highly recommend it.

Honestly I'd buy this hat again. It fits my dome so perfectly, kept the sun out of my face and neck, and kept me cool during a very hot camping trip. It's lightweight, super breathable, and dries quickly when you need it to (aka when it's HOT). I was at our campsite sweltering and made multiple trips to the potable water spigot to drench this hat and wring it out like a towel. It felt so amazing to place this soppy hat on my head and it still kept its shape. The color and print design are awesome, I love that you can button the sides, and the price is well worth it! This hat is definitely going to replace my other sun hats. 100000% recommended.

The hat is cute and very lightweight. The crown is quite large with no size adjustment so can’t take much wind, unless you want to tighten the chin strap mercilessly. Arrived with severe creases in the brim that did not come out in the wash, which makes it flop down at inconvenient spots; haven’t yet tried ironing them out. Tinted sunscreen did not wash out, even with spot remover.

My kid wears this (and only this!!) type of hat during summer camp each year. He can soak it and stay cool during the day and it also gives plenty of sun protection around his super pale (bless him!) face, ears, neck, etc. He’s been wearing a variation of this hat since he was 5 years old at camp. Once I got a mission brand hat, the others were no longer good enough. He is 17 now and I know I have to find that mission brand hat for camp or we’re going to have to order another one like we did last year, hence the review. It’s Light weight, can add water for cooling, great shade protection. Worth the money!

These hats are fantastic. Very comfortable, they stay on, and afford good protection from the sun. I had skin cancer on my ear so I don't take chances and these hats are perfect.

Hat mich nicht überzeugt.

涼しい

Got it for my brother who is a roofer and he loves it. Good quality.

Works great, but don’t like elastic chin strap

説明書通りに、水を含ませて、使用すると、保湿時間が長いので、真夏の散歩やゴルフには良いと思いました。 思ったより小さく帽子やなぁと思ったが、これ以上大きくすると、水分を含ませて使用する関係上、帽子の方が崩れるので、このサイズがベストって理解した。 良い製品です。
