Simms Solar Sombrero

We all appreciate the sun when we need to warm our chilled bones, but there are days when even in tropical locations it's best to stay sheltered. Our Solar Sombrero is made for the days spent under searing sun. This broad brim, bucket-style hat creates a total eclipse of the head, blocking as much sun as possible from your head and face. It's lightweight with an elastic sweatband, and there's a removable chin strap to keep it in place in windy conditions. A foam brim keeps it afloat should it happen to find it's way into the water.

  UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor and indicates how much of the sun's UV radiation is absorbed.  A fabric with a rating of 50 will allow only 1/50th of the sun's UV rays to pass through.  This means the fabric will reduce your skin's UV radiation exposure significantly.  All of our UPF finishes last the life of the garment, an industry standard of 30 washings.
