Foldable hat with vents and sun protection. The brim isn't too wide and it folds down into your bag without damage.
The hat is available in different sizes, so ensured a good fit. It is comfortable to wear and offers good sun protection. The strap ensures that it stays attached even in blustery conditions. I bought the purple one for my wife and it's a good colour.
Protects the body a little bigger, comfortable and nice
I liked it very much and bought it. It is easy to use and looks great.
A very good hat, but only if it's not windy.
Too soft.
I find that we sweat underneath, otherwise it protects well from the sun.

Additional Product Information
Composition
Main fabric: 86.0% Polyamide, 14.0% Elastane ; Inner fabric: 100.0% Polyester
What criteria must a cap meet in order to qualify as ”uv-protective”?
UV protection standards for hats are very specific: The fabric must of course be anti-UV (UPF index greater than 50), but this is not enough to claim the finished product is anti-UV. The hat must also have a wide brim and flap which fully protects the face and the back of the neck. The Trek 500 hat meets these requirements so you can go hiking with complete peace of mind: you are perfectly protected!
Why is polyamide “more resistant”?
Polyamide offers excellent abrasion and tear resistance. Moreover, microorganisms and mould don’t trouble the synthetic fibre!
How do you measure a fabric's quick drying capacity?
The product is machine washed 3 times then line dried, then we immerse it in water and measure how long it takes to get back to its pre-wash weight.This hat scored an impressive 5 out of 5 stars, returning to its pre-washed weight in less than 80 minutes!
Product testing
The entire design team was able to test this hat during frequent excursions in the Mont Blanc mountain range, where Forclaz – Decathlon's trekking brand – has its offices.
