QUIKSILVER Men's Pierside Slimbot Sun Protection Hat Review:


Every time I bring this bad boy out, I get laid!



O'NEILL Men's Sonoma Print Straw Lifeguard Hat, Asphalt, ONE Review:


For his after-school football practice, my spouse required a hat for sun protection. Since I couldn't find one locally, I turned to Amazon. After reading reviews, I chose this hat. He thought it appeared fine and functioned well. Others on the field remarked on it and expressed envy that they didn't have one like it.



QUIKSILVER Men's Bushmaster Floppy Sun Beach Hat Review:


I was seeking for a hat on the boat, and I found it. This hat is ideal for keeping my face, nose, and part of my shoulder covered when out for extended periods of time because I am continuously pulling and driving friends and family on the lake. This is going to be the perfect hat for lazy Sunday afternoons outside and summertime relaxation on the dock, boat, or beach. Any bucket style hat will look huge on me because I have a small head. This hat fits perfectly and will stay on my head while moving thanks to the straps.



Quiksilver Men's Outsider Merica Sun Protection Hat Review:


I adore this hat. I experienced great sun protection. I received a lot of compliments on it as well. However, you must be careful not to get it wet because it may deform. Just make sure to dry it flat if it gets wet.



O'NEILL Men's Sonoma Print Straw Hat Review:


The former insignia on the front was big and spherical; the new image is smaller, so it appears that the design has altered. If they modify more than simply the insignia, then this evaluation might no longer be relevant. According to the images, my hat is the closest to the "Natural" version that they sell in 2018.This sea straw is much tougher than the thin material used on the contemporary design of straw hats, and it holds up better. Despite a month of hard use, there has been zero damage.This hat is less distracting than my previous straw hat because of the glued black cotton (I believe) covering on the underside that helps prevent tiny sun spots from glaring through the straw. To help it fit better and prevent the straw from pinching my forehead, the interior features a thin elastic band.The chin cord appears frayed and as like it has been "brushed" to appear aged, as is the case with "in" jeans these days. This makes it softer than other cords (less scratch on chin), but I'm worried that it may have shortened the cord's lifespan.The brim is so wide that it restricts head movement if you're carrying something heavy (a seat or chair, a life vest, a costume), but it's generally incredibly light and comfy. Good for beach and yard maintenance, bad for kayak fishing.The frontal symbol is unsightly and blocks the front of the hat's airflow, however you can cut the stitching there, and the adhesive they used is so delicate that you can gently remove it from there without damaging the straw without using a heat source.One Year Edit: I still wear this hat a year later. However, I've discovered that it expands excessively when wet, so avoid wearing it in the rain because it will swell to the point that it sits on your ears instead of your head and becomes heavy. However, after drying, it shrank back to its former size.The chinstrap's steel eyelets, which are neither coated nor stainless steel, corroded in the presence of sea water (ocean use). If you wear this hat to the beach, I advise rinsing the eyelets to prevent excessive rusting. Even though the steel spring in the chinstrap stopper has rusted, it has so far continued to function.Otherwise, in my opinion, this straw hat has endured adequately. Because I'm used to being short enough to go beneath and the hat makes me taller by several inches, the only damage is at the top, and I blame myself for hitting it on things.



QUIKSILVER Men's Pierside Straw Hat Review:


arrived in perfect shape. I was truly taken aback. Many negative reviews mentioned the product coming damaged or in an inadequately sized box. I'm handling it delicately because the brim feels a little thin. He'll be utilizing it this weekend because it was originally a gift for my boyfriend. If something horrible occurs with it over the weekend, I will update my rating. Watch how things develop.Update: My boyfriend took this hat kayaking and to Big Bear over the weekend. No harm yet. I'm so glad it made it through the weekend. Although it is still in decent condition, I do wish it were a little more durable because I can see it might not last as long as I had planned. It feels delicate, therefore my boyfriend took great care to treat it gently, which is why it is still in tact. We would have treated the merchandise with less care if I hadn't read the reviews. Still adore the design and appearance of it, though.
