When we sent the material sample to the SGS Laboratory for testing, it went off the scale! It actually came back with an official UPF (Ultra-Violet Protection Factor) of 2569 allowing just 0.03% of UVA and 0.04% of UVB to pass through! Unfortunately, the 'official' rating system only goes up to factor 50+
the equivalent of wearing Factor 50 Sunscreen, so we had to settle for this!
Made from a tough 10oz Cotton Duck material, which breathes naturally for the summer coolness. Treated with a chemical water resistant coating, this new hat will also keep you dry in a downpour. Complete with an adjustable chin-strap for windy conditions, which can be tucked away inside the hat with a neat Velcro strap and a second Velcro pocket inside the hat crown for fishing licence etc.
Hat sizes are given in INCHES which is the "head diameter".
To measure your size, use a tape measure & measure the circumference of your head, loosely, running the tape just above the ears and approx. 1" above the eyebrows. Then refer to the sizes above for your correct size.
