Stylish, endurable and easy to care for - pure Tilley.
  • GUARANTEED FOR LIFE
  • INSURED AGAINST LOSS
  • EXCELLENT SUN PROTECTION
  • REPELS RAIN
  • TIES ON IN THE WIND
  • MACHINE WASHABLE (WON`T SHRINK)


APPEARANCE AND COMFORT:
To protect you from the sun and rain, Tilleys fit lower than other hats. This also tends to give one a rather dashing appearance!

For your comfort, they`re held on by gravity, not painful pressure on your forehead. On a hot muggy day, you`ll especially appreciate this!

Even though they fit gently, Tilleys won`t fly off because when there`s a breeze, you use one or both parts of the tuckaway Wind Cord

REPELS RAIN:
Not perfectly but usually quite adequately. Happily, the brims of the cotton-duck Tilleys actually become stiffer when they get wet, not floppier, helping to protect your neck, face and glasses.

HYDROFIL® ANTI-SWEAT BAND:
Soft and comfortable, it picks up sweat from your forehead and wicks it away to your temple area where it evaporates.

CERTIFIED SUN PROTECTION:
The fabric and style of all Tilley Hats have been certified to block 98 percent of harmful UVA/UVB radiation and deliver an ultraviolet factor (UPF) of 50+, the maximum rating given.

  'LIGHTWEIGHT AND INDESTRUCTABLE HAT'
Strengths: lightweight, keeps its shape and is easy to care for. Does it's job of keeping sun and rain off your noggin faultlessly
Weaknesses: a bit pricey and a wider brim would be a bonus. Maybe not the coolest looking hat.
Overall: this may seem a lot to pay for a hat (although you can get them for under £40) but mine has proven invaluable in enabling me to keep going in the sort of sunny conditions that have previously seen me struggling and ultimately suffering. It works pretty faultlessly, with its light weight, airy crown and brim that doesn't sag, even when soaked. It also keeps it's shape after washing and doesn't shrink. The company blurb calls it the best hat in the world and it's difficult to disagree.
