- Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2024Size: One SizeColor: WhiteVerified PurchaseGreat hat overall. Really nice lightweight material. Only thing keeping it from a 5 star is the mesh coloring. It is off-white compared to bright white everywhere else on the hat, which makes the mesh appear dirty.

Images in this review - Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2014Size: One SizeColor: SageVerified PurchaseI live in the tropics and the sun blazes relentlessly day in and day out. So I wear head protection and the Bora Bora Booney is a smart and comfy way to keep skin on my bean. It packs easily, compressing into almost nothing. As far as hats go, it's cooler than average due to the mesh ventilation and lightweight fabric, and certainly cooler than my cotton bucket and ball caps. But not as cool as my Columbia Men's Coolhead Ball Cap III (Omni-Freeze ZERO).
It's engineered as a sunhat and the dense weave fabric and large floppy brim provide excellent protection, besting any bucket or ball cap. No sign of burn on my noggin even after a day in the sun. Of course, should you get caught in a tropical downpour, the mesh ventilation windows leak, so not a rain hat. The adjustable chin strap keeps it from blowing away in trade winds but the brim is too large and floppy for heavy wind or ocean boat trips. I'm a photographer and the Booney's brim, although large, easily flexes out of the way when I shoot verticals with a DSLR. It fact, the Booney makes a fine lens shade! Alas, the brim is too floppy to stay if folded up--Australian explorer look--and lacks a snap to lock it in place.
Hat size is adjustable via drawstring. At default the hat is too large for my size 7.25 bean. A slight tug of the drawstring and the clip locks on my hat size and stays put. Simple but effective.
Construction quality is excellent: not a loose thread, nylon fabric is of good quality and it feels and looks durable. It does rock the safari look something fierce, so it that isn't your thing, check out Columbia's buckets or ball caps. However, I dig it and pair it with a Columbia Omni-Shade shirt most of the time.
This fair weather sun hat is wonderful for protecting my noggin and upper face during hiking, beach and gardening. I like it so much I bought three of them—camo, gray and khaki—so there’s always one at ready!
