Mountain Hardwear Stryder Sun Hat Oyster Shell, L/XL

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I bring the Stryder Sun Hat on any high-sun mission. The mesh panels vent really well, the back flap adds real protection, and it still crushes down small enough to stash in a side pocket."We count on the Stryder Sun Hat when our days stretch through open desert, wide alpine bowls, or long river miles where shade is scarce. The lightweight recycled nylon dries fast and feels airy in high heat, while the wide brim shields our face from direct rays. Side mesh panels move air through the hat as we climb or paddle, keeping us cool even when the sun is unrelenting. An extended back brim protects the neck during full-exposure travel, and the removable chin cinch keeps the fit secure when the wind starts to rise. Inside, the tricot-laminate front panel feels soft against the skin and maintains breathability as we sweat. Crushable construction makes it easy to throw in a pack and deploy when conditions demand reliable, all-around sun protection.
