Columbia Unisex Bora Bora Booney

I have no idea how I've only just found these Columbia hats but I am addicted. Simple adjustable design really does fit all sizes and I particularly like that I can adjust it for if my hair is up or down and therefore thicker or thinner. It folds into nothing and was light and comfortable, keeping my face shaded but my head cool and has a handy chin strap for windy conditions. Definitely the best I've had.

this is an amazing hat that stays on your head and provides excellent protection from sun at an amazing price. I've paid£13.99 for mine. works well in very hot and humid weather in southern India. it folds tiny, can even be carried in shorts pocket but I would recommend a small backpack or bum bag. I will be taking this with me for my other travels.

Bought two of these for a hiking holiday. Survived all sorts of conditions and looks as good as new. Can see this lasting several years. Chin strap can be tightened to prevent blowing away in wind. No complaints from the kids, stylish and practical. Bit expensive but worth the money.

This is a very brief review as I’ve not had the hat long. What I can vouch for are the following: very light & comfortable, ( toggle allows you to customise the fit ), very lightweight so can easily be fold up and be stuffed in a pocket or rucksack, lastly, it does seem well made so I don’t think durability would be an issue whatever your outdoor pursuits. All told it’s great value & I’m very happy.

Excellent quality, comfortable and stylish

I was on some fieldwork recently and needed a way to keep the sun off my neck while also showing to the world that I'm an archaeologist with zero employable skills and an unjustifiable obsession with old bits of pot hidden in the earth. This hat, with its dull grey overtone and shape that cries "practical first, sexy last" was the perfect hat for the job. In all seriousness, very lightweight, breathable, and durable. It's my second of these hats (my first is desert sand coloured in case I need to camouflage myself when fighting off bad guys in Egypt; this one was for mountain camouflage). And the strap is effective without you having to garrote yourself to stop it flying off in the wind. My one gripe is the slightly flimsy rim, which occasionally decided to buckle right over my eyes and blind me. If this is likely to annoy you, a study pith helmet might suit better.

This is a lightweight and breathable sun hat that did a good job of protecting by head and neck while hiking in the high mountains. It's quite large, even after tightening the band I found it quite loose on my 58cm head but it was still comfortable. However, it has some flaws: 1. The brim is not very stiff. This does not matter in calm weather but in windy conditions the brim keeps blowing up. 2. The big problem is washing. I put in in the washing machine at 30 gentle cycle along with a couple of running caps. The caps came out like new but the Columbia hat was wrecked, the brim had started to disintegrate and lost what little stiffness it had before. Not acceptable after 1 weeks of use so I returned to Amazon for a refund. Hand washing might have been a better approach but this is 2023...

Good quality sun hat. Like the dark underside for glare.

Muito bom. O chapéu encaixa bem, é macio, bonito e protege muito bem do sol

Good materials and comfortable

Este modelo de gorro no cuenta con la tecnología Omni-Shade UPF 50 de la marca Columbia puesto que no trae la etiqueta indicativa de ello, como si hacen todos los productos que la tienen, además en la web de la marca tampoco lo especifica. Quitando ese detalle que para mi es básico, el resto me ha gustado.

This hat is amazing. It keeps the sun off my dungeon dwelling balding head while taking the dogs out in the Florida heat. The mesh panels allow for airflow which helps to keep you cool. The ability to cinch the fit of the hat to not only under your chin, it also allows you to cinch around your head to a custom fit. I love this thing.

If the brim was marginally more rigid, this would be an easy 5-star review. It's a little floppy for my tastes, but I wear an Akubra a lot of the time. That said, it's my definite go-to for hiking, fishing, and walking the dogs. Worth every cent.
