Solbari hats?

[HellenicOfTroy]

I'm seeing a lot of ads for these and have been in the market for a large-sized (I have a large head!) large-brimmed, packable sunhat, ideally in cotton. Are they worth the money? I have curly hair so sort of have to just suck up having hat hair in the summer if I want face protection. I have a cheap soft papery/crochet straw type one but I don't think it gives that much protection and I like the idea of being able to hide under a bigger one!

I saw a lovely size and shaped one in M&S the other day, with a wire brim, but wasn't keen on the two colourways.

In the Solbari Insta as I keep seeing, I like the first one the model wears - sort of tan-coloured with a light lining.

I bought one years ago and its fab. I've also bought my dh one for his sport and my mum liked mine so much she bought one. They are good quality and shade your face and neck well. And wash fantastically. I love mine!

DH has one. It’s really good. To be honest, I wear it more than he does.

I have a couple (opposite issue, tiny pin head) and really like them. Big (or huge) cotton brims and detachable chin strap for windy days. They wash and pack flat.

Thanks all, appreciate the responses. I might order the Resort Wide Brim one on Prime for ease of returning if need be. Although frankly could do with a waterproof one at the mo 😳
