Great for camping around lakes or wetlands paddling and canoeing, the Outdoor Research Bug Bucket Hat gives you the convenience of a sun hat with the bug protection of a head net. This packable hat features SolarShield fabric with a UPF 30+ rating along the top and an adjustable netting along the sides. The top of the Bug Bucket Hat has a profile that's similar to the popular Solaris Hat by Outdoor Research. You can also pull the no-see-um netting up over the brim or stuff it inside the crown while the bugs retreat and regroup for their evening onslaughts. A drawcord closure along the neck makes adjustments easy and straightforward. Outdoor Research also added an internal Dri-Release headband to help keep perspiration out of your eyes. When you're done for the day or retired for the night, stuff the Outdoor Research Bug Bucket Hat inside its own hidden crown pocket for convenient packable storage.

Customer Reviews for the Bucket Outdoor Research Bug

Anon. Shopper - July 21, 2008

Great Hat
I hate mosquitos swirling around my face. When I saw someone using one of these on the trail, it looked different, yet practical. I thought it would be uncomfortable, but the netting stays off your face thanks to the materials stiffness and the width of the hat brim. I was very pleased with the resulting relief from pests.
