great hat, all I had hoped for & more! perfect for gardening & the beach.. since there is a string to hold it on in winds. great face & neck coverage & very good construction.

Met my need.
My husband bought the hat to wear while working outside running the backhoe and dozer. It will be very helpful with the MS sun and humidity, especially during June-August.

Super, sexy, straw for the shade
What an awesome, stylish, solution to blocking the sun. The first time I wore this hat I went to the greenhouse nursery. I was complimented and asked twice where I got my hat. Then later that day I was asked if I would consider selling my hat. What an attention getter, not only functional, the wide brim really shades your face, while also being great looking, and stylish. I was pleased that I chose to purchase this item. This hat is well constructed, comfortable and great looking. Not to mention the prize is right, five stars.

Tula Lifeguard Hat
The white Tula Lifeguard Hat was just what I had been looking for down here in the deep south in Mobile, Alabama where we have 95 degree heat with high humidity, a tropical, thick, sweltering heat. The white color gives maximum sun deflection, the wide brim shades my shoulders and the back of my neck when I am looking down working on a/c equipment on rooftops in my work and keeps the sun at bay. The cotton foam band (inner liner), pleasantly surprised me when I saw the elastic stretch, which makes it fit snugly and better than any outdoor hat I've ever owned. It fits my head perfectly and stays put, even in high winds, the white palm straw somehow keeps my head cool and the inner band absorbs the sweat.... what a great hat, thanks Tula folks.

Exactly what my son wanted!
The hat arrived in great shape and in time. He was surprised and thrilled to receive it (His wife had told me he wanted this hat.) Haven't had time to receive a report yet. This hat is great for our New Mexico sunshine.
