Do you have a summer sun hat? Don't underestimate the sun protection hat, it can really provide sun protection effect, not an ordinary hat. Summer is here again, how to choose a sun protection hat? What are some cost-effective ones that you can recommend? If you have any doubts, today’s topic can help you~
How to choose a sun protection hat? Without further ado, let’s get straight to the practical stuff: Look at the UPF value
It’s the same as sun protection clothing and umbrellas , Sun hats also have a UPF value logo, which is what we often call the ultraviolet protection factor. The higher the value, the stronger the sun protection ability and the better the protection effect.
So, when purchasing, you should pay attention to whether there is a UPF value on the tag or trademark page. If not, it is not a real sun protection hat, and don’t buy it no matter how cheap it is. It is also recommended to choose UPF5. Look at the brim of the hat
The wider and downward the brim of the hat is, the larger the sun protection area will be. The reason is very simple. The larger the coverage area and the better the angle, the better the UV protection effect will be. Therefore, the brim of the hat cannot be ignored. Look at the size
Hats are also divided into different sizes, so you can measure your head circumference before purchasing, and then buy according to this data. Of course, you can also buy an adjustable version, which is more convenient. Look at the color
Girls prefer beauty and like light colors, such as water pink and light blue, which look particularly beautiful. But in fact, one thing has been ignored: even if it is the same hat, the sun protection ability of dark colors is higher than that of light colors, so it is best to choose dark colors. Look at washing
Did you know that some sun hats cannot be washed if they are dirty? This is true ~ So, you must read the washing tips. Check the washability label or trademark page to see if you can buy something that can be washed. Because you sweat a lot in the summer and it’s windy and sandy, it would be embarrassing if you couldn’t clean it.
The choice of sun protection hats basically depends on the above points. Let’s take a look below. What are the recommended sun protection hats with high cost performance?

This shell hat from Jiaoxiajia, almost everyone around me has one, because it not only Just a hat. This shell hat is super convenient to store and can be rolled into a headband and worn as a headband. This really kills many sun hats. It is said that it is also a hat that can really be used as a headband.

It is best to choose an adjustable shell hat. The non-adjustable version is easy to slip off (the brim of the hat slips off, is it embarrassing?), and it is not recommended to wear it on windy days or when riding a bicycle, otherwise, It was the same feeling as before when I saw someone’s umbrella flipped over on the road.

This brand is also relatively loud. It is a brand from France. Its full-protection sun hats have always sold very well, such as the one pictured above.
It has a large coverage area and is composed of a fisherman hat, sun protection mask and neck gaiter, which can be disassembled and used in any combination. And the production is very considerate. There are ventilation holes in the middle of the mask to facilitate heat dissipation. The cape-style neck gaiter can protect the back of the neck from sunburn. The neck gaiter is fixed with buttons and the mask, making it difficult to blow open.
To be honest, this sun protection hat is not something that just anyone can hold. Anyway, I don’t dare to wear it outside. People say it looks like it comes from Pakistan. However, it feels really cool when worn, and the sun protection effect is also great ~ it is more suitable for outdoor riding.
Okay, that’s all for today’s topic~ The above brands were personally tested by friends around me. They are of good quality and good sun protection effect.
