This hat is not just a normal hat, it covers not only your face but your neck as well! I always burn my neck and this finally solved the problem! Absolutely love it, took it with me on holiday to Dubai and it's used for any occasion! Even in the wind it doesn't blow off as it has a draw string for around your neck and bonus for women's hats, there's a ponytail hole so that you don't have to have your hair down all the time! Absolutely love it and would highly recommend!!
