Sunday Afternoons Hats

Keep Cool and Prevent Red Neck

Going out for a long walk in the sun, you need protection and you need to stay cool. The Sunday Afternoons hats provide full sun protection with a wide brim and neck drape and are made of sweat-wicking fabric to keep you cool and dry. The designs are unisex and perfect for travel as well as wearing on long walks.

The wide brim of any Sunday Afternoon hat provides coverage for your face, and the neck drape protects your neck, or can be tucked inside the hat if you prefer not to use it. An absorbent head band wicks away sweat. The brim is stiffened to allow it to float if you lose it in the lake, but the hat is flexible enough to roll up in your luggage or pack.

Mesh on the sides allows the air to flow through.

The chin strap keeps it on in windy weather, and there is a ponytail hole in some designs such as the Sports Hat, and adjustable strap in back.

The hat is unisex and comes in a variety of colors and patterns.

I used this hat for trail marking 20 miles a day for the Seattle 3-Day Breast Cancer Walk, and I was a quick convert. We marked in 90+ degree weather in full sun for 12 hours a day and my head stayed cool. Never having used a hat with a neck drape before, I am a convert. This is the perfect hat for long hot walks.

My husband, however, doesn't like the styling. To each their own - I prefer to prevent becoming a "red-neck."
