SHINEY'S HAT REVIEW
I normally just wear the OzSTOC cap to keep the glare off but I have been lucky enough to be given a chance to test out the OzSTOC Broad Brimmed Hat (version 2)
So I have been taking it with me all over the place, walking, driving, working around the yard and at RTE’s, it is very comfortable and fairly lightweight.
The brim is large enough to cover my face, ears and neck, it keeps the sun off so well that even when I forget sunscreen I don't get burned
I have even tested it against the cap by removing it when out and about and instead putting on the cap…
I could immediately feel the heat on my neck, ears and part of my face
, by comparison the broad brim provided great sun protection and made it noticeably cooler
The hat has a cord/chin strap that you can adjust to keep it on your head when it is windy, however I found it to stay in place by itself fairly well.
This hat maintains it’s shape very well even when it’s been packed badly, rolled up, folded, sat on, tossed or crumpled in a top box
The OzSTOC Broad Brimmed Hat (version 2) seems very well made and has my recommendation
Cheers
