Sunday Afternoons says:
A simple solution for all your sunny day coverage needs. Downsloping brim provides shade and mesh ventilation keeps you comfy. The classic silhouette promises to never go out of style, which is good because with durable fabrics and construction, the Solar will be your sunny day companion for years to come.
Our Verdict
The Sunday Afternoons Solar Bucket Hat is a solid choice for anyone after effective sun coverage without added bulk. At just 69g in medium, it provides UPF 50+ protection with a 7cm downsloping brim that shades the face and neck without getting in the way. Ventilation is well thought out, with mesh panels that keep air moving and help manage heat on warmer days. The adjustable sizing offers a secure, comfortable fit, and the chinstrap holds it in place when the wind picks up. It has its shape well after being stuffed in a pack, and the water-repellent fabric handles the odd shower with no fuss.
