The Best Hats for the Sun, Beach, or Outdoors

The best option for summer hats for men will depend on where you are going and what you are doing. However, the most significant factors to consider are sun protection and ventilation.

If you’re looking for a men's beach hat, it should offer intense sun protection. Our men's sun hats have a wide brim that is perfect for this

A wide-brim sun hat keeps the sun out of your eyes while offering UV protection.

Our men's summer hats also offer superior ventilation.

Our outdoor hats, made from leather or fabric, have vents on the side that allow air to pass through. This prevents what should be cool men's hats from becoming warm and sweaty.

Meanwhile, our straw hat men’s options are already lightweight and well-ventilated.

This means that all of our best sun protection hats for men are also cool hats for men. With a men's summer hat like this, you’ll easily be able to beat the heat.

The material you choose for a man's sun hat also impacts its durability. Leather and cloth are generally more durable than straw. So, if the hat is going to be worn on intense hikes or while working, these options may perform better.

Quality Construction You Can Count On

Every single part of your hat is made by dedicated, passionate craftsmen.

After hand-selecting the premium leather, straw, or mesh we’ll use, each of our men’s hats are hand-molded into a classic, rugged style to meet the demands of any adventure.

Then, we carefully dye them to get the perfect shades of cream, beige, merlot, steel, and more.

Some of our men’s outdoor hats are destined to be hunting hats and are outfitted with camo prints on the brim or crown, while others are simply to serve as a style statement in a bold hue.

Finally, our experienced hatmakers add the finishing touches like a contrasting leather hat band, hand-stitched brim trim in a contrasting color, or hand-tooled leather details on the crown.

As you can see our quality designs don’t just stop with the hat itself. We think through every detail to make sure each hat is a true work of art.

And that’s why we can say with confidence that we have the best sun hats for men.

Mens Sun Hat FAQ

While our hats are tough and durable, there are practices you can do to ensure your sun hat for men will maintain its high level of quality.

In many cases, you’ll want to bring your men's beach hats everywhere you go in the summer. However, make sure not to leave your wide-brim sun hat or your big beach hat in the car. Doing so will expose the hat to too much heat and damage it, especially if it is leather.

We also know that hats, especially men's work hats, will get dirty from time to time. In these cases, brush away the dirt with a light brush. If the dirt is still there, gently wipe it with a cloth that is damp but not completely wet.

When it comes to men's sun protection hats, some options are better than others. A wide brim is particularly helpful, which makes floppy hats for men or a big sun hat great options. Any large sun hat like this will work out well.

In addition, ventilation is essential. A hat without any ventilation will get sweaty very quickly. This is because the heat from your head will remain trapped within the hat. The sun’s heat is then added to this heat, which makes your head even hotter.

Color matters in sun hat men options. In general, a lighter color will be cooler. This is because lighter colors reflect more sunlight.

In general, hats for the sun are called sun hats. Any sun hat men will end up wearing can be referred to as a sun hat.

However, there are many different categories of hats that fall under this umbrella. These include beach hats, summer hats, outdoor hats, sun protection hats, and more. While these hats have a few differences that set them apart, they are all sun hats at their core.

Beach hats for men and outdoor hats are usually very similar. However, a few differences make these hats different from each other.

A beach hat for men will usually focus more on lightweight material and ventilation. This is why many beach hats are made from straw. Meanwhile, an outdoor hat will usually focus more on durability, and some even work as men's work hats. Often, these hats are made from straw or textiles.

For as many differences as there are between these hats, there are also plenty of similarities. They are both cool hats for men that help you beat the summer heat. Both will focus on ventilation and sun protection. So, they aren’t as different as other types of hats.
