Customer Reviews Outdoor Research Kids DELETED

Daughter LOVES this hat. At 8 years old she uses it for hiking, the pool, and just hanging out in the sun. We are not concerned about her being in the sun with this amazing brim, and she loves the color, style, and comfort/ease of use.

The best sun hat out there for kids - great wide brim for protection and the drawstring keeps it on. A must for the beach.

Bought this for my son and he absolutely loves it. It is his go to hat when we get set to head out the door. He owns 4 or 5 different full brim hats and he consistently goes for this hat. It has to be comfy for him to rock it as much as he does. As a parent I love that it is easy to adjust to his growing head. Bonus is that it floats. Great product that is well made, proven to be durable so far.

Love this for keeping sun off my daughters skin

Love this hat for my son. We got the beige color and it's a great neutral color. The wide brim gives him great sun coverage without obstructing his view. He is 3.5 yo and I got him the small which fits him perfectly. I think it will last him only 1 summer. Zappos customer service was awesome and shipping was fast! Thanks

Awesome hat great for the Australian summer in the pool and at the beach my 4 yr loves it. Only problem is trying to find somewhere locally to buy it

I highly recommend this hat. I bought 1 for my 3 and 1 year old. The quality is great as well as the design. The hat floats and protects little faces from the sun. The chin strap is handy and safely breaks away. Great product!

Excellent sun hat! I recently purchased these hats for my 10 and 7 year old daughters for a beach vacation. In the past the girls have not been big fans of wearing hats but they loved these, they found the hats comfortable and that they provided shady relief. We took the hats out boating and the tie helped them to stay on. Glad to have found these!

Purchased for trip to beach w kids, was looking for a light, soft, wide brimmed hat for use when kids playing around in sand and just needed a break from constant sunscreen. This hat was outstanding for head, ears, complete face and neck protection, perfect - stayed on well on the breezy days also.

Absolutely the best beach hat for sun protection. I'm an adult, petite frame, and the large Youth fits perfectly. I have one in every color.

Great hat. Nice wide brim. Love the cord for windy days. My daughter is fair and needs protection from the sun. This does the trick.

Love this hat! My daughter has very fair skin and is very sensitive in her eye area. This hat is lightweight, cute, and provides complete coverage for her eyes. I don't even have to fight her to wear it because it's that comfortable.

Great hat, very light weight and the fabric on the top of the head actually somehow lets a breeze through. My 3 year old doesn't even mind wearing it. Also, the fit is great. My DS has a big noggin for his age and this fits with a tiny bit of room to grow so I can see it lasting a few years.

Absolutely perfect for beach and outdoor activities. My 8 year old daughter wore this to St John and it kept her covered & comfortable.

I ordered this hat in Glacier Blue, Size Large, for myself as the Women's Oasis Sombrero, size small, was still too big & pushed down on my ears. I compared the brim widths to this child sombrero and they were nearly identical. This hat is nearly identical to Oasis and you can't tell that it is a child's size large.

We bought a medium (3-6 years) for my (then) 2 year old and because of the adjustable elastic around the head she will wear it for many, many years AND my 10 month old can also wear it. We live in Denver, the sun in intense here so we bring it everywhere. The rim is firm and never blocks her line of sight. We've had a few hats with floppy rims and she was constantly tilting her head back to see where she was going. When we go home to Michigan she wears it on the beach and it shades her face, shoulders and back. I am online right now buying one for my 10 month old. Love this hat!

I receive so many positive comments when my 3 yr old is wearing his hat - everyone loves it. Not too hot, but keeps the sun off of his head, face and neck/shoulders. He loves wearing it!

Keeps it shape very well. Hat is lite weight and comfortable. The kids large fits me just fine as an adult.

Great product!

Would have been 5 starts but used the measurements on the site for my sun and it was too small, so get a bigger size

The hat is well made and gives good coverage for my son's face who doesn't like to to put sunscreen on. The only thing is that the hat runs small. I measured his head and ordered one size bigger but there's no room to grow. But we are happy and will buy it again next time.

A very wide brim that ensures no sun shall pass. While splashing at the beach I did notice it has excellent DWR treatment. The medium is just a touch larger than the size small Helios which our child had outgrown. Should have gone with a large.

Bought this for myself, for anytime I'm in the sun. I wear a women's medium. Bought this in a child's large, and it fits just fine, plus it was cheaper than the adult version. It's a great hat...total sun protection! I just wish it had some ventilation. I live in the south and I'm outside 80% of the day. It might not be as important to someone who lives in a cooler climate.

We purchased this hat when another OR hat we wanted was unavailable. My 7 year old daughter loves the hat and likes to wear it (and she tends to be very fussy) so that is the best thing - the fact that it will get used and do its' job shielding her from the sun. Only negative, and this has been mentioned by others, is that it does not have the usual OR crown adjustment so there is no way to adjust the hat to your child's exact measurements. For my daughter, this means that the hat sort of sits on or "floats" on her head. Without the chin strap I'm sure the hat would have been lost already but the chin strap keeps it on even when it is a bit large. Overall, I think it is a good hat but if given an alternative, I'd make sure my next hat had a crown adjustment.
