The Insect And Sun Repelling Hat

This is the hat that repels insects with a bonded-in repellent while providing UPF 50+ sun protection. The odorless EPA-registered repellent permethrin is bonded to water-repellent 100% supplex nylon fabric, providing effective protection from mosquitoes, ticks, no-see-ums, and black flies without the greasiness, odor, and time-consuming application of sprays or lotions. From Tilley Endurables, Canada's premier purveyor of travel clothing for over 25 years, the hat is sewn by hand with all threads lockstitched so they won't pull loose. Providing 98% UV ray protection, its lightweight 10 1/2"-long neck cape unrolls from an unobtrusive stowed position in the rear to shade the neck from the sun at all angles while its wide, down-sloping 3 1/2" x 2 1/2" brim shields your neck and face from sun and rain. A 3/4" mesh band near the top and a moisture-wicking headband keep your head cool. The crown has a hidden pocket, and an adjustable cord secures the hat in breezy conditions. Crushable and packable, the hat maintains its insect repellent effectiveness through 70 washings. Khaki.
