It’s no secret that sunburns are annoying, but did you know they can also have long-lasting negative effects on your health? For this reason, sun protection is one of the chief concerns among today’s hat buyers. Whether working outdoors or headed for a fun day at the beach, you should be protected; and the best way to protect your ears, eyes, neck, and face is with a hat. Hats Unlimited has an extensive selection of hats with large, tightly woven brims to give great sun protection as well as many hats with
UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) fabrics. No matter your age or activity level you will find a hat to suit your tastes with well-loved brands like
Dorfman Pacific,
Henschel, and
Adams.
What's a Sun Protection Hat?
Many hat styles can be considered sun protection hats. Typically, sun protection hats have large or small brims that surround the entire diameter of the hat to shield your head and shoulders from direct sunlight. Some protect against ultraviolet (UV) rays depending on their material.
What Hats Are Available?
At Hats Unlimited, we carry protective sun hats for men from many brands and in many colors, styles, degrees of UV protection and sizes. The brands we offer include well-known names such as Bullhide, Saint Martin, Kooringal, Conner Hats, Stetson Hats, Scala, Tilley and more. Our styles range from baseball caps, baseball caps with added protection, bucket, gambler, lifeguard, Boonie, Panama and blends of these styles. UV protection hats also come in many colors, including black, white, stone, khaki, navy, camo and more.
They can come in their natural material colors, too, free of dyes. These hats can also be made with materials that contribute to a high UPF rating or material that's more breathable. These materials range from hemp — which is naturally resistant to UV rays — to other traditional materials such as rush, buffalo or wool felt.
Manufacturers will base a hat's UPF rating on the materials used, among other things. This can lead to a UPF of 50+, which is the highest rating. However, just because a hat isn't UPF-rated doesn't mean it can't give you a viable amount of protection. Men's hats with UV protection are for everyone, and come in many sizes, from small to 2XL. Our men's sun hats come in a variety of brim sizes, too, for function or fashion.
What Is This Hat Good For?
These hats are stylish and made to protect you from the sun's harmful rays. If you're planning to go out fishing all day in the hot sun, you'll want something with a higher UPF rating. If you're just going to mow the grass, a lower rating will suffice.
For instance, Adams offers a baseball cap with neck and shoulder protection in their Extreme Outdoor Cap. This hat offers premium sun protection and has a 50+ UPF, meaning it will stand up to 99% of ultraviolet rays.
No matter the occasion or environment, our hats will stand up to the heat. Many of these hats can double as functional and formal, so if you need a hat for working in the sun or one that can serve as a fashionable accessory for a night out, we can help.
