KAVU Fishermans Chillba Hat

KAVU Fishermans Chillba Hat

Description

The KAVU Fishermans Chillba Bucket Hat is a water resistant and reversible fishing cap. It is made of 100% Nylon and is proudly made in the US. The hat features a toggle closure and a stainless steel ring that holds its shape.

This hat is perfect for hot weather due to its cool print color polyester material. It can keep you comfortable even in scorching temperatures. Additionally, the brim of the hat is designed in a way that prevents it from blowing up in the wind. You can adjust the fit by pulling it tighter under your chin, which stiffens the brim significantly. This means you can wear it confidently even in strong winds, such as while sea kayaking or bush walking.

The color of the chinstrap for the Harbor Blue version of this hat is black.

Washing this hat is not a problem at all. It is completely washable, which makes maintenance and cleaning a breeze. Many users, including myself, own multiple hats from this brand. Even after numerous washes, the hat remains durable and in good condition. The edges may start to fray after several years of use, but this is a sign of its longevity and the amount of use it has received.
