Our Favorite Straw Sun Hats for the Next Heatwave

Our Favorite Straw Sun Hats for the Next Heatwave

In San Diego, we live in our hats during the summer. Barefoot? Sure. But, a straw hat with a wide enough brim to keep cool outside is a must. We know how important adding some naturally occurring Vitamin D to our routine is, while still being mindful of harmful UV rays when we’re out and about enjoying those longer, hotter, summer days. Currently, we have four different UPF 50+ hat styles in our rotation for all of the sunshine filled outings you have planned - from a weekend getaway up the coast, to lounging poolside. 

 

The Bo rancher is a sophisticated beach hat when you want to look pulled together, and a chic sun hat when you’re heading to happy hour before sunset. The wide, 4” brim is stiff so it perfectly covers your face when worn securely above the forehead, making this rancher style a great option for the outdoors. Part of our premium tripilla straw collection, the Bo sun hat provides UPF 50+ sun protection.

Bo Rancher $ 125
The Rio straw visor is a summer staple, especially for regular sunbathers. At an approachable price point, this straw visor would make a great gift for a mom, or a friend who’s planning a sun soaked vacation. The brim length is 5.5” so it’s truly full coverage, shielding the entire face. The Rio visor is also adjustable to accommodate most sizes with a convenient velcro strap whether your hair is up in a messy bun or pulled back in a casual style.

 The Moonlight style is not your average sun hat. Featuring a cattleman crown and toasted caramel tripilla straw color, the Moonlight is a fun alternative to a cowboy hat or fedora style that offers UPF 50+ protection with a structured 4” brim.

Moonlight Straw Hat $ 99

 

The Cove straw fedora is the sun hat that looks good on everyone. This is the ‘California inspired’ hat style that you will find yourself picking up day after day to effortlessly top off any outfit. The stiff, 4” brim size offers UPF 50+ protection, and the overall design has been handcrafted using premium quality tripilla that’s been sustainably harvested and sourced.

Our genuine leather hatbands are also a fun, affordable option to update your sun hat throughout the summer, so it feels like you are wearing a new style with every outfit. The Leah hatbands are available.
