Wallaroo Hat CompanyWomen’s Scrunchie Sun Hat – UPF 50+, Ultra-Lightweight, Packable for Every Day, Designed in Australia.

Good quality and internal ribbon to adjust head size

I bought this in the grey with white dots colourway and it's lovely - I have pigmentation problems on my face (melasma) so as soon as the sun comes out in late spring I wear a hat outside in the garden. I've owned a lot of big brimmed hats over the years and this is the lightest weight I've tried, so my hair gets less sweaty than with previous styles which is great - i'd say I have an average sized head and without adjusting the drawstring at all I can fit it on whilst my hair is in a ponytail without ending up with a headache as I've experienced with other sunhats which is a total boon. It folds down very neatly so is ideal for in a bag/car glove compartment for unexpectedly sunny periods as well as taking up very little space in a suitcase. As others have mentioned although there is a wire in the edge of the brim to stop it flopping down onto your face and for basic shaping purposes, it's very thin and with any wind it still flaps about but this is the downside of a big brim in a packable style, I suppose. I'm interested to see how the wire holds up over time as I've only had mine for a month and I've seen a few reviews which mention the wire failing after a while. I need a second new hat this summer and based on this one I've decider to get another Wallaroo (the casual traveler) which is also packable, has the same upf 50 rating but does not have a wire, just in case it does break as my scrunchie will get folded a lot to go in my handbag.

Hat as expected , you have to pull strings in to fit but keeps sun off which is the main thing. Material and make good.

It is rollable, but it is hard to get a good brim shape once unrolled. Also, it is so plain--would love a colourful band or ribbon round it. I have added a chin strap to prevent it blowing away, using a shoelace and an adjuster clip from a jacket. It's a good size and should keep me from sun burn. Haven't used it yet; hope it will prove to be worth its hefty price!

Just received my hat yesterday. SUPER disappointed. For this price I was expecting a nice hat. The seams are really poorly sewn several places, the wire in the brim offers no support for the brim at all (it all just collapses) and the hat is also quite small in the pull.I thought I was buying a quality item, not so. The top I bought from China for £12 looks super nice in comparison...

A good looking, light weight hat that does the job well as it shades the face and the back of the neck. The brim can be shaped a little so that it is more flattering to wear than the photo indicates! I kept it rolled up in a bag for a fortnight and yet it still looks as good as new. The only negative is the brim does tend to flap in your eyes if it's windy.

Unfortunately i don't take to the sun that well so i do need a hat.This was brilliant and it recently had a test run in Spain this year - didn't get a headache or my head didn't feel hot under the hat like most hats make you head feel.The hat folds away in my bag really easily and was never misshapen when i took it out of my bag to wear.

one of the best hats i could find for travel as it wraps up into nothing wont damage it, and its washable unlike paper hats. However if its windy can be a pain in the backside as it flops around everywhere in your eyes. I dont mind putting up with that though. Oh and it covers all my face my shoulders down to bottom of my neck which is great for cutting down on expensive/toxic suncream.
