Women Sunday Afternoons Bug Helios Hat

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Innovative headnet that keeps the wee beasties at bay, that can be stashed in the hat when not in use

Outdoor Research says

Our best-selling sun hat + bug protection. Updated to have a wider brim and a more discreet mesh stash pocket.

Our Verdict

A wide-brimmed hat, that has a bug net stashed in a side pocket. When deployed the bug net is not constrictive and has a drawcord to make sure no insects can get in underneath.  Comfortable and lightweight, it’s easy to forget it also has additional insect protection until you need it. If you’re headed anywhere in the highlands in summer this is a must.  .
