Great hat!
Such an easy hat to wear! For the moment it lives in the car so I can always have it if I need it! I was worried that the size (L) might not be right but it seems ok for now.

Our wool is sourced from small-lot farms in Australia. We source short, low-quality fibres the fashion industry doesn't use and turn them into high-quality felt products designed to last the extra mile.
Wool is natural, biodegradable, recyclable, renewable, and odour-resistant. It naturally regulates temperature, meaning it's warm in winter and cool in summer.
We use natural fibres that fit within natural carbon cycles. We only use synthetic fibres where a natural alternative is unavailable so that it won't cost the earth later. We don't mix fibres so that we can separate components for reuse or recycling.
Our team works hard to get your order packed and on its way to you within 2 business days.
Please note, this excludes weekends and public holidays. During promotions or Christmas time, dispatch may take a little longer.
Shipping timeframes begin once your order has been dispatched and are in addition to our processing time.

Firstly, I want to say a huge thank you to the WILL+BEAR team. I ordered the wrong hat for my trip. The team couldn’t be more helpful every step of the way in getting me the correct hat in time. Super responsive! Fantastic company. Five stars.

I love my hat, but it was too big. I ordered the inserts, which arrived very quickly, and the hat was perfect.

When I travel in warmer climates I like to wear a full brimmed hat for sun protection and I have been looking for some time for one that not only looks good but is good quality and packable. This hat ticks all those boxes. It's comfortable to wear and has good sun protection. I am looking forward to giving it a good workout in Turkey and Croatia next month!
