The most stylish floppy-brim hat tested — friends and strangers alike consistently picked it over every competitor. Built from durable DWR-treated cotton, it goes from backcountry trails to coffee shop patios without missing a beat.
If you want a floppy hat that doesn't look like you raided a fishing supply store, this is it. Filson's Summer Packer is the rare outdoor hat that men actually want to wear in public.
“The Summer Packer is a durable, extremely comfortable choice that seems to look great on everyone who wears it. It is just as wearable on a multi-day wilderness trek as it is on a coffee shop patio in your hometown.”

“We found this material to be breathable enough to keep us comfortable even on hot days. While there is no mesh in the crown, there are four eyelet vents on either side of the hat, and these provide great airflow.”
