I have been very happy with this company buying a dozen for my husband and self. Also all 5 grandkids have had numerous ones from me. I was pleased for this lifetime replacement of hat. It would be nice if you could send or sell the tearaway clip that broke. I have been unable to find one anywhere.

What a perfect little hat! The color is exactly as you see in the advertisement. The fit couldn’t be better. The way it’s ventilated is great for hot summer days. What is not to love?

It is so pretty and has a more pinky color than the picture. Also love the break away chin strap. It was a congratulation baby gift for big sis.

I purchased this hat as a size up for our 4 year old, who has been rocking the smaller size for most of her life so far and it’s time to pass it on to her sibling. We received the original as a gift and it has been a great companion on many adventures. I was excited to find out this company was from the Pacific Northwest (where I also live) and look forward to the two bucket hats exploring together in style and comfort with excellent sun protection to boot. Cheers.

Impressed!

I bought this hat and the other with the neck guard. So far, we have been wearing this hat. We, her Dad, and I are very impressed. It really does keep the sun out of her eyes and protects her face and ears. Cancer runs very high in our family, so I want her protected. Sunscreen along with hat protection. Dad was very impressed with how well it held up at the water park. He said, " I can't believe how it's not soaking wet." I almost bought a hat from Amazon, but I am glad I found a group that mentioned this brand. Customer for life! Thanks for taking care of all the kiddos 😊.
