Frontier Full Canvas Wide-Brim Hat, UPF50+:
From the first time we held the first khaki prototype of the Frontier Ultimate UPF50+ Full Canvas Hat in our hands, we knew we had designed a timeless classic. The look, feel, and functionality of this full canvas Frontier hat bridges the gap between explorers of yesteryear and every person who cares to adventure in the outdoors, to go beyond their front door. With all-over, full canvas UPF50+ sun protection, unique style-your-hat design, flat-pack construction, and tweakable sizing, this hat is sure to become your new go-to favorite.

- 360-degree, wide brim for best protection from the harmful effects of the sun. Brim measures 3.15" (8cm) for all sizes, measured from outer edge of the brim to the base of the crown.

- Made from durable 12-oz safari-grade cotton canvas in safari-suitable colors to make sure you always blend in. Khaki, Dark Brown, and Olive are our recommended colors for walking safaris.
- Water repellent finish is applied to the canvas fabric.
- Flat-packable foam brim construction, which adds an element of buoyancy too the hat.
- Adjustable internal drawstring within the sweatband helps you to tweak the fit should you need to.
- Detachable and toggle-adjustable chin strap.
- Detachable and interchangeable braided leather hat band - style the hat your way, with or without the braided leather hat band. You are also able to buy other colors of leather braid made for the Frontier hat range to change the color of the braid you wear with your hat.
- UPF50+ protection for the whole hat due to the full canvas design - as proven in an independent test by Intertek. In the tests, Intertek found that the 'Mean Ultraviolet Protection Factor UPF' score for the hat came to 2,000; and the blocking percentage for the hat is 99.95% for both UV-A and UV-B. This exceeds the 98% threshold for UPF50 and so the rating for this hat is UPF50+. Please always back up the sun protection provided by your hat by using an effective sunscreen lotion or spray.
- Made and styled for men, women - and for older children too. Please use the size chart to determine the size to order for the best fit.
- Packing advice: the Frontier hat is made to be flat-packable and this is how we pack the hat when we travel. Place the hat flat into your luggage and make sure that the brim stays as flat as possible. The canvas crown is packed level with the brim. It is very important that no items crush the brim, nor the crown. Some creasing of the fabric may occur. While it is up to your personal preference, we do not mind if the canvas creases slightly when we travel with the Frontier Full Canvas Hat as, over time, creasing reduces as you wear the hat. After all, the main purpose of the hat is to protect you from the sun, with the flat-pack function adding to the convenience of traveling with this hat.
