“This hat was a gift for a relative who needs sun protection while in Southern California. Don’t think he’s had an opportunity yet to use it but he seemed to like it.”
“I have a 7 1/4" head. The Shelta Osprey is perfect. Kayaking, hiking and general wearing around the yard. It keeps rain a d sun off my face. Lightweight, doesn't require readjusting line a ballcap. Out of the way brim. I just wish I could snap up the sides at times. Overall, I love the hat. Highly recommend getting this one!”
“Super happy with the Shelta Hats. I have the Osprey and the Seahawk and love them both. The stiff bill holds shape when wet and provides perfect sun protection. Great on and off the water, you will not be sorry you have one or more of these hats in you hat quiver! Tons of features to maximize their value.”
“Love The Osprey - performing as promised. Doing lots of kayaking - stiff brim doesn’t fold in the wind, blocks sun without feeling too big. I like the stingy brim on the sides and back - when not needing sun shade I often wear the hat backwards, stingy brim in front looks cool. Thinking of getting another for my kayaking wife!”
“It's a great product. I use to live in Huntington Beach but moved to the midwest and purchased this hat for doing yard work and occasional jet ski ridding in FL or Lake Erie. The hat serves it's purpose well but not a hat you want to wear around in public. If they can make this hat more hybrid for sports and going out in public on a Sat. or Sun afternoon then I would give it a try.
Thanks.
