      Like all OR products, this is a top end and expensive product for those who can appreciate how much aggravation not having one can give you in the field.

        This is a very useful thing even just for mornings walks through a park. It is very light and stylish. The only nuisance I could point out is the black mesh which might make you sweat while in the woods or getting up hill.

          Comments about Outdoor Research Bug Bucket Hat:

          Last summer in a campground in West Yellowstone, the mosquitoes were as bad as I've ever experienced (during the daylight hours). Fortunately, I had a bug headpiece. After that experience, I decided a net/hat combination would be good to have. I usually wear a size XL, but this XL is really too large (I'm keeping it anyway, since I'll wear it only when I have to.).

                            The netting on the hat is perfect when outside while the bugs are biting. I was skeptical on whether the hat would actually work and it definitely covers the head and neck area well with netting to keep the biters at bay. Thank you for a great product! Well worth the money.
