      First day I wore it, the temperature was well into th 90's, and I was doing masonry work. For once, my neck was not burned, or my thinning hairline bright red. Actually forgot I was wearing it.

            This is my second hat - same size and style. Bought it for the beach, but use if for hiking, camping, fishing (even in the rain) and it works out nicely. I understand the meshing is an issue for side snaps for the brim, but they would be nice. However, the neck cord will hold up the sides.

                          Comments about Outdoor Research Transit Sun Hat:

                          I bought this hat three years ago and use it several times a week hiking the trail at a mountain park where I volunteer. The venting allows sweat to evaporate and keeps my head cool. Since the vented section doesn't extend to the front, my bald head receives protection from the sun while still keeping my head cool. I've worn it in high winds and the strap has kept the hat on my head without a problem. I wash the hat in a washing machine (just thrown in with a load of laundry) on a regular basis and hang it to dry and it hasn't shrunk. This is a great sun hat.

                                There is a cinch cord at the back of the hat that will adjust out or tighten. A hat size of 7 5/8 is well within the head size that this hat will accommodate.

                              How well does this hat pack, is it foldable? Will the brim lay flat after it is in you back back for two days or can you crush the top down flat and will it return back to shape and stay. If it get wet and is crush down will it reform back to a nice shape? Thanks.
