Some sailors favour a bucket hat for sun protection and glare reduction on the water. It’s a practical choice – less prone to flapping in the breeze than a broad-brimmed hat, and less likely to get blown off your head when you’re looking up to check the set of the mainsail.
Our Castell bucket hat is quick-drying and water repellent, with UPF-50 sun block protection. The retention cord stops it going overboard when you’re sailing in strong winds, and is easily removable for use in calmer conditions. The lightweight fabric also floats if it does end up in the sea.
- Lightweight 100% polyester fabric
- Quick drying and water repellent
- Shields from harmful sun rays with UPF 50 protective finish
- Retention cord is fully removeable for versatility
UPF 50
Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) measures the amount of UV light that passes through fabrics. Our soft and superlightweight fabrics provide comfortable protection from UV light.
Quick Dry
Quick dry fabrics do not absorb sweat, but transfer it quickly to the surface of the clothes and evaporate it through air circulation. On average quick-dry fabrics dry 50% faster than cotton fabrics.
