Sun Protection Hats - UPF 50+

Crafted using UPF-rated materials, our SPF 50 hats shield your skin from 98% of harmful UVA and UVB rays—so you can enjoy outdoor living with peace of mind. Whether you're relaxing at the beach, playing a round of golf, or enjoying a sunny lunch outdoors, a UPF sun hat is your perfect companion for sun-smart living.

The Need for Quality UPF Hats

Sun protection isn't just for summer—UV rays are present all year round, even on cloudy days. And while sunscreen helps, it’s not always practical or long-lasting. This is where UPF hats make all the difference.

• UPF 50+ rated materials block out 98% of UV rays
• Protects key areas like your scalp, face, ears, and neck
• Complements sunscreen as a physical barrier for longer-lasting protection
• Especially important for sensitive skin and high UV index regions like Australia
• Ideal for daily wear, holidays, gardening, sports, and outdoor events

If you're spending time in the sun, a UPF sun hat or SPF 50 sun hat is an essential part of your protective wardrobe.
