    Bump Hat Hydro

    This is the bump hat you have been waiting for! I used to use a helmet and wear a cap underneath to get sun protection and I was looking for a bump hat with sun protection, head protection and high viz colour for visibility. The S/M size fit great and true to size - you don't notice it wearing it. The brim is stiff and doesn't blow around in the wind. I use it for Wingfoiling, Windsurfing and Foil Drive and the hat stays on after a high speed crash and in breaking waves. Great product!
