from 168 reviewsMy Sunward Bound hat protects my face and ears from sunburn. It fits well and has great straps to anchor it in windy weather. I can wear it in and out of the water. I love the compartment in the 'lid' - it protects my sun glasses whilst I'm in the ocean.
My second SB hat as I need this colour in my
world. Great fit. Survives my many wipeouts. The absolute best at keeping the glare away as well as my protecting my face from the sun.
Weird fact about me: great hats make me calm. This hat makes me calm. And has a chin strap, so it doesn’t come off in the wind or water. It’s a bloody ripper.
I’ve tried a few brands of surfs hats and this is by far the best. I have a very small head and have found a hat that actually fits and doesn’t come off every time you go under water. Also the designs are just gorgeous x
I love my Coffee Cruiser hat, it is the perfect surf hat, it matches everything and I love using it both in and out of the surf. It's great for windy beach days as it doesn't fly off like a normal bucket hat and it's insanely durable. I'M OBSESSED. This colourway is a great option for both guys and girls. I LOVE IT.
Super cute retro design to match my cosies, I get compliments every time I wear it! Very well made, high quality stitching and clasps and a well thought through design with the hidden key pocket and water drainage vents - 100% would recommend and will be buying more as pressies for friends!
The most comfortable and soft wetty I've ever worn, it doesn't even move or ride up at all. Felt like a super suit in the surf, I caught so many more waves, and not to mention it is sustainably made, you are supporting a small bizz and it looks so so cute on!
This is my third hat from Sunward Bound! They are so pretty and most importantly, they stay put!! I've spent good amount of money and time to find cute and practical surf hats before I found SB and now I'm happily settled with SB hats!! Literally they make surfing more fun and enjoyable! Highly highly recommend!! :)
I used this hat at cloud break in Fiji 2-3+ ft (traditional) a well respected surf lineup, the hat held its shape well did not flop and stayed on my head! Its the only hat I can duck dive with. I’ve had this hat for 2 years now and had no issues; no seams coming loose, still in shape, fashionable as hell. Recommended for everyday wear. The brims are wide enough to keep sun out of my face and small enough to not have any obstruction of view. I use this hat as a water videographer/photographer and the colours help me be seen more in the line up! And who wouldn’t want a sunflower hat!?
I absolutely LOVE my hat! I purchased it for a trip to Sri Lanka and I wore it every day in the surf. It shielded my face from the sun, protected my eyes from the mid-morning sun glare, it maintained it's shape amongst the wipeouts and I felt fun and fabulous wearing it! I got many compliments too. Thank you Sunward Bound!

Not only can I go on about how amazing Sunward Bound surf hats are, how they don’t fall off in the surf, are comfy and cute, I could also talk forever about how amazing the brand and person behind it all is too. Not only are you going to own possibly the only functional and cute surf hat ever, you’ll also be supporting a beautiful small biz with socially conscious values 🤍

Seriously the best surf hat I’ve ever had and it’s Super cute, amazing!! I’ve had some really good wipeouts in this hat and it still stays on my head! A 10 star rating from me

Wore mine for the first time today, passed the wipeout test, kept my hair out of my face even after bombing out - something that really drives me mad!! I got out and my hair was so much less tangled than usual. Saaa Good.

I bought three of your surf hats a few months ago for myself and my twin 17-year-old daughters. They are awesome! We really love your hats, especially on blazing hot southern California summer days! They perform better than any surf hat that I've ever worn and they never impede your vision while paddling into the wave. I also like that the brim is solid all the way and not floppy in the back. It gives just the right amount of sun coverage without limiting your view. Every time I wear one of your hats, I get inquiries and comments about "where did you get that hat?!"
