Why We Like The Outdoor Research Seattle Rain Hat
Hiking in wet weather calls for a bit of extra protection. The Outdoor Research Seattle Rain Hat is one of our favorite hats to wear when hiking in the rain. The 3L GORE-TEX membrane ensures the water doesn't get through and keeps everything underneath the three-inch flat brim dry. An adjustable and removable chin strap allows us to adjust our fit, and a hook-and-loop panel on the side of the temple allows the brim to fold up at the side when the weather clears.

Great hat! Bring back the ear flaps please!
I initially bought this hat for kayaking in the southeastern US, and it's great for that regional combination of broiling sun and expected rain. So now, I live in southeast Alaska, and it's perfect for what people call the "Juneau Rain Festival" (1 January - 31 December :) ). It's also great in the chilly weather because I have the older model that has the fold-down fleec ear flaps. Wish they'd bring those back because I sure could use a new one.

Iconic paddlers headware.
I have had this hat for over 14 years and use it primarily for kayaking. When property fitted to my head, it stays on even with rolling and strong headwinds. This IS ONLY go-to hat when I paddle (it is my signature clothing). Unfortunately, after all these years of sunshine, salt, and surf I must retire it and purchase another.
