What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I wore the Lowcountry Hat through a full week of warm-weather wade fishing and it held its shape even after getting splashed and set down wet a dozen times. The wide brim kept the sun off my face and neck all day, and the Fishpond webbing band gives it a look that feels right at home on the water or off it."Long days on open water or sun-baked flats have a way of humbling anyone who shows up underprepared for the heat. The Fishpond Lowcountry Hat answers with a wide 4. 25-inch brim and a UPF 50+ equivalent rating that keeps the sun honest from first light to last cast. Woven from authentic Mexican palm by a third-generation family-run factory, it carries the weight of a 5,000-year tradition of palm hat construction and the kind of craftsmanship that shows in every detail of the finished piece. The high, rounded crown breathes naturally in warm conditions, and the signature Fishpond webbing accent band gives the Lowcountry its own distinct character among a sea of generic sun hats. Handmade with renewable materials by skilled artisans, it brings a timeless warm-weather silhouette to the water, the trail, and anywhere else the sun is a factor.
