Cool ðŸ˜Ž hat!!!

By David from Warren , PA | August 25, 2021

The Gus hat is really great. If you decide to wet the hat and turn the brims down, just water the brims! This thing soaks up a ton of water! It shrinks when by about 4 hat sizes. It expands back when dry so don’t freak out. Gets floppy in high humidity.

Great hat

By Geelouise from Santa Fe, NM | August 11, 2021

I finally gave up trying to deal with Sunbody direct. Village Hat Shop had the hat in stock. This hat provides excellent sun protection. Good customer service and quick shipping.

River Tubing

By Mitch from Madison, WI | August 10, 2021

This kept me burn free on a 5 hour river tubing extravaganza (sunscreen helped too lol).

The chin strap made it so I didn't worry about if flying off in high winds, and it did get a little wet on the river but mostly maintained it's shape.

I never buy hats because I wear the largest size (8). This was the first hat that I've owned that fit well and did exactly what it was supposed to do.

The craftsmanship was excellent!

Gus Hat

By Rusty from Seguin, TX | July 31, 2021

Great hat! The fit was sized as it was measured. The large brim really blocks out the sin of the son. I really enjoy my palm hat from VHS. Thank you!

Sunbody Palm Leaf

By Sherri from Tehachapi, CA | July 9, 2021

I needed a hat with a wide brim and this is it. Great style with the Gus crown and the rolled brim. Very comfortable to wear. Shipping was fast. I liked this hat so much I ordered a second one to attach to my riding helmet. Thank you so much for such a great product.

An umbrella for your head

By Paul from Marco Island, FL | May 12, 2021

This hat keeps my top half in the shade, which is critical in south Florida’s scorching tropical heat. Plus, I look like one bad hombre. Love it.

Love this hat

By Teresa from , | April 13, 2021

This hat is great if you're in the sun a lot. Nice big brim to block the sun. This is my second hat. Nothing wrong with the first hat I love it so much I wanted two. One for the car and one for the garden.

Sun protection

By Art from Atlantic City , NJ | February 23, 2021

Folks need all the sun protection available and this straw hat has the widest brim for everyday wear, and is not designed just the for the beach with huge floppy brims.

Great Hat!

By Brent from Mountain Center , CA | November 21, 2020

Great sun shade; flexes without denying or losing shape. Very well made. If I could think of a reason to buy a second one, I would - highly recommend.

Well made Hat that fits perfect

By Willie from Keller, TX | August 27, 2020

I have a large 7 5/8 size head and hats that fit right are hard to find especially online. I almost always end up returning the hat or trying to make a hat that does not fit “work”. This hat fits me perfect and is well made and durable. The wide bream is perfect for keeping the sun off your neck and head.

Love this hat!

By Teresa from San Jose, CA | May 31, 2020

It is a bit big, but I still love it! Was delivered on time and as described. Very happy with my purchase.

Great Hat

By Rich from El Paso, TX | April 28, 2020

Great Hat

Gorgeous hat.. loving it!

By Clodagh from Ramsgate England, | April 11, 2020

My Gus Wide Brim Guatemalan Palm Leaf Straw Hat arrived a while back, but haven’t had the sunshine to wear it. Got it out today, beautifully made and smells divine. Perfect for working on the garden and sunbathing. Thank you so much â¤ï¸

Perfect!

By Kim from Dumas, TX | March 26, 2020

This hat is beyond my expectations. I'm loving the very wide brim. It keeps the sun off of my face and shoulders. As someone who has skin cancer, this is very important to me.

Finally a brim wide enough to protect

By Danielle from Bend, OR | March 14, 2020

My husband has searched continuously for a work hat that provides sufficient sun protection while working the ranch. This "Gus Wide Brim" certainly meets that requirement while still letting him look like the cowboy he is.

Bigger is better.

By Maria from Los Angeles , CA | March 11, 2020

Firstly I got my hat the very next day! I’m in LA.
I bought it for Plein Air painting but the very first time I used my hat I went for a 3 hour hike, it did the job! Kept the sun off my face.

Beautiful sun hat!

By Debbie from Yukon, OK | February 25, 2020

Sturdy, big brim. Will wear to OU football games and in the garden. VERY happy with my purchase.

This hat is fabulous!

By Ruth from Preston, MD | February 6, 2020

I LOVE this hat! It's a well made, wide brimmed, ventilated, hand-signed hat - with a leash!; made in Guatemala of Palm leaves. I will totally enjoy this hat while working in my gardens, this year! Thank you for offering such an awesome piece!

Lifesaver

By Tom from Tulsa, OK | June 14, 2019

This hat has a large brim and is perfect for keeping the sun off my face and neck. Plus it is fun and looks good. No skin cancer for me, plus it's fun to show solidarity with my Central American immigrant brothers and sisters by wearing a type of hat associated with the peasantry of those lands.

Gus Wide Brim Hat

By Scott from Medway, MA | March 13, 2019

Excellent hat overall. I bought this for a trip to the islands as I can burn easily. The only issue is that the hat is to big for my head. Soaking in water helped to shape the brim but otherwise still to big. Not sure of a solution other than maybe getting an added sweatband to try to insert. Does Village sell these? Any other suggestions?

Palmleaf strawhat-BIG

By Terry from Sault Ste Marie, | December 26, 2018

fantastic,quality material excellent service promt delivery.highly recommend

My new favorite shader

By Ralph from El Macero , CA | October 19, 2018

Great hat for sun protection and I get compliments on it. I got the big size which was actually a little large. I put some fabric strips inside the liner and it was perfect and very comfortable. As it stretches over time I just add a bit more fabric... Great hat.

Great sun blocking hat for yard work.

By David from Boise, ID | September 26, 2018

Pro: is HUGE! Blocks the sun like an eclipse. Is very light.

Cons: Runs a little big. I wear a sweatband to fix so no big deal.

LOVE IT!

By Rob from Ft Walton Beach, FL | September 12, 2018

I purchased this had for sun protection while fishing/working. Fits and feels great. The hat is rigid enough to stand a good wind without folding back on you. I have worn it everyday since it arrived.

Gus straw hat

By Steven from San Francisco, CA | June 26, 2018

Great hat! Price and quality are tremendous. Delivered on time.

I'm a happy customer.

By Stephan from Gambrills, MD | March 23, 2018

The hat is high quality, true to size, and exactly as presented on the website. It arrived on time in perfect condition. Please accept my compliments all around.

Well-made hat

By Wilson from LAMPE, MO | March 10, 2018

Very well made, needs to be stretched and worn so the perfectly round shape conforms to most people's front-to-rear oval head shape. Cheapo fabric hat band that comes with it will not stay in place. Will provide great shade from the Sun for my skin-cancer-prone complexion while mowing without having to slather-on all that pore-blocking sunscreen.

Perfect....

By Ken from Mount Joy, PA | February 28, 2018

I have a big head (7 3/4). It is very hard to find a hat that fits. This one is Perfect! Very well made, should last a long time.

Great hat

By Joel from Hartsburg, MO | February 15, 2018

I've been looking for a wide-brimmed straw hat that would keep the sun off my neck for years and I finally found it. The fit is perfect and the straw is nice and soft. I purchased in February, so I'll have to wait for warm weather to see how it holds up, but so far I couldn't be happier.

Incredible Mexico Hat!

By TheRickster from Granite Bay, CA | December 6, 2017

I have done a lot of fishing down in Mexico where the temperatures get to over 100 degrees and the sun is relentless. I use to use the straw lifeguard style hats, I wanted something nicer, not as scratchy, and a wider brim to throw more shade on my shoulders. This hat is pure quality. The palm style is so supple yet keeps its shape. It will last a long time, and honestly I will buy it again when that time comes. Worth every penny.
Rick

Excellent service, quality and value priced

By Steve from Blanco, TX | July 20, 2017

I have many cowboy hats but needed a durable hat to block hot texas sun from my neck and face. It only took a few minutes to locate the hat I needed at a reasonable price. I was alerted to the status of delivery and received my new hat within a week. The hat does what I wanted. I will definitely use Village Hat Shop for future purchases. Thank you!

Full shade!

By Shane from West Jordan, UT | July 18, 2017

Doctor ordered no sun for life. This hat provides just that from my collar up--no need for sunscreen. I couldn't find anything locally with a wide enough brim. Thanks for the right product for my need.

This Hat Protected During D.C. Climate March

By Carrie from FRANKFORD, DE | May 2, 2017

It was 91 degrees in D.C. during the April 29, 2017, Climate March. This beautifully functional hat probably kept me from having a heat stroke. Its portable shade provided optimal ventilation. I would recommend this "statement" of a hat to all serious activists.

Order It - Don't Think Twice

By Chad from Pittsburgh , PA | April 10, 2017

I had been thinking about ordering this for the last few summers & finally did. I was looking for a great summer hat to be in the sun in. You can get a $20 straw hat anywhere and it may do the job, and you may get a few summers out of it. This is a whole other experience. It's not straw. It's palm leaf, extremely well made and much larger and better quality than you are going to find. It is great. I don't think you can find a better hat to be in full sun all day in.

Just what we were looking for

By Erin from Olympia, WA | December 12, 2016

Good quality, SPF rated, no frills, arrived promptly. We have been looking for a hat like this in hat shops in every tourist and fishing town we visit. Finally bought him what he's been searching for -- and big enough for his impressive noggin!

Stylish and great sun protection

By Andre from Denver, CO | October 6, 2016

The construction and materials of this hat are super! I find the hat to be quite stylish and the sun protection is awesome.

The GREATEST hat ever

By Mike from Metairie, LA | October 2, 2016

This has got to be the greatest hat that I have ever purchased. The fit was great, the quality was the best and it looks terrific. I have to avoid the sun, and this hat does that and more! Well worth the money.
PS I am not related to this company in any way!

Summer hat

By Mike from Evanston, WY | September 21, 2016

Well made hat out of natural materials. Has the nice wide brim I wanted to keep the sun off me while working outside, yet very airy to keep my head cool.

The "GUS" wide brim hat

By Bill from Tacoma, WA | September 15, 2016

Hat workmanship is suburb. Fit was perfect. The style is ARTFUL & extraordinary. My female neighbor is going to buy a similar hat from "Village Hats". I plan to take this hat to Machu Picchu in two more weeks. It is an awesome sun protector as I have used it for walks and working in my yard thus far. People ask me about it as it is so unique. All around: AAA+++

Exactly What I Wanted

By Bob from Yorktown, VA | September 7, 2016

Well constructed and fits perfectly. My primary worry about ordering a hat online was selecting the correct hat size. But, the measurement guide worked perfectly.

37 Years in orchard business and I finally found the perfect hat.

By Carrie from Frankford, DE | September 7, 2016

Protecting one's face is serious business in our peach/blueberry/melon operation. Wide brim straw hats with a string tie for windy conditions are a must. The Guatemalan Palm Leaf Straw Hat elevates sun protection to an art form, offering shade, comfort, style and practicality all in one. I just wish it had not taken me 37 years to find it!

A lot of size variation

By Rob from Las Cruces, NM | August 22, 2016

This is a great hat, and I've owned several over the years. Once one begins to wear out, I order another. The most recent I received was much larger than the previous hat I received, even though both are marked as a size 8. This is not the end of the world. I am comfortable reshaping the hat with hot water. Important to realize there is a good deal of variation though.

Great hat, size may run a little large

By Ceska from Tulsa, OK | August 16, 2016

This is a great hat, everything I wanted. Although I used a tape measure and ordered the size indicated, the fit is a little larger than expected. I'm not sending it back.

Great sun hat!

By Dean from Reno, NV | July 30, 2016

This was the exact sun hat that I was looking for to do my gardening and yard work in. Love the wide brim and quality product.

Gus Guatamalan

By Ron from Anaheim, CA | July 8, 2016

Awesome hat excellent fit and great service. Perfect for extra protection from the sun

Best hat ever

By Carl from Summerville, GA | June 24, 2016

I work outside everyday and for me this is the best hat ever. The fit was true to size.

Best sun hat money can buy

By John from Fruita, CO | May 29, 2016

I am a plein air painter and I spend hours standing in the sun. This hat is extremely durable, and is like standing in the shade of a big tree. Awesome hat.

Just what I wanted!

By William from Taos, NM | April 27, 2016

I've been trying to find a wide-brim straw like this one ever since I wore out one I'd had for years.

This one is excellent quality, even better than the one I wore out. And good price, especially with their shipping policy.

70 years old and finally got a GOOD hat!!!

By Joe from Hamptonville, NC | April 23, 2016

Put up with crappy straw sun hats all my life. After a bout of sun damage to the skin on my ears I decided I needed a REAL hat. This hat it IT! Great sun protection and great fit. Came 3 days early. VHS is tops!!!

Heaped up, pressed down, and running over with awesomeness.

By Tom from Arlington, TX | March 15, 2016

Way, way better than I hoped. This hat is terrific, and it takes a lot for a Texan to say that about a hat. This is no novelty hat...no light weight fly away. This is the real deal. The brim is wide, the chincord is heavy duty. I'm thinking seriously about buying another just to have one to wear to church.
Yippee tey yea.

Great Christmas present

By Barbara from Chelan, WA | December 25, 2015

My husband loved the hat! Would buy from you again came before the date promised.

Beautiful Hat!

By Kathy from Franklin, TN | November 19, 2015

I love that I received and get to wear a piece of beautifully handmade art...that's what this hat is.

Got the brim I sought.

By Michael from Crockett, CA | September 29, 2015

I love the hat. It has a very wide brim, but that's what I wanted. The first one I received was too big, so I sent it back and ordered a new one; everything in this transaction worked smoothly. The people I worked with online and on the telephone were courteous and helpful. A company that makes it this easy and that has interesting hats is a company to which I'll probably return.

Just what I expected ðŸ˜Š

By Wade from Victoria, BC | September 11, 2015

It took me a while to wait for this very popular hat to be back in stock, but well worth the wait. It provides perfect sun protection and I love it. I should mention here as well that I really appreciated the personal attention that the staff give to you over the phone.Kudos to everyone @ village hats.

Great hat

By Eric from Sacramento, CA | September 6, 2015

Nice looking and sturdy wide-brimmed hat - great for shade in summer sun. Have had a hard time finding such hats - glad you sell them!

Sun Blocker

By Terry from Golden Valley, AZ | August 27, 2015

Works great here in Arizona to keep the sun off. Does not fold up in the wind. Was a little larger than expected, but some folded paper towels behind the hatband sized it right.

All the shade in the world!

By Greg from Seattle, WA | July 20, 2015

Yes, it's high character so you need to be in character. But, geez, talk about strolling under your own private patio umbrella!! Fit true to size at 7 3/4.

A big guy needs a big hat

By Elvis from Coos Bay, OR | July 6, 2015

this hat runs a little large I wear a 7 5/8 s most of time. the one I got was just too large. had to pay to ship it back . called and asked the phone help didnt give me a clue if they had received my return. I waited, next day got an email saying they had shipped the same hat? shipped the correct size after all, love the hat. no hat band like the picture. payed for return shipping was about 1/3 of the price of the hat!!

Monster Shade Hat

By Russell from Loudon, TN | June 23, 2015

One awesome hat. Huge, cool, unique, and lots of shade and comments. Quick shipping. Very pleased with this purchase.

Wide Brim Hat

By Brent from Gardnerville, NV | May 28, 2015

Good construction. Built as advertised. However, the alignment of the formed brim is crooked with the top of the hat. Does not fit completely square on your head as the brim points out of alignment at the front. But it's an outside yard-work hat....so I'm not putting on a fashion show or anything. The tie string is very good quality, but it too sits crooked, so on one side the string is in front of one ear, and behind on the other. I guess I can live with it. Obviously someone missed this entirely on the QC inspection.....if there really was one. Solid straw material. This should last me a long time. Great sunshield!

Perfect!

By Julie from Chippewa Falls, WI | March 27, 2015

I couldn't be more pleased with my purchase. Reasonable price, well made, solid construction. It will be perfect for gardening this summer. I would highly recommend Village Hat Shop and the "Gus Wide Brim".

VERY Satisfied.

By Thomas Kaufman from Protem, MO | February 10, 2015

Definitely a great place to buy hats. Fast shipping and great products. I will definitely do business with them again.

Fantastic hat.

By Joanna from Sydney, Australia, NS | November 25, 2014

Just received my hat in the mail. Can't wait to wear it. The wide brim is going to be fantastic shielding my face from the hot Australian sun.

Sturdy hay

By Deb from Meeker, CO | September 25, 2014

This hat keeps the sun off my face, neck, and shoulders when I am in the garden or just walking in the blazing Colorado sun. It is a wide brimmed hat and very sturdy. I like it very much. I ordered a 6 7/8 which fits snug, but that is ok because it doesn't blow off in the wind and is still comfortable. If you are more fashion conscious you might want to order a 5 inch brim.

Perfect mowing hat

By Jeremy from Washington , OK | August 26, 2014

I love this hat. Perfect for mowing garden work tractor work or anything on the sun. Don't let the six inch brim fool you. I didn't think it would be wide enough it is PLENTY wide. If you are looking for something sombrero sized but western styled then this is the hat for you. Very well constructed. I do not know about durability yet. It is a little small for the size. I would order it 1/8th larger than you need

My ticket to freedom

By Matthew from Hardy, VA | August 20, 2014

I was recently put on a medication that mad me UV sensitive. I began looking for a hat that would provide shade down past the neckline. This hat did it! Now I'm able to resume my normal outdoor activities like grilling, yard work, etc. And it doesn't look tacky...as a matter of fact I've gotten quite a few compliments on it!

Great design!

By Albert from Pierson, FL | July 29, 2014

...And well made. Unfortunately this large brim hat does not look good on a tall thin guy like me. It seems to make the extremes more notable. Nevertheless my neighbors will see the rhyme and reason of it when they see me working out in the yard wearing the hat. But I'm gonna wait till I'm bulked up in winter clothes to wear it.

Finally found ""The"" hat!

Satisfied With Purchase

By Scott from Salt Lake City, UT | July 12, 2014

Overall, I am happy with this hat, and I received a compliment the first time I wore it. Hat fits perfectly, however, I did notice some flaws in the weaving process that hopefully won't turn into an unraveling problem later, but not a significant enough issue to return it at this time.

Perfect plantation hat

By Doug from Oklahoma City, OK | July 10, 2014

I received this hat today via FedEx ground, 7-8 days after the placement of my order. Delivery was quicker than I expected by a week. More importantly, the hat fit perfectly and exceeded my expectations. This hat is ""me"" and I simply love it! I have zero negative remarks to make. The product and its vendor receive my highest recommendation ... for timeliness of shipping and for the quality of the product.

I love this hat!

By Ralph from Mocksville, NC | July 8, 2014

Nice hat - well made - huge brim - just what I wanted!

It's a great hat.

By Dan from Central Point, OR | May 17, 2014

This is the hat I have been looking for for years. It's great, I love the wide brim. Every where I go now I'm walking in the shade.

Great hat for the sun!

By Deb from Spring, TX | May 17, 2014

Going fishing in Canada, and this hat will be great for keeping my fair skin shaded. Beautiful hat and great construction. Recommend it highly!

The largest brim I've ever seen.

By Steve from Danbury, CT | May 15, 2014

When I ordered this hat, I knew it would be larger than some of the other choices on the site, but I had no idea what I was getting myself into. This thing came out of the box looking like a sombrero. When I first put it on, I had trouble walking through doors. Eventually I found out that with a little water and some patience, you can reshape the hat to your personal tastes. I gave it a little curl on either side which made navigating doorways significantly easier. I love the look of the hat, and being from CT, it's pretty much a guarantee that nobody around here has seen anything like it. It's the last hat I'll ever buy for working/playing out in the sun. Here's to summer!

The Greatest Hat You'll Ever Own

By Glen from Chico, CA | April 28, 2014

Village Hat Shop is my GO TO retailer of incredible hats. The Gus wide brim hat does not disappoint in the least. Village shipped it immediately and quickly in a nice sturdy box. When it arrived (quickly, I might add!) the hat was in perfect condition, and fit perfectly as well. I love it, and in the summer heat that we get in Northern California, this will be the PERFECT cover from the blistering sun. I'll be wearing it nearly every day. I was so glad to see that this Gus hat came in 7 7/8; exactly my size, and I will be a repeat client. Thanks Village! I only wish I could post a photo to show how cool it looks on!

SunBody Guatemalen palm leaf

By Phil from San Antonio, TX | April 21, 2014

Best straw hat ever. Perfect for hot weather / sun. Hat can be washed in machine and easily re-shaped. Village hats price is better than the factory website

Superb

By James from Ada, OK | March 17, 2014

This Gus 6"" brim hat is cool and casts a large shade. I started wearing one because my medicine made me very sensitive to the sun. This hat allows me to get out more. I am ordering another one to use when mowing my lawn. I am never forgotten when I shop. Everyone loves my hat. Strangers stop me and ask where they can get one.
