Stetson Lobo 10X Straw Cowboy Hat

As soon as I left the house the hat was praised. Perfect fit!

Super comfortable and excellent ventilation with excellent sun protection. It’s a joy to wear. Super comfortable for hot sunny days to keep a white bald head safe and not burned. I like that it’s a light color for good skin toning but not tanning, no burning, just a light ‘toning’,… which is a great thing, and not causing lily white skin due to a denser and/or darker hat protection. It’s the right kind of balance. I’m a landscape contractor in the sun for much of the day. I stay healthy.

I bought this hat to provide shade from the sun while maintaining our yard several hours/week. It does a great job of that and the vents are surprisingly effective. I’m much cooler with the hat on in addition to being protected from sunburn. Wife says it’s a handsome hat, too! 😉

Regarding fit, Stetson hats have a well-deserved reputation for being more rounded than many heads. In my case, it’s a little tight in the front & back and slightly loose on the sides. I like it because it doesn’t fly off in a moderate breeze.. If I wore it primarily indoors I would want to reshape it.

I’ve worn Stetson hats for many, many years and have developed high expectations for them. This hat did not disappoint. Fit as expected, is well vented, looks great, and is high quality (after a few wearings I expect a long life as I experienced with the Stetson that it is replacing). Would give high recommendations.
