FAQs
Is this hat suitable for very hot weather?
While the hat is breathable, it is fully waterproof, which can make it warmer than a standard canvas hat in extremely hot and dry conditions. It is best suited for temperate to cool weather, or when rain protection is needed.
How do I adjust the fit?
The hat features a toggled adjustor, usually located at the back. Pull the toggle to tighten the fit around your head and release to loosen.
What is the pocket for?
The front-facing pocket is designed to hold very small, lightweight items such as a single key, a small coin, or a folded receipt.
Can I machine wash this hat?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the waterproof membrane and the hat's structure. Hand clean with a damp cloth as per the care instructions.
What does 'Aquasealz technology' mean?
Aquasealz is Sealskinz's proprietary technology that makes the product fully waterproof while remaining breathable.
Does this hat offer UV protection?
Yes, the Lynford bucket hat provides UV protection, making it suitable for sunny days as well as rainy ones.
What other colors are available?
While this guide focuses on the Yellow variant, the Sealskinz Lynford Bucket Hat is available in a range of other colors, including green, blue, and cream/green.
Troubleshooting
Hat is not fully waterproof
Ensure all seams are intact. Check for damage to the waterproof membrane. If damage is present, the hat may need replacement. Clean the hat according to care instructions to ensure pores are not blocked.
Hat feels too tight or too loose
Adjust the toggled drawstring at the back of the hat for a personalized fit. Ensure the toggle is secured properly.
Reduced breathability
The hat's breathability may be reduced if the waterproof membrane is clogged with dirt or debris. Gently clean the hat with a damp cloth and mild soap, then rinse thoroughly and air dry.
Discoloration or material degradation
Avoid exposing the hat to direct sunlight for extended periods or harsh chemicals. Follow the recommended care instructions for cleaning and drying.
