Reviews

Classy and Functional

"This was the best purchase I could’ve made this summer. The material is lightweight and the brim covers my face and the back of my neck comfortably. It has an adjustable tie on the inside of the hat to fit comfortably to your head size. It looks effortlessly classy and very easy to style for the season. I’ve received several compliments on it already!"

Flattering hat

"I purchased the Provence Wide Brim Sun Hat for a trip. It is very flattering to the face and gives complete coverage - happy that it comes in two sizes ( mine is small and SPF 50) I haven’t packed it yet, so am a little concerned that it is actually crushable and pops back to shape. Very nice construction and material- looks very classy! The only thing that I would have liked more was a chin strap for windy days - the large brim will surely catch the wind & blow off! I will take it to the tailor to see if they can install grommets under the ribbon for a strap, and make my own."

I love the quality of

"I love the quality of this hat! You can style it with a cute summer dress, shorts, or even a swimsuit it goes with everything and fits perfectly. The best part is that keeps you protected from the sun by shielding your face and neck. Stylish and practical"

Nelea D. (5/5)

Sun protection with style

"I attended an event during an event held in the middle of the day during the summer. The wide brim saved my face and my eyes from having the sun directly shining on me. Multiple family members came up to me and told me that I looked "regal" and "like a lady" with this hat. Told them it was Solbari!"

Melissa E. (5/5)

Finally a perfect fit!

"I have a very hard time finding hats to fit my head, but have been absolutely delighted with this Provence hat. I wore it in Ireland and Paris this month and could not have been more pleased. I felt feminine and stylish, but also knew I had excellent sun protection for my face (that had just had a laser treatment the month before!)."

Heather P. (5/5)

Love this hat!

"This hat provides me with the sun protection I was looking for but still looks very stylish. I have a very small head and usually have to wear children's hat but this one allows me to tighten it so that it fits perfectly."

Kelly M. (5/5)

Great coverage!

"Pleasantly surprised with this hat. I have a small head and short hair & finding flattering hats is usually super difficult. Add in good sun coverage and nearly impossible…until this hat! Love it. Fits really well & provides superior sun shade around the whole head. I got the darker brown which almost seems to skew more reddish but not enough to bother me. Would consider ordering the lighter shade too if I was a big hat person."

Ashley C. (5/5)

Amazing!

"I LOVE this hat! I am not normally a hat person, but I'm taking medication that makes me very sensitive to the sun, so this seemed necessary. The quality of this hat is outstanding, and the fit is perfect. It fits my head without adjustment but the little tie in the brim to adjust it works well if you need it. I've gotten compliments on this hat already and can't wait to wear it all summer!"

Rebecca L. (5/5)

Thank you for making large hats!

"I have a large head and I am so grateful Solbari makes cute sun hats to accommodate that! This is the first raffia hat I've found that fits. I don't normally love how I look in hats but this looks even cuter on than in the pictures. It's definitely a dressier look than the Solbari cloth hats if you're looking for that."

Jenny (5/5)

Provence Wide Brim hat is

"Provence Wide Brim hat is meeting all of my expectations. Great comfort and adjustable hat, wide enough to give thorough sun coverage at the pool and very stylish with the black ribbon around the brim. A few people have asked where I bought my hat."
