Anyone recommend a fully brimmed hat that breathes? I have a Tilley LTM6 and find that it doesn't breath well at all. Ideally, the entire upper part of the hat would be mesh except the flat part directly over your head.

I have the Riverz Outback and have backpacked in it in the muggy Arkansas Ouachita Mountains. The things last a very long time and are stylish. THey will not be rainproof.Feb 22, 2013 at 3:56 pm #1957493I really like my white rock oasis
Comes in a lot of colors and a few different fabrics, cheap to import from the uk, but I did have to put my own chin strap on it
