The most sought-after Tilley Hat has a medium-sized brim that snaps up in the Aussie manner. Two colour combinations feature dark underbrims which help to reduce reflection from water, snow and sand. A lifetime investment in sun protection and smart appearance.
-
Appearance: To protect you from the sun and rain, Tilleys fit lower than other hats. This also tends to give one a rather dashing appearance!
For your comfort, they’re held on by gravity, not painful pressure on your forehead. -
Guaranteed for life:
Tilleys are replaced free if they ever wear out, shrink or fall apart. -
Insured against loss:
We’ll replace your late, lamented Tilley at half the catalogue price -
Floats:
A layer of closed-cell foam in the crown, and sometimes in the brim, provides the Tilley’s positive buoyancy. -
Ties On:
The Tilley comes with a tuckaway, adjustable, fore ‘n’ aft Wind Cord. - Repels Rain: Not perfectly but usually quite adequately. The lighterweight Nylamtium™ Tilleys are excellent at repelling rain.
-
Won’t Shrink:“Alex, you can’t make a cotton hat that won’t shrink!”
Me: “But what if we boiled the material first?” They: “Well, I guess that would work.”It did and does. - Repels Mildew: Repels mildew very well.
- Hydriol™ Anti-seal Band: Soft and comfortable, it picks up sweat from your forehead and wicks it away to your temple area where it evaporates.

Certified Sun Protection:
All Tilley Hats have the AMC Cancer Research Center’s highest rating, an ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) of 50+. - Measurements: Front and back of the brim: 2-3/4″; sides: 2-3/8″.
