(3 customer reviews)

£44.95

Clear
SKU: EH006-breton

The Emthunzini Breton Sun Hat is a UPF50 wide brim sun hat designed for stylish, reliable sun protection. It offers generous coverage while still feeling easy and wearable. As a result, it works just as well for everyday wear as it does for travel.

The wide brim carries UPF50 certification, helping to protect your face, neck and shoulders from harmful UV rays. You can wear the brim turned up for a relaxed look or flattened for maximum shade. This versatility makes the UPF50 wide brim sun hat easy to style across seasons and settings.

Soft, lightweight materials keep the hat comfortable throughout the day and its crush-resistant design makes it ideal for packing. Simply fold it into your bag, then reshape it when you arrive.

Whether you’re at the beach, in the garden or exploring a new city, this UPF50 wide brim sun hat balances protection with ease. It’s a practical choice that still feels considered and well designed.

How to Measure Your Head for the Correct Hat Size

To measure your head for the correct hat size, place a flexible measuring tape or piece of string around your head. Position it about 1 cm above your ears and across the middle of your forehead. Keep the tape level all the way around and snug, but not tight.  If you use string, lay it flat and measure the length in centimetres. This gives you your head measurement and helps you find the right hat size.

Finding Your Hat Size

Once you know your head measurement, match it to the closest hat size in our range. If your measurement falls between two sizes, choose the larger size. This ensures a comfortable fit and makes the hat easier to wear all day.

Fine-Tune the Fit with Internal Size Adjustment

Our hats include an internal drawstring or Comfy-Fit Clip elastic band. This allows you to adjust the fit by up to 1.5 cm. You can fine-tune the size for comfort without changing the shape or structure of the hat.

    This is such a fabulous useful hat. Super stylish, great shape with a perfect sized brim and foldable so its easy to pack without crushing
    Lovely company to deal with, so helpful. Highly recommend

  2. Emma (verified owner) –

    I love my new navy hat. It’s smart, easily dressed up with a scarf, flowers, or ribbon, actively protects against UV rays, and is made of comfortable material which keeps its shape very well. Pack with rolled up clothing under the crown; I promise you it’s very forgiving. The discreet, flat drawstring inside to make it fit snugly is a very practical feature. Highly recommended.
    I also want to thank Creative Dezigns, Nikki and her team, for 5 star customer service.

    I love this hat, really seems to work and is smart! I have a cream one. Could use a darker colour too for gardening etc as I don’t want to adjust my cream one with muddy fingers!
