      Perfect for me here in

      Perfect for me here in Los Barriles, Baja, Mexico at my Kite & Wing school. www.wahoowind.***. Keeps the sun off my face whilst teaching and I can ride with confidence whatever the discipline. It also keeps my Shox headset in place which is a real bonus.

      The hat is good overall, but even the largest size feels quite snug. The plastic protective insert barely fits inside, leaving the fabric stretched very tightly. I hope this won’t cause it to wear out or become damaged too quickly. I was also disappointed by the unexpected €20 charge upon delivery, despite having already paid for shipping. I assume this was a customs charge because I ordered from Italy, but for transparency, the possibility of additional fees should be clearly stated at checkout. In the end, I paid €86 for this hat, and I’m not sure it’s worth that price.

      All good so far, hat

      All good so far, hat looks great and fit well. But it fills like the shell part is not big enough for me (my head size is 60 cm) and not strong enough. But time will tell. Thank you.

      In Japan, almost no one

      In Japan, almost no one wears a helmet while surfing. 
I do use a GATH in dangerous spots, but it really stands out. 
SurfShell is very useful because it protects my head without drawing attention. 
I was worried that having a built-in helmet might make me look bulky, but when I actually put it on, it fits neatly. It doesn’t make me look big at all.

      I have a very big

      I have a very big head. I measured my head to be just within the size of their largest hat. I measured very carefully. It is very TIGHT and possibly too tight to wear. I will see if I can stretch it to be comfortable after a few uses. The strap is too SHORT to close under my chin so I have to modify that somehow as well. I think that may be a flaw because it is too short to make sense. Also the plastic "protective shell" was installed backwards. Not a big deal to reverse. If you have a big head like me and it pushes the upper end of the measurement. . . beware. If I had a tiny head like you I would probably love the hat.

      I absolutely love my new surf hat. It is so fashionable, fits really well, stays in place, blocks the sun, allows for my headphones, protects my skull, and my people can always find me out there. Like it so much I ordered a second one!

      The concept is great, but

      The concept is great, but the inner protective shell really needs improvement. As installed, the open part of the shell sits at the back, which creates uncomfortable pressure on the forehead. I actually found it much more comfortable after turning the shell around, which makes me wonder if it’s a generic shell designed for another product rather than specifically for this surf hat. Another issue is that the shell doesn’t stay securely attached inside the hat and often comes loose when taking it off. I think this product would be much better if it had a shell specifically designed for this hat, with a more comfortable shape and a more secure attachment system.
