waterproof hat

[ILuvCowparsely]

Any recommendations of a waterproof hat for someone with long hair who wants to put the plait inside the hat to keep dry?? caps are ok but cannot get all my hair under it.

I have a seal skinz hat. It’s kind of cap with sides. It’s amazing but very ugly!
It’s a dark wet morning when no one can see me hat.
Have a look at the sealskinz site.

I got a waterproof wooly bobble hat from Amazon. It's great. The wool outer still gets wet as the 'waterproofness' comes from an internal membrane / liner, but I can stuff my hair up inside it and it just feels like a nice warm, wooly hat.

Barmah unisex brown bronco hat in bovine leather, I and dd both have one about 15 years old still super condition despite excessive use during winter, totally waterproof and much use in summer to keep the sun out of your eyes and of the back of your neck, not cheap but quality never is. They squash up and fit into a little bag that is supplied with it and fit into a coat pocket. Have a look on Amazon.

Barbour do several waxed hats, I’ve got this one which I imagine would do the job as its got the height - https://www.barbour.com/uk/barbour-wax-ladies-sports-hat-lha0001ny92

I use a leather stockman's type hat, had it for 20 years! Your hair is still on the outside but protected by the wide brim.

My partner recently gave me an absolutely hideous but fantastic camo gortex hat. It has a peak like a cap but fleecy ear flaps and is roomy enough/adjustable that you could tuck a plait up inside it I think. I will have a look at it later but it’s not totally dissimilar to this: https://williampowell.com/products/...S6WS0z8t9_bQk84K2LG8BVYl660Xfr8MaApHOEALw_wcB

I bought a leather wide brimmed hat it looks a bit like a cowboy hat, I just spray it with waterproof spray and it's brilliant, it was about £15 on ebay it was a bit big for me so I stuck that foam stuff around the edge so it's fits snug now as I have a tiny head, I would imagine there is plenty of room for hair in it.

Seal skinz is a brand name and no it isn't real seal.

I have one and I love it but can't wear it if windy as it blows off. How do you keep yours attached to your head.

It is probably a size too small?but it never budges.

No just a brand name. I think as In actual seals are very waterproof
It’s some kind of waxy cotton I’d say.

No way on earth I’d wear a seal skin and I’m not vegetarian

I bought this at the start of Winter, it's excellent - I have big, afro hair and can tuck it all up inside and it keeps the drops off of my face too - has a cord so it can't blow off and stuffs easily into a pocket when not needed - only £15

I have the musto one, like HollyWoozle's, but in black. I got it following a recommendation on here. I tie my hair up on top of my head usually and there's plenty of room. It's completely waterproof, windproof, keeps the ears warm, rain out of the eyes and has a cord so it doesn't blow off. It's not very flattering but I haven't found a hat that looks good on me yet (maybe it's my face that's the problem ..? )

I've got a barbour waxed hat, it's brilliant! Could easily get a lot of hair up inside it ? https://www.magrigg.co.uk/barbour-w...9bvn-2Yz9TH_EIz9cnBAzUjuv2wu5DywaAv80EALw_wcB

I also have the Sealskinz hat. If anything, it's too warm, sometimes, but it's definitely waterproof and doesn't come off in the wind.

You can buy hat minimising foam that you put inside the rim so it is tight on your head, that's what I did as it was too big for me anyway, it doesn't budge now even on the windiest days.

Mine fits tight now but if the wind gets to it it's away. I'm fed up about it as I love the hat for all sorts of reasons.
