Women’s Wide-Brim UV Sun Hats

Yes, a wide-brim UV sun hat effectively protects your face, ears and neck, provided its brim is wide enough and its fabric is certified. At Ker Sun, our wide-brim hats combine brims of up to 5.7 inches with a fabric certified UPF 50+ in line with European standard EN 13758-1, whose protection is inherent to the weave. Classified as personal protective equipment (PPE), our wide-brim hats undergo strict testing.

The wider the brim, the better the shade protects your face, ears and neck. At Ker Sun, our wide-brim hats have brims of up to 5.7 inches: choose the widest brim for long hours in the sun, such as at the seaside, or a shorter brim for a more understated everyday look. On the La Rochelle, Faro and Arcachon styles, the shapeable brims can be adjusted to increase the shade or clear your view. Good to know: a hat does not protect you from UV rays reflected by the ground or water. Remember to apply sunscreen to your face and neck.

Yes, as long as it fits your head size well. At Ker Sun, each of our wide-brim hats has an adjuster for a personalised fit: a tie-back fastening with a bow on the Faro style, and an inner drawcord or size adjuster on the La Rochelle, Arcachon and Antibes styles. The Faro, La Rochelle and Arcachon styles also come with a removable chinstrap, so they stay put even when the wind picks up at the seaside.

Yes, a well-designed wide-brim UV sun hat stays comfortable even in the heat. At Ker Sun, comfort in hot weather is at the heart of our designs: light and soft, our wide-brim hats cast welcome shade over your face and neck. The La Rochelle and Arcachon styles are made from a breathable fabric, the Faro style has an absorbent inner band, and the Antibes style a 100% cotton lining that feels soft against the skin.
