NEW-ViFishing Umbrella Hat Folding Adjustable Sun Rain Cap, 37.4”Oversize Hands Free Umbrellas, 7-Ribs Anti-UV Waterproof Headwear for Fishing Gardening Golf Sunshade Outdoor

I have been looking for an umbrella to use while kayaking. And I think I have finally found it. I've had skin cancer and need to be in the shade, but love to be active. I've used hand held umbrellas and have tried to secure them on the kayak, but its impossible... I think this is going to be perfect. I have already found other uses like gardening, mowing the lawn and plan on using it at a pool bday party and kids soccer game. I may look funny to people, but I'm happily out of the sun!

I know it's meant for fishing but I purchased it to do my projects outside and some yard and garden clean up and trimming. Size is Perfect! Do use the strap for underneath your chin so it stays in place. When first opening, do take your time and be patient when you first open it per it folds into a small-scale size. After that it will be easy to open and close. Small enough to store away into a drawer when done. Very lightweight. Much better than a sun hat per coverage from the sun is greater. I highly recommend.

I really wanted to love this product and I did! However, I did have to return it because of two major reasons for me. First, it was difficult for me to open since my hands ache a lot. But once opened it was great and covered my entire head. I could use my hands to do other things instead of holding the umbrella. It was nice to be able to carry my dog downstairs in the rain without having to get wet. With that being said, the 2nd reason that lead me to return it was that the umbrella was too big and cumbersome in a way that didn't allow me to bump into things and get caught. It works extremely well in open spaces. But for the reasons I needed it for, the space wouldn't allow me to walk freely. Rather than getting frustrated with it I had to return it. However, that doesn't mean that I didn't think it was a great invention and product. They used very good and sturdy materials.

Good idea. Recieved broken. Ribs were broke. Generally needs away to keep the wind blowing off your head. Uncomfortable where umbrella support meets head band. Had a many loved it

I've looked at a lot of umbrella hats over the past few years, but never bought one because the umbrella was always so small that I figured a sun hat and some spray silicone would work just as well and look a lot less stupid.This one is so big, and so inexpensive that I had to try it - AND I LOVE IT. It's wide enough to keep me completely dry while walking my dogs in the rain, and even without the chin strap cinched up, it stays in place while I bend over to pickup their messes.It's weirdly comfortable, doesn't blow off my head in a 5 mph wind, and doesn't look different from a regular umbrella from a distance, or the side, or even the front unless it's tilted enough for someone to see the head gear. Maybe I'm just getting older, but I'm not embarrassed to wear it. I will wear it all seasons to keep the rain and sun off me.One day someone will probably invent a more attractive head gear for these things, and I'll probably upgrade, and I wouldn't mind if it were just a few inches wider to keep me dryer in sideways rain, and maybe slightly deeper to hide the ugly head gear, but just as it is, it's an awesome umbrella, and a good investment of $10.

good quality for the price

I received the item, and it is poorly crafted. The chin strap is maligned, so if you put it on with the elastic band at the back, it will be lop-sided. Other issue is, I purchased this item because I wanted to be hands-free while riding my scooter to work in the rain, but it says on the instructions "not to use in bad weather" lol. So what really is the point if it's not usable? This seems more like it was meant to be a novelty, not for practical use. Also, it is pretty much IMPOSSIBLE to get it to fold down as flat and neat as it originally comes in the packaging and in the sheath that it comes in. So good luck with that also.Better off buying a rain bonnet or rain visor than this thing. I'd hoped I'd found a solution to showing up to work absolutely drenched on rainy days. I'll take my chances with the rain poncho I've got coming on the way. That, coupled with the rain bonnet should hopefully do the trick and get me to work relatively dry for the most part.Very disappointed with this novelty hat. The concept of it is good, but it's not practical when put to the actual test. Thankfully it was only 10 bucks, so hardly a feather off my hat. Returning things with Amazon is very easy where I live (have at LEAST 3 return/drop off stations within walking distance), so I'm just gonna send it on in later today when I have time. It's a shame you can't use it in actual "bad weather" lol. I don't see the point of this if it can't be used for that.

Nice size, covers shoulders .
