Quick take
A fully waterproof souwester hat with PVC-coated nylon, extra-wide brim, and ear flaps, built for heavy rain and spray on the water.
This is a Grundéns sou'wester in orange, a waterproof fishing hat built for wet days on the boat. It has an extra wide brim, neck protection and ear flaps, with an adjustable chin strap and a flannel lining. A welded ditch on the front brim sends water away from your face. At 5.6 ounces, it suits anglers who fish through rain and spray.
Best for
- Saltwater fishing in rough conditions with spray
- Any fishing in rain and cold weather
- Situations where water protection and ear warmth matter
Skip if
- You want a hat that breathes well in warm weather
- You prefer a smaller, less bulky rain hat
Strengths
- Fully waterproof PVC coating stops all water penetration
- Extra-wide brim and ear flaps provide comprehensive coverage
- Welded water ditch directs water away from the face
Trade-offs
- Heavier and stiffer than breathable fishing hats
- Waterproof material limits air circulation in warm sun
- Flannel lining adds bulk and is slow to dry if saturated
