Quick take
Wide-brimmed fishing hat with floatable brim and adjustable side snaps, made from moisture-wicking ripstop for any water condition.
This grey boonie hat from Paramount Outdoors is a lightweight polyester ripstop piece with a full 2.65-inch brim that floats if it falls overboard. The American Fit cut covers roughly medium through 2XL head sizes, and a draw cord with a cord lock lets you fine-tune it. Side snaps let you pin the brim up, which suits fly fishing, boating or a day on the beach.
Best for
- Boat fishing in open water
- Bank fishing where sun protection matters
- Anglers who appreciate a hat that floats if knocked off
Skip if
