LuwintHead Umbrella Hat, Compact Folding Hands Free Hat Umbrella for Adults Rain Sun Protection Gardening Fishing Hiking Beach Costume, 36 Inch

I really just kind of bought this as a joke to surprise my boyfriend with a laugh. BUT I did end up unironically using it one day working in my yard on a 95 degree day. It really protected me from the sun. Was a little embarrassing when the power guy came to work on the power line and could see me from his ladder. I thought I’d be safe in my backyard lol.Anyway if you use this for real, it can’t be windy. It will blow off your head. The hat part isn’t super comfortable but I’ll wear a thin cap underneath and then it’s fine. You have to really adjust your depth perception, otherwise you’re running into things. And just remember that you’re wearing it because it kept touching my back and I kept freaking out thinking it was a bug. The drawstring tightener thing broke or fell off but I was able to find a replacement easily.Overall this product is ridiculous in the best way. It’s hilarious. It actually does have some practical value despite its flaws. And it also gave me one of my favorite pictures I’ve taken. Just look at how happy I am wearing my umbrella hat.

Fun & Good quality.Works great. Just not in the wind.

This is so darn useful for us as my husband spends a lot of time out in our back yard watching the dogs. We have a fence, but we are worried that the littliest one will get into trouble out there. So, I've seen him standing in the rain and the sun... We had absolutely no trouble with this. The first time opening was a bit of a struggle, but not much. We followed the directions. At first my husband threaded the little knob thru the top string... which he should not have done. It goes on the one underneath your neck. And, that's pretty clear to you once you think about it. I was surprised that it does have that strap under the chin just like the picture. It didn't hurt his head at all and no headband will be necessary. He loves this and has already shaded himself from the sun. Since he uses a cane in the yard to balance himself and needs the free hands to throw the ball and scoop up the little one... this is just perfect and totally as described. It showed up in two days like it's supposed to and I couldn't be happier. In fact, if I have to stand outside for any length of time this summer, I am confiscating this or ordering me another. It's really a handy gadget for around the yard.. better than a sun hat as it would cover your shoulders. I'd imagine it would be handy anywhere where you need all your hands, or would just like to have them. It is too coool!

I originally bought this product as I thought it was something funny to wear but realized this thing is great. I guess it is marketed for gardening but I can see it being used for anything where you need sun or rain protection and need both of your hands free. I've used this multiple times for different reasons. My daughter plays fastpitch softball and I recently bought a nice DSLR camera to take pictures. I've used this umbrella hat to block the sun as well as the rain and it does a great job with both. I initially brought it to the fields as a way to block the sun but during one of our tournaments it started to lightly rain. Not enough to delay the game but enough where I didn't want my camera to get wet. This thing sticks out far enough to block the rain from getting on my Camera as well as my long lens.Also took this camping and it was great when I went fishing in the rain. Kept the rain off of my upper body.As for the quality of the umbrella hat it is great. Very easy to expand and fold up and is very small. The part that goes on your head auto adjusts and fits both my head and my 6 year old son's head very comfortably. The strap to put around your chin is necessary if there is any wind. But with the strap on I had no issues with it blowing off. Of course I wouldn't wear it in very strong winds.

The only thing I didn't like was the string to tighten it up under my chin. The clip pinch to tighten it with came undone and fell to the ground. It was difficult to reattach it to the string but I somehow managed to do it.

I bought this for my dad as 20% gag gift but 80% because I knew he would love it and actually use it.Getting it closed back up is a little difficult and the material on the tie/closure area is a little flimsy. But given the inexpensive price- this is worth the money.It actually kept my dad dry while he fed his chickens during a rainstorm lol!

I purchased this item because I work outside for my line of work. However, because it does not stay well on the head; your Teetering constantly doing a balancing act to keep it on. the straps keep slipping through the fastener and fall off frequently with the drawstring attachment that’s supposed to keep it on your head. Slight wind it will blow off your head and if you try to grab it, you’ll cut your hands on the metal. Parts of structure. I sliced my fingers twice trying to retrieve it from blowing off of my head with the strap. It does cover your entire body, but the downfall is that it easily falls off your head. i’m so frustrated with it that I’m thinking about returning it. Nothing against the seller itself just the product.

Actually works! Used to have hands free for photography
