DAKINE Indo Surf Hat - grey
Fabulous concept (sun hat with neck-protection flap and chin strap). Execution, not so much. Had planned to use hat when sailing. Small/medium is not sized for adults: too tight for a 5'2" female, and cap is not adjustable. Chin strap is not adjustable. On receipt, one connecting button missing from detachable neck-protection flap. Brim of hat too narrow to provide much sun protection. A relatively pricey purchase (for a sun hat) that just didn't deliver.

DAKINE Indo Surf Hat - grey
Great shade, saved my face and ears in Central America. Saved my neck too until those cheesy buttons that hold the neck shade to the hat broke off. After I sew that thing onto the hat directly it will be 5 stars, but Da Kine should have thought about that. Its still a great hat. It becomes much looser in the water, just right for me. When its dry it fits kind of tight. So if its for surfing get it a little tight and it will fit better when wet. Where have I heard that before?

DAKINE Indo Surf Hat - black
This thing works exactly as I hoped it would. Stays put, even when I get hit by a wave, dries quickly and is reasonably comfortable. When I first got it, I thought it was a bit tight, but once in the water, it immediately loosens up and fits perfectly. The dry-sizing and chin strap mean its not truly usable when out of the water, but I have other hats for that.

DAKINE Indo Surf Hat - grey
Spent the week surfing in Dominical Costa Rica with this hat. I wore it everyday and never had to worry about sunburn head. Totally worth the price for those with thin hair.
Neck gaiter is attached by buttons which ripped off in the surf. I remove it and will re-attach with dental floss.

I love this hat as it stays in place when surfing and under water.
