Love that Protean made a snap back version!
Absolutely love this new snapback version. It’s a great fit that sits just right on the head. The sweatband is so comfortable, and for the fabric to not fade stokes me.

Excellent Sun Protection Hat with Neck Coverage - Ideal for Golfing, Fishing, and Long Days Outside
I learned about the Proteus Hat from a friend who is a beach lifeguard and swears by these hats. After trying one myself, I can see why.
I bought it mainly for golfing and fishing, and it has quickly become one of my favorite hats for long days in the sun. The coverage is excellent without feeling overly bulky, and it is comfortable enough to wear for hours at a time.
I’ve been a long-time fan of Melin hats, but they can be pretty pricey. The Proteus Hat feels like it offers just as good, if not better, quality at a better price point. The material, fit, and overall build quality all feel premium, especially for the cost.
As someone who works in athlete skincare and sun protection with Dermasport, I’m pretty picky about gear for long days outdoors, and this hat checks a lot of boxes. It gives me the kind of practical sun coverage I want while still looking good enough to wear for golf, fishing, boating, or everyday outdoor use.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for a comfortable, high-quality sun protection hat.
