Quiksilver Boys Pierside

I ordered the same XL hat two times and because the first hat was excellent. It had a 4" brim and fit perfectly and was well made. I ordered it again because it's hard to find a great sun hat. The second one has a smaller brim and didn't fit me and the material was flimsier. See the picture. I would order another if it was the same as the first one.

I have never been much of a hat fan mainly because I have an unusually big head. You wouldn’t know it looking at me, but back in my baseball coaching days I had a hell of a hard time finding a team hat that didn’t fit so tight as to give me headaches. I usually had to settle for a 7 3/4 as that was usually the biggest available which was still tight. One year we got an oddball 8 in which was perfect.I live on a lake and spend a lot of time on it or on my tractor and have used a number of less than satisfactory head garments trying to keep the sun at bay. I was on the lake a couple of years ago and found an almost intact straw hat floating nearby and to my astonishment it fit me just about perfect.I’ve been using it since for all my field work and it’s wide brim really did the job shading my face, but after a couple of years it was starting to show it’s age, so I thought I go on amazon a look for a couple of similar hats that came big. Out of the many there were only a couple that looked like they might work.Before ordering these a thought came to me to take a closer look at the hat I’ve been using for manufacturer marking or names. It had a reddish tag on the front and a headband tag inside that said “quicksilver” L/XL. A quick search on amazon revealed they carried just such a hat with a picture that looked nearly the same to what I had and at a bargain price much less then what I had sitting in my cart. $22. I quickly ordered one thinking it was probably a longshot that it’d fit like the old one since it had been a few years since i found my old one, so I was prepared to return it.My mail lady came with a big box two days later telling me she thought they forgot to put whatever I ordered in the box as it felt empty. Straw hats don’t weigh much of course. What came out of that box was my old hat reincarnated, and most importantly of all, it fit perfectly.So good in fact I ordered two more and would have ordered even more except the amazon app limited me to just two more for some reason. I’ve since ordered another plus two more having a silver outside hat label instead of red. All clones of the others for $22 each although during my ordering escapades the price occasionally listed at almost $30. Amazon’s pricing algorithm does that sometimes, but the price is currently back to the original $22. I’d buy it at $30 if I didn’t already have an ample supply.So if you’re like me and have an unusually large head (I wish that translated to large brain!) this is the hat for you.

No estoy seguro si todos los productos con las mismas características son así, o es solo el que compre.Pero me llego este sombreo de paja, muy bonito el color, la talla perfecta para mi (cosa rara por que soy cabezon). Pero lamentablemente el material está vencido si se puede decir, Apenas lo toco y se parte, de hecho que me vino Roto.Compre 2 sombreros u o para mi esposa color más claro y el mio Marrón.El de mi esposa no le pasa lo mismo pero tiene muy mal acabado. No ne gusta dejar malas opiniones pero no puedo seguir botando el dinero.Este sombrero Marrón si lo ves te recomiendo No compararlo.Creo que voy a devolver este producto.(No me deja subir fotos)

This hat is great for the beach and priced very fair. It's not going to last through a lifetime of abuse, but it serves its purpose well and looks nice at the same time. It's also performed well as a grass mowing hat to protect my skin from the summer sun.For around $20 you can't really beat this hat for its intended purpose. Not junk at all but also not so expensive you'll stress over it getting blown away by the wind or forgotten in the hotel when you check out.

this is a men's hat...tho I entered women's in the filter, it sent me to this one.

Excelente!!!!!! Lo uso a diario y realmente fue una buena compra!!!!

The Quiksilver Men's Pierside Lifeguard Beach Sun Straw Hat was purchased during July of 2021 for the price of $20.00 for a gift to a friend who spends a lot of time outdoors for his work. As of 11-18-24, the price has increased to $22.00.This hat was purchased for protection from the sun for a person who is required to be outdoors for long periods of time during sunny summer days. Although it was very effective in providing cover from the sun, it didn't last the summer. I guess for the price point one could expect that it wouldn't last; but it disintegrated rather quickly.I wouldn't purchase a straw hat of this kind again. It seems as though straw does not hold up over the long term. If I'd been thinking clearly, I would have opted for a hat made of palm.I purchased a similarly styled hat made of palm 19 years ago for little more than the price I paid for this hat and it hasn't lost one weave stitch. It requires a good wiping every once in a while; but it is as sturdy and well made as anyone could desire.Unless one wants to make this purchase repeatedly, I would not make this purchase....and I will not make this purchase again! He did, however, deeply appreciate the gesture.

Very nice hat. Well made and it's my go to during the summer.
