Columbia M Coolhead Ball Cap Review

Customer Ratings:

This hat lives up to Columbia's description. Very lightweight and cool for summer wear. The other thing I like is the small, discreet logo. Columbia and other apparel manufacturers should hew this example more frequently. People don't want to be walking billboards. With this hat, you aren't.

When you look and the picture it looks like a nice hat with great shape but the actual hat is very soft and doesn't hold it's shape.

Best Deals for Columbia M Coolhead Ball Cap

So happy with my first Columbia Sportswear Coolhead Ball Cap, I purchased two more for my sons to take on our family vacation to San Francisco this past summer. The hats provided us with UPF 50 sun protection as we hiked along Lands End trail, from the Sutro Baths, past the Legion of Honor and down to Mile Rock Beach and the labyrinth.

I chose a matching green color for all three of us (see pictures), so my wife could pick us out of the crowd.

About a month before our vacation, I purchased a Columbia Sportswear M Coolhead Ball Cap and a Seirus Innovations Quick Shade Mesh Baseball Style Hat with UV Protection for Head, Face, and Neck. I tested them both out on shorter hikes near our home and preferred Columbia Sportwear's hat, which markets its Omni-Freeze ICE advanced cooling and Omni-Wick moisture management. The hat certainly has a silkier feel than the other brand and didn't seem to absorb sweat like other materials do.

Even though the hat has UPF 50 sun protection we applied sunscreen, so I can't separate the efficacy of the two products. We came away without sunburn though and the hat certainly played a role. We wore the hats for the remainder of our San Francisco trip, on cable cars, in museums, and wandering the courtyards and wharfs.

The one-size-fits-all style was accurate. My sons (ages 9 and 8) were as comfortable as their 40ish father.

Rating: Five stars.

Honest reviews on Columbia M Coolhead Ball Cap

This cap was a gift for my sister and she really likes it. The brand logo is not overly large. The fabric makes the cap cool and comfortable. She uses it while sunning on the beach and for top-down convertible rides. The look is "uni-sexed" with a softer contour -not the typical upright type "ball cap" that guys often wear.

this is a great baseball cap that ventilates fairly well, protects well during rain/snow'dries quickly and looks good. I liked my first one so much, I bought a second. One tip: it's very light compared to other ball caps so I use a hat clip to keep it tethered when there's more than a light breeze or when in the convertible.
