Cool One UPF Bucket HatTexas Longhorns
FREE RETURNS
360-degree UV protection, extreme breathability and a cooling sweatband. We used the same ultra-breathable body fabric as the Cool One UPF Pullover to make this premium bucket hat, which is protective, breezy, and has enough brim structure to avoid the bacon-like waves that plague many bucket hats.
Sizing (head circumference):
S/M: 54cm-58cm || hat size 6 ¾ to 7 ¼
L/XL: 58cm-62cm || hat size 7 ¼ to 7 ¾
Product Overview
Ask any dermatologist and they'll tell you the tips of your ears and back of your neck are two of the most vulnerable spots for sun burns and skin cancer. The Cool One UPF Bucket Hat covers both of those areas while keeping things breezy, thanks to the ultra-breathable Toray DotAir fabric. This is the same fabric we use on the back of our best selling Cool One UPF Pullover. Add in a cooling sweatband, a semi-stuctured brim, and a rear cinch cord for fine adjustments and you've got what we think is the best sun hat in the game.
Is It Really Better?
The premium Toray DotAir fabric gives this hat breathability you won't find in other officially licensed buckets. The semi-structured brim keeps this hat looking clean, too, compared to unstructured brims that leave you with wavy Carl Spackler or Gilligan-like looks.

The Cool One UPF Bucket Hat comes in two sizes. It also includes an elastic cinch cord for fine adjustments.

Outstanding performance. I’ve utilized this hat during the course of spring training baseball down here in Tampa. It has done exactly what it was supposed to do and has kept my head very cool the days where the sun is incredibly strong. Much like the pullover and the baseball hat that I have your gear works to the maximum capacity in which it is meant. Thank you very much and I am looking forward to seeing more products coming out.

The pursuit of a magical bucket hat
Of the original six products in the BCKR line, the Cool One Bucket Hat took us the longest to dial in. There’s a lot of nuance in making a good bucket hat. The brim needs to be wide enough to offer real sun protection, for one, and a lot of fashion-y buckets conveniently bypass this crucial utility.
If the brim doesn’t have enough structure, it looks sloppy. If it has too much structure, you look slightly Quaker. If the shape is even a little wrong, you may look like you’re either going to a gathering of witches or heading to Coachella. (Or both?) Do you structure the crown? Or let it fall where it may? Do you give the top fabric and seam tape enough structure to have a flat top? Or let it dome slightly to the shape of your head? Getting these things right took a lot of prototypes and more than a few misses.
One thing we didn’t have to spend long figuring out was the fabric. We’d already locked in on Toray DotAir for the body fabric of this hat’s jacket cousin, the Cool One UPF Pullover, and it was an easy decision to carry it over to the hat. We love this stuff. Through a lot of fancy processes that include employing a dissolving thread, this fabric is an ideal combination of breathability and durability.
When we finally dialed in the fit and look that we liked and put the DotAir to work, we knew we had a winner. And with the prototypes we made along the way we’ll be well-outfitted for any folk festivals or covens that we might stumble across.
