Columbia Bora Bora Booney II Hat
This broad-brimmed piece of headwear with Columbia's Omni-Wick and Omni-Shade technology is popular among outdoor enthusiasts due to its practical features. The Columbia Bora Bora Booney II Hat has built-in UPF 50, an ultra-sweat-wicking headband, and a mesh vent panel for days spent outside.
Omni-Shade UPF 50 protection from the sun's harmful rays is provided by 100% textured nylon poplin on the top, sides, and brim. To keep you cool, the Omni-Wick sweatband and mesh venting actively breathe and draw moisture away from your skin. The Columbia Bora Bora Booney II Hat also has a 3" brim and an adjustable drawcord and toggle at the back.
The Columbia Bora Bora Booney II Hat is an all-purpose sun hat that is lightweight, comfortable, and well-ventilated. It is not particularly protective or fashionable, but it does provide adequate ventilation and is reasonably comfortable. The main gripe is that the one-size-fits-all sizing is on the large side, and the brim is very floppy and stretches. Overall, this hat is best for those with larger heads who want something lightweight and inexpensive.

- Adjustable drawstring
Cons:
