Favorites for Everyday Sun Protection
Good news, Wallaroo readers! Winter is winding down, and warmer days are ahead. And with those warmer days comes the return of something we have all been missing…sunlight! But before you get too excited and run out your front door (along with every single person in your neighborhood), the “UV Crew” at Wallaroo would like to remind you of one important thing: That fiery ball in the sky may be glorious, but you’ve still got to protect yourself daily from its harmful UV rays.
After 27 years in the sun protection industry, we do know a thing or two about sun protection. Our team has put together some of our most popular everyday UPF 50+ styles to keep you protected and stylish as we head into spring.
First, hats for everyday routines. Whether you’re off to tackle your list of errands or headed to a coffee shop to meet a friend, choose from Wallaroo favorites like the ladies’ Kristy Fedora, available in medium and petite, and the men’s Everett Fedora.
Looking for a hat you can dress up or down? The Rio is the perfect short brimmed fedora for days that blur the line between casual and polished, and its UPF 50+ rating and flexible, packable Flexi-Weave fabric keep it practical for school pick-ups, coffee runs, and weekend getaways alike.
The sophisticated Lady Brett from our Jane Seymour collection is a UPF 50+ cloche hat that combines vintage charm and modern ease with its sleek lines and versatile neutrals. Perfect for market strolls, gallery visits, or dressed-up errands.
How about the perfect hat for a date or lunch with friends? Look no further than the great-for-any occasion Caroline or the Carkella Emery with its UPF 50+ protection, frayed edge (for a little fun) and lightweight fabric. The Cortez is a great choice for guys looking to show they know a thing or two about style.
The Carkella collection features a variety of hats for travel, touring, golf, or wandering around town, while styles like the Justin, a packable trilby for men or women, is perfect for evening adventures.
If you take daily walks, do yard work, or have soccer viewing on your schedule, The Outback offers UPF 50+ protection with a structured, outdoorsy vibe for men and women, while the Victoria Fedora Diva offers a touch of casual charm and UPF 50+ protection in neutral colors - great for running around town, farmers’ markets, or festivals.
For weekend family time, the packable Casual Traveler wide-brim hat packs easily into any bag or tote, offering UPF 50+ protection for picnics, zoo trips, or play dates with the kids, and The Explorer is perfect if your day includes time on the water. With its floating microfiber brim and chinstrap, it's perfect for fishing or kayaking.
Wrapping things up with hats for fun weekend outings. Try the Denver Cowboy for a music festival or the Catalina Cowboy styles for a hot summer night. (Our raffia styles are not UPF 50+, but we love them for a casual night out.) Their boho appeal gives an edge to any outfit!
No matter what warmer-weather pursuits fill your days, Wallaroo has the perfect UPF 50+ hat to match. Whatever your routine holds, there’s a Wallaroo keeping you looking stylish and safe in the sunshine.
Remember…
It's a sunny life. Wear your hat.
