Tula Hats

I discovered and subsequently purchased these well-designed Tula hats at the Overland shop in Santa Fe, NM. Tula hats are handwoven palm hats from Mexico and had been tested for excellent UPF protection by Cal Poly Tech. These hats have been given the UPF 50+ rating, which is excellent for sun protection. These hats are not just excellent protection from the harsh sun, but they are also made of sustainable fiber harvested twice a year from the warm coastal areas in Mexico. For more info., also visit the Tula Hats website.

Hi V,
I had never heard of these Tula hats but they look like a worthwhile addition for sunny climes!
