Ultra-Packable, Lightweight, bluesign Approved Sun and Insect ProtectionOutdoor Research says:Ultra-Packable, Lightweight, bluesign Approved Sun and Insect Protection.This Bug Bucket features an integrated, no-see-um head net that protects face and neck from sun and insects in buggy environments.Built with a bluesign approved recycled nylon blend, the Bug Bucket’s head net can be rolled up over the hat’s brim or tucked under the crown when the bugs mellow out. UPF 40 sun protection blocks UV rays, and classic bucket design shades eyes and ears. Designed to be ultra-packable and lightweight, the entire bucket hat can be stuffed into a hidden pocket and thrown into your pack, ensuring you are always protected in buggy terrain.An obvious choice when biting flies and pesky mosquitos are part of the journey, the Bug Bucket provides reliable insect protection deep behind insect enemy lines.Our VerdictThe Outdoor Research Bug Bucket is ideal for summer hikes and evening camps when the mozzies come out in force. Weighing in at just 66 grams, its easy to forget in your pack. The no-see-um mesh stows neatly away when not needed and can be deployed in seconds when the insects descend. It provides full coverage for the face and neck without clinging, and because it sits further from your skin than a separate net, its far more comfortable to wear for extended periods.The recycled nylon fabric is light, quick to dry, and surprisingly breathableeven with the mesh down. The brim offers decent sun protection without drooping, and the UPF 40 rating gives some added peace of mind on exposed ground. The mesh is a touch dark in low light, but thats a small compromise for such effective bug defence.- Reviewed by Ultralight Outdoor GearFeaturesWater-ResistantBreathableWickingLightweightQuick DryingTransAction HeadbandNo-See-Um MeshUPF 40Dark Fabric Under BrimPacks In Stash PocketConvertibleScreen Print OR LogoSpecificationsMedium Weighs: 64gLarge Weighs: 66gXLarge Weighs: 68gMaterial & Constructionbluesign approved 40% Nylon 60% Recycled NylonHelp & advice:Recycled Content in Outdoor GearThe Bluesign System
