The staff donning Tilley Hats at the Constitution Marsh 探花精选 Center and Sanctuary.
Since I consider myself an unrepentant hot head, with the sweaty head to prove it, the Tilley Hat鈥檚 light weight and patented 鈥淎irflo鈥 system is the perfect alternative to the oven-baking baseball caps I鈥檝e always worn. It practically feels like you鈥檙e wearing nothing on your head. By the same token, it keeps my ears relatively warm on the days I need that, too, like the recent outing by 探花精选 magazine鈥檚 staff on a cool Autumn afternoon when we canoed along the Hudson River, guided by staff members from the . From now on, I鈥檒l pity the poor souls who have to settle for pedestrian, uncomfortable baseball caps. When wearing my Tilley (an 探花精选-licensed product) in central Brooklyn where I live I may even mock them, especially if they have Yankees caps on.
Here's what a few other 探花精选 staffers had to say:
My Tilley was a perfect safeguard from the sun. I was not too hot or too cold, but the perfect medium with a hat that fit just right.
--Susan Cosier, Senior Editor
Having read endorsements of Tilley Hats, I was half expecting to have mine snatched from my head and eaten by an elephant. But all it did was keep the sun out of my eyes, prevent a sunburn on my scalp, and keep my head warm in the cool November weather. The absence of elephants is probably a good thing, as I may not have had the fortitude to retrieve and clean my hat following a trip through an elephantine digestive tract.
--Heidi DeVos, Director of Production and Operations
I was thrilled with my Tilley hat. It blocked the sun, stayed snugly on my head when the wind came up on the water, and felt comfortable all day long. All in all a fantastic hat for the outdoors.
--Alisa Opar, Senior Editor
I was very impressed with my Tilley hat on our recent trip to Constitution Marsh. It kept my head cool and shaded my eyes from the sun. It鈥檚 a perfect companion for an afternoon in the wilderness.
--Todd Standley, Designer
My Tilley hat helped keep the sun out of my eyes; had it rained, I鈥檓 sure it would have shielded them from droplets splattering, too!
--Julie Leibach, Senior Editor
