Rain hats – practical protection for rainy days

Topic overview

Why wear a rain hat?
Which rain hats offer the best protection?
Looking after your rain hat properly
Which rain hat is the right one for me?
How much does a rain hat cost?

The days are getting shorter again, raindrops are lashing against the windows, brown leaves cover the streets and it’s no longer possible to get to work dry without the right headgear. It’s a similar story in the spring: if you’re hiking through the woods with your family and the weather is still unsettled, a rain hat is a practical and fashionable companion.

As nice as it can be to experience the purity of nature in wet weather, to enjoy the fresh air and to simply switch off, you can get really wet in a sudden downpour. This makes it all the more annoying when you have to go home soaked afterwards - this is where the correctly chosen hat can help!

Why wear a rain hat?

Rain hats are waterproof or water-repellent and are simply unbeatable in rainy weather – which makes them particularly interesting for women, of course. Wearing a rain hat means your carefully blow-dried hair won’t get wet again and your make-up won’t run. However, rain hats are not gender-specific and can keep the heads of both men and women dry during any outdoor activity – be it hiking, fishing or walking.

You can enjoy the following advantages when you wear a high-quality rain hat:

Advantages of a rain hat

All-rounder that can be worn regardless of weather conditions
A medium-sized or wide brim allows rain to simply drip off the sides
Light and airy yet hard-wearing
Practical and modern accessory that can be worn every day

Which rain hats offer the best protection?

These are two main factors that are important when considering the practicality of a rain hat. The material and the width of the brim.

The right material

In general, choosing the right material depends on your preferences. However, you should have a clear idea about what you want to use your rain hat for. Because if you’re looking to spend a lot of time in the rain out in nature, GORE-TEX®, SympaTex®, oilskin and hats with an Asahi Guard® coating are the best choices. However, if you’re only likely to linger out in the light rain of the early summer, fur felt and leather hats are the perfect choice.

We will look at these materials in more detail below and you can also look at our material guide for more information.

GORE-TEX®

GORE-TEX® consists of a membrane that is made up of pores twenty thousand times smaller than water drops. The material is water and windproof yet still breathable.

Asahi Guard®

Hats with an Asahi Guard® coating are particularly durable and long-lasting accessories. The special Asahi Guard® coating can give hats made of various base fabrics robust water- and dirt-repellent properties, and therefore guarantees excellent wearing comfort.

SympaTex®

The SympaTex® membrane has no pores and is based on a physical-chemical principle in which the body’s moisture is absorbed and released to the outside. At the same time, SympaTex® is waterproof and absolutely windproof.

Oilskin

Oilskin hats made of waxed cotton are also very popular for rain hats. The waxed surface of the fabric means that no moisture can penetrate though it, leaving your head pleasantly dry.

Felt

Fur felt is water-repellent and also dries quickly. Thanks to the natural properties of the animal fur, fur felt requires little to no artificial improvement. Wool felt is also water-repellent to a certain degree. Therefore, high-quality felt hats are also a very attractive option to protect your head from getting wet.

Leather

Leather is a first-class, resistant material. Rain hats made of leather are slightly water-repellent in light rain.

The width of the brim

A rain hat with a wide brim protects the hair from the rain and also helps to keep the neck dry. When wearing a hat with a short brim in heavy rain, the rainwater can drip down your back in the gap between your neck and jacket.

Looking after your rain hat properly

Thanks to their special finishes, rain hats have a long lifespan, even if they are repeatedly exposed to extreme weather conditions such as heavy rain, storms, snow or sometimes even heat. Nevertheless, it’s important to look after your rain hat properly to ensure it retains its properties in the long term. Paying attention to the following care tips will ensure you’re definitely on the safe side.

Brushing: if your hat is dirty, you can gently brush the dirt off. The colour of the brush bristles should match or at least be similar to the colour of the hat. Be sure to brush with the grain of the hat’s hair structure!
Drying: never place a wet hat directly on a heater to dry. There’s a very high probability of it shrinking if you do.
Waterproofing: if your hat starts to let water through over time, you can extend its lifespan using a suitable waterproofing spray. It’s best to clean the hat beforehand!
Clearing the sweatband: the inner band can sometimes become greasy. It is often easy to clean with a damp cloth.
Shaping: if your felt hat becomes misshapen, you can moisten it with a little steam and then mould it back into its original shape. Special hat stretchers are recommended for all other types of hats.

Which rain hat is the right one for me?

There are rain hats to suit the needs of the wearer – and of course they come in all different colours. Hunters and fishermen will probably prefer a rain hat in green or brown. If you’re going on a hunt, you should opt for an orange high-visibility hat. Mountaineers who like a classic look would be well advised to choose a wool felt hat in grey or anthracite. If you want your rain hat to also serve as a fashion accessory, it’s best to choose a traveller hat in blue or black.

You can buy a rain hat with a particularly warm lining for the colder months of the year. Models made of treated fleece, wool or felt, some of which also come with ear protectors are particularly popular.

What types of rain hat are there?

There is no longer one classic type of rain hat. There are still traditional styles such as the sou’wester, but even these are now available in fashionable or more advance versions. Nowadays pretty much any hat style can become a rain hat if the right material is used. Bucket hats are very trendy.
