FAQs
Is the Tilley Airflo Hat waterproof?
It is water-repellent thanks to its DWR finish, which helps it shed light rain and moisture, but it is not completely waterproof.
Can I put the hat in the washing machine?
It is recommended to hand wash your hat to preserve the fabric, structure, and specialized coatings.
How do I measure my head for this hat?
Measure around your head just above the eyebrows and ears, then compare that measurement to the Tilley sizing chart.
What is the hidden pocket for?
The hidden pocket is designed for small, flat, and lightweight items such as emergency cash, a key, or identification.
Is the hat breathable in very hot weather?
Yes, the integrated mesh panels in the crown are specifically engineered to maximize airflow and prevent heat buildup.
Does this hat float?
Yes, most Tilley Airflo models are designed to be buoyant, making them excellent choices for water-based activities.
Troubleshooting
Hat brim losing its shape
Gently dampen the brim, manually reshape it, and allow it to air dry on a flat surface.
Water no longer beading on the surface
The DWR finish may be wearing off; you can re-apply a fabric-safe DWR spray to restore water repellency.
Hat feels too tight or too loose
Tilley hats are designed to be worn slightly loose for ventilation; if it is uncomfortably tight, check sizing guidelines or try a different size.
