Shade that lets the day in

Keep the sun out.
Let the breeze through.

A proper 2½-inch brim for the glare. An open mesh crown for the heat. A leather cord for the gust that shows up halfway across the lake.

The all-day difference

More sky.
Less heat.

Most shade comes with a tradeoff: cover your eyes and trap the heat. The Mesh Hiker takes a better route.

Its twill brim gives bright days a useful edge, while the open crown keeps air moving around your head. From the first garden row to the last cast, it stays comfortable when the day refuses to cool down.

Built around the breeze

You can see
the air move.

The ventilated crown does the work a solid hat cannot. Light passes through. Heat has somewhere to go. The full brim still keeps the brightest part of the day out of your eyes.

The chin cord is more than a finishing detail. Tighten it when the wind picks up; loosen it when the air goes still.

Three details. One useful hat.

Everything earns
its place.

FernFern Mesh Hiker product profile

Cut and sewn in the USA

Simple by design.
Ready by nature.

Cotton/polyester twill gives the brim structure and keeps the profile clean. The self-fabric band settles the mesh into the silhouette. A slim leather cord finishes the job without adding bulk.
