TILLEY HATS
THE BEST, MOST PRACTICAL "OUTDOOR" HATS
IN THE WORLD

In 1980, frustrated that he couldn't find a worthwhile sailing hat, Alex Tilley decided to oversee the making of some "proper" hats for himself and other Toronto sailors. A proper sailing hat had to float, stay on, be unshrinkable, last indefinitely and look attractive.

Little did he know that eventually his "proper" hats would become known as the best made and most practical hats of their type in the world. Synonymous with quality and craftsmanship, Tilley Hats offer the maximum UPF sun protection rating and a lifetime guarantee. Still handcrafted in Canada, Tilley Hats have become a favorite of many worldwide.
