Tilley LT5 Hat Features

General

APPEARANCE AND COMFORT: To protect you from the sun and rain, Tilleys fit lower than other hats. This also tends to give one a rather dashing appearance! For your comfort, they`re held on by gravity, not painful pressure on your forehead. On a hot muggy day, you`ll especially appreciate this! Even though they fit gently, Tilleys won`t fly off because when there`s a breeze, you use one or both parts of the tuckaway Wind Cord (see TIES ON below).
GUARANTEED FOR LIFE:T illeys are replaced free if they ever wear out, shrink or fall apart. They`re so carefully handcrafted in Canada, and made of such strong materials, that many outlive their owners. Final words in the Owner`s Manual? `Pass it on!`
INSURED AGAINST LOSS: We understand the anguish of losing this reliable companion, or of having your dog terminally gnaw it. Should that happen, we`ll replace your late, lamented Tilley at half the catalogue price. With your Hat, you`ll be provided with `The Straight-Shooter`s Statement of Loss of a Tilley Hat` insurance policy. The insurance is for two years, all perils, 50% deductible, and is not issued by Lloyds.
TIES ON IN THE WIND: The Tilley comes with a tuckaway, adjustable, fore `n` aft Wind Cord. When it`s calm, the Wind Cord stays hidden in the crown. When there`s a breeze, place the part with the sliding knots behind your head. When it`s windy or you`re sailing, use the chin part too. See COMFORT above, and the Owner`s Manual, which accompanies each Hat, for amplification.
FLOATS: A layer of closed-cell foam in the crown, and sometimes in the brim, provides the Tilley`s positive buoyancy. This is a boon to boaters and fishermen/women/people. Good grief!
REPELS RAIN: The Lighterweight Nylamtium® Tilleys are excellent at repelling rain.
WON`T SHRINK: They, in 1980: `Alex, you can`t make a cotton hat that won`t shrink!` Me: `But what if we boiled the material first? Mercilessly preshrunk it?` They: `Well, I guess that would work.` It did and does.
HYDROFIL® ANTI-SWEAT BAND: Soft and comfortable, it picks up sweat from your forehead and wicks it away to your temple area where it evaporates.
CERTIFIED SUN PROTECTION: The fabric and style of all Tilley Hats have been certified to block 98 percent of harmful UVA/UVB radiation and deliver an ultraviolet factor (UPF) of 50+, the maximum rating given. You still need SPF 15 sunscreen and sunglasses with UV filters! Children especially need the UV filters in their sunglasses as non-filtering glasses will increase the size of their pupils, allowing even more of the damaging UV rays to enter.
SUNGLASSES` SECURITY: You can attach your sunglasses to the side of your Tilley: a Velcro tab inside the Hat holds the folded temples of your glasses in place after you`ve tucked the temples through the solid brass ventilation grommets.
SECRET POCKET: Inside the crown is a good-sized pocket sealed with Velcro. In it, carry your Brag Tags, I.D., toilet paper(!), license, hotel key, £10 note, plus a 20p for an emergency phone call.
WASHING INSTRUCTIONS: Wash it frequently or non-removable sweat stains will mar it and possibly rot it. Machine or hand wash in warm or cool water. Do not use bleach as it remains inside the Hat, slowly rotting it. Smooth and reshape the Hat by hand and set it out to air dry.
OUR GUARANTEE: If you ever succeed in wearing out your Tilley Hat (and some have), send us the remains and we will replace it free. If you want to keep your faithful, old, worn-out friend, tell us and we`ll return it to you. We understand.
Each hat is hand-sewn using very strong thread; all seams are lock-stitched so they won't unravel. The brass is from Britain and is the best there is. All Hats are made with such care and dedication that one is as good as another.
Measurements: Front of the brim: 2 5/8" back: 2 3/4" sides: 2 1/8".
Fabric: Handcrafted of a strong, laminated, waterproof nylon, Tilley Nylamtium®.
