Frequently asked questions
What is the best bucket hat for everyday wear in the UK?
A plain 100% cotton bucket hat in a neutral colour such as black, stone or navy. It goes with everything, washes easily and at £4.99 you can keep a spare in your bag. Bolder prints are better saved for festivals and holidays.
Are bucket hats still in style in 2026?
Yes. Bucket hats remain the leading casual hat in UK streetwear and festival fashion, and reversible double-layered designs have kept the style fresh. Read the real history of the bucket hat for why Britain keeps coming back to it.
Do bucket hats protect you from the sun?
Partially. The all-round brim shades your face and some of your neck, which is fine for an hour or two. For long days outdoors, a wider-brimmed boonie hat covers more: our boonie vs bucket hat comparison explains when to choose each.
How do I wash a cotton bucket hat?
Hand wash cool, reshape while damp and air dry away from radiators. Hot washes can shrink cotton. Full steps are in our hat cleaning guide.
What size bucket hat should I buy?
Most are one size, fitting roughly 58 to 59cm heads. Measure around your head just above the ears; our hat size guide shows exactly how.
