【Heat Problem】Does the Workman "X Shelter Heat α Hat Shade" reduce the feeling of heat on the head?

As the temperature rises, it's the season to enjoy walks with my beloved dog even more. However, sunny days mean my head feels sizzling hot. So, I decided to try out a new hat and check the functionality of the Workman "X Shelter Heat α Hat Shade."

It's just a daily walk with my beloved dogs, but my head is hot

Today is another day for our regular walk. The unpredictable spring weather has seen an increase in days that become quite hot all of a sudden. The highest temperature on this day reached a surprising 23 degrees. My beloved dogs, who are always looking forward to our daily walks, seem to be enjoying the warmth even more than usual, full of energy!

Watching them sniff the flowers and chase the falling petals naturally brings a smile to my face, but it is indeed hot.

When we arrive at the neighborhood park, which has no shade, we are hit by a scorching heat. My head is particularly feeling the heat, so I decided to check the temperature.

The temperature at the top of my head is a staggering 38 degrees! This is before Golden Week, and I couldn't help but doubt my eyes upon seeing this temperature. It seems I need to take some measures.

So, I decided to buy a new hat. And it’s somewhat multifunctional.

What I found at Workman is the "X Shelter Heat α Hat with Shade." It has 15 types of features to reduce heat risk, including UV protection and moisture-wicking and quick-drying capabilities, making it perfect for the upcoming hot season. The color is a simple black, making it easy to wear in daily life. I bought it because it seems practical for walks.

Wearing the "X Shelter Heat Alpha Hat," I start my walk

I put it on and started walking right away.

Even in places with strong sunlight, it feels like being in the shade, and I don’t feel hot on my head. Even when the outer part warms up from the sun around my shoulders, the top of my head remains cool and refreshing.

Before using it, I thought it might be "a little cooler than my usual cap," but the difference in sensation is surprisingly significant. I felt much more effective compared to caps that are not designed for heat protection.

Since it has a chin strap, I feel secure even when the wind blows. Especially my dog loves to run, and even when we dash around together, I don’t have to worry about the hat slipping or being blown away, allowing me to focus on the walk.

What surprised me was that even when moving my body and starting to sweat on my forehead, the inside of the hat doesn’t get stuffy. I usually find it hard to tolerate the discomfort of sweat on the way back and feel an urge to take it off, but this hat kept me feeling refreshed all the way home; it’s quite excellent.

The cool feeling I experienced was real, and the temperature did not rise.

I took a walk and returned home. When I measured the temperature from above the "X Shelter Heat α Hat Shade," it was 24.7 degrees. Is it designed not to get hot in the first place? The hat, which felt cool to the touch, still had a cool temperature. Looking at the numbers, I realize again how amazing it is.

This seems to be a reliable specification for the upcoming summer. It should perform well during camping and outdoor festivals, and it's also reassuring for walks with my dog.

By the way, according to the staff at Workman, this product often sells out due to its popularity. Since I plan to go camping next week, I thought I should buy one for each family member.
