Some hats are described as water-friendly, with foam brims that maintain shape when wet, breathable quick-drying fabrics, and designs suitable for use both in and out of the water.

Care directions consistently list machine washing followed by line drying or laying flat to dry. Descriptions also note that many hats are machine-washable, quick-drying, and wrinkle-resistant.

Listings describe wicking liners, mesh liners, and breathable lightweight fabrics that wick moisture away, plus elasticized backs to improve comfort and fit.
