Enjoy the outdoors with confidence—even when the wind picks up—by choosing a hat with a secure chin strap. Chin straps help keep your hat comfortably in place during beach walks, boating, hiking, festivals, and travel, so you’re not constantly grabbing for it or worrying about it blowing away.

When you don’t need the hat on your head, the strap becomes a smart hands-free carry solution: simply push the hat off onto your back. It’s perfect for quick transitions between sun and shade (or when you step indoors), without having to hold your hat. When you do not need the chin strap, place it on the back of the brim and tighten it to stay. Chin straps are also useful to secure packable hats in place.

Chin straps are often made from materials that coordinate with the hat for a cohesive look, and they’re secured with durable, stylish hardware like leather loops, toggle locks, or wooden bead adjusters—small details that elevate both function and design. We also offer replacement toggle locks and replacement chin cords, so you can keep your favorite hat adventure-ready season after season.
