As a dedicated pickleball enthusiast, I’m always on the lookout for gear that keeps me comfortable while also making a statement. Recently, I came across the Funny Stay Trashy trucker hat by VentuCoven, which caught my eye with its quirky slogan and stylish design. I needed a hat that would not only shield my eyes from the sun during long matches but also add a bit of flair to my on-court style.
From the moment I put it on, I appreciated that it was comfortable and soft, just as advertised. The adjustable double-breasted design made it easy to fit to my head size (which falls somewhere between the 21-23 inch range noted in the product description). During my games in the spring sun, I found the breathability of the mesh back to be a real advantage, helping to keep me cool.
In reading customer reviews before purchasing, I noted two common pros that resonated with me: the stylish look and the comfortable fit. I completely agree! The sponge composite layer lined in the front definitely adds a stylish touch, making it appropriate for both on and off the court. Plus, it has that cool, laid-back vibe that draws compliments from fellow players and spectators alike.
On the flip side, I did notice a couple of drawbacks that other users pointed out, and they largely mirrored my experience. The recommendation to hand wash or limit machine washing makes sense; the hat’s materials feel like they would degrade with heavy washing. I chose to follow that advice, hand washing only after particularly sweaty matches. Additionally, while I loved the adjustable fit, it took a few attempts to get the right size without feeling too loose or tight – a minor inconvenience, but worth noting.
As spring transitioned into summer, the hat continued to perform well. It’s lightweight and didn’t feel heavy during my matches, which is a huge plus when you’re focused on the game rather than your gear. The brim, measuring around 2.7 to 2.9 inches, provided just the right amount of shade without obstructing my view, allowing me to stay focused on the ball and my partner.
Overall, I found that the Funny Stay Trashy hat lived up to my expectations. It provided comfort and a bit of fun to my pickleball ensemble. The softness and adjustability helped me forget I was wearing it during intense games, which is the ultimate test for any athletic gear.
If you’re in the market for a stylish and functional hat for pickleball or any outdoor activity, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this one. Just be mindful of the washing instructions and give yourself a moment to find the perfect fit. With its casual style and practical features, this hat is becoming a staple in my pickleball wardrobe.
Verdict: 4 stars. While there are a couple of minor drawbacks, the overall comfort and style of the Funny Stay Trashy trucker hat make it a fantastic choice for anyone looking to up their game – and their hat game too!
