This quickly became my favorite hat. I then lost it, and actually bought a second I loved it so much. Yes, the waxed-ness works like you'd think; it repelled in any rainstorm I came across in the CO rockies. IDK how it would fare if you live in a more tropical climate though.Downside: The waxed water repellent works both ways, so if you exert yourself and sweat a lot, your sweat will be trapped inside! So, don't wear this hat in very hot temperatures, or while exercising and you'll be fine.
