We review golf bucket hats to pick the best.

We review the best golf bucket hats from Under Armour, Nike, adidas, Galvin Green and more.

Bucket hats in golf have seen a real resurgence during recent years.

English amateur Barclay Brown turned plenty of heads during an impressive performance at the 2022 Open Championship, both for his strong showing on the course and his eye-catching bucket hats. PGA Tour winner Joel Dahmen is another who favours a bucket hat over the more commonly seen baseball cap.

Bucket hats aren’t merely a style choice. With wider brims than baseball caps, they offer greater protection from the elements; whether that’s shade from the sun or protection from rain. As the brim runs the whole way round, you also get protection on the side and back of your head that you don’t get from a golf cap.

Let’s look at some of the best bucket hats in golf.
