Is the brim stiff enough to stay down in 15-20 mph winds?

I don't think the hat performs well in a stiff wind. The size of the brim is large (it's a sun shade hat more than anything), and that makes it catch the wind more than a normal hat. I find myself flipping the brim down when it blows up in the wind.

Yes the brim is semi rigid. Not as rigid as a ball cap but you can form the brim. Hope this helps

I had lived in places with high wind in the past, so I would say any covers can get ripped depending to how strong the winds are. With that said I think this one has better chance of staying put, due to its material of construction and elastics at the bottom, also it has a vent which could move the air through it. It is better than any other ones I had in the past and I paid almost twice as much for those.

The hat has a bit of a soft rumpled look anyway so I'd say packing it isn't going to be a problem if you can avoid folding the brim. :)

Bibration noise is loud on winds over 15 mph. Not appropriate for roof mountin as noise travel. I just took my down and plan to sell it.

Absolutely - as long as you're not running in gale force winds! Then you might have to tie it down!

I have 2 of these blinds, when the wind gets up over 20 mph it will shake around. it will blow away if you don;t keep some weight in it.They work very well.

The entire border is elastic in the hem and fits fairly snugly around the bottom. It probably won't stay on in significant wind. I have had it come off only once, and it was a pretty good storm that did it.

No it isn't a large brim and I haven't had this problem in wind. It does flip up often, but then comes back down. The strap does well at keeping the hat on. The hat is very light nylon and I've never had it feel hot. I live in very hot weather and wear it in the sun often.

It tends to get windy here as long as you have it anchored down with all the doors and windows closed you should be fine. We had wind gusts over 40 mph with no issues.

Absolutely. Flat is best. I wouldn't fold the brim, but mine gets packed flat in a duffel bag on each fishing trip.

I bought a maroon colored one and I would think that it would be fine outdoors. Don't know how well it would handle a wind!

Hi Petunia--I play golf in strong winds and I like how the straps hold the hat on my head. I have not had any problems with all my Tilley hats. The brim will not flop in the wind. Craig

It will hold up just fine if you secure it properly, if the wind whips up underneath and/or is moves it will not hold up - but neither will any other cover at this price point.

It is a heavy stand and should work OK for unspecified values of "normal" breezes. I would not presume to speculate about high-wind conditions.

It copes with a reasonable amount of wind IF you set it up properly. The front needs to be as curved as possible to provide rigidity.

It's not really heavy, but the nylon liner may act like a sail in heavy winds. Haven't had any issues with wind personally.
