How does the Omni-wick sweatband work in this hat? Do you find it keeps sweat from rolling down your face and getting in your eyes?

Never had a problem with sweat rolling down my face, and I`ve worn it a lot when walking, on hot days. Very cool hat in general, though the brim is a bit flimsy. I find if I roll up the whole hat tight, in the opposite direction, it seems to reverse the droop pretty well.

I've never had any sweat in my face wearing the hat, even when the brim has a sweat ring my face has stayed dry. It is actually very good in a light rain too. As long as it isn't raining too hard to push down the brim.

Yes, it works great for me. I'm at a farmer's market in 100 degree heat for several hours and love it! The dark under color of the brim is also great for keeping the sun out.

There is tape on the inside of the hat that you can use to adjust the hat, slightly. The band around the bottom of the hat slides in a folded pleat to allow for a small adjustment - tighter - then the tape holds it in place.

I am not a swimmer so I can't answer this question well. However, I am a dancer and sweat a lot, it stay put on my face and doesn't run into my eyes like other brands. Hope this helps!

The plastic holder on my size has fallen down and it dosen´t fit 100%. Beside that, the beads of sweat keep entering in my ear. Doesn´t aprove it at all!

I would say a cautious 'yes' - I didn't wear it for an extended period of time but I didn't notice any sweating (like I did with the adhesive bandage patches). There seemed to be enough room so that it didn't cause any sweating - it is concave so it doesn't lie flat against your eye. Hope that helps.

It doesn't have a "headband" per se. My husband slips it over his head, then adjusts it over his nose and down over his neck. It's made to cover your nose, ears, and neck. You still have to wear a hat over the top of your head.

I haven't had any issue with it burning my eyes. It really stays put, even when you sweat. It is very small though. I just use it on my face. Hope this helps

It would be tough to get it over/under a hardhat. The band barely gets big enough to go over my baseball cap. But other than that, I haven't had any problems with it as far as taking different positions with it. Seems to work fantastic so far. I've had it since May.

Best hat I have ever had. As far as the mesh part goes, it is a very fine mesh located just below the flat top. I have never noticed any problem and I have worn it in the Caribbean and in Hawaii with no problems. The mesh band is only 3/4" wide and because of the tightness of the mesh I cannot imagine that much sun gets through - probably more light than actual sun rays. With the brim unsnapped, there is more than ample shading from the sun on all sides of the head. I have never noticed my head getting hot when wearing this hat. Hope this helps!

Somewhat, the band does get moist because of the sweat but it hasn't gone though the phone or anything. I ran un light mist a few times and it worked fine.

Well, you can wear it. The only thing is it will flop around a lot around the nose area. I've danced furiously in it, it flops. It will not break. Depending on your head size, you may need to correct it back into position every so often- I do, but my skull is quite small. Also be prepared to sweat a lot. Note that you can only see out of the nose holes and mouth hole. I played a concert in semi-darkness in it once successfully so I dont think you'll have trouble running.TL;DR version: it flops a lot with movement like running or dancing and vision is limited though possible.

My husband uses it under his bicycle helmet, to shield his bald scalp from sun coming through slits and also as sweat band. It is very thin, with a nice sweat band to keep sweat out of eyes and also has perforations to let air flow through.

Heck yeah. This stuff REALLY works. Example: Phoenix AZ heat was 105 (no joke) I had on a full helmet and this stuff applied to inside of face shield. It did NOT fog. There was actually water running down the shield inside from condensed sweat but no fogging. It WORKS.

No, it's a work out band used strictly to activate sweat and heat in the waist line. I have lost inches with it. I use it coupled with a trash bag or Saran Wrap to create maximum sweat. I can only say it works for me. I'm working to lose the inches and keep them off healthily.

Great, it has a soft band that goes around your head so it doesn't move when you are laying on a bench or have your head against something. It also stays in place while doing cardio; I wear it when I do Insanity and it never moves.

No because it's a powder. I sue it when I spin, play tennis etc. Depending where on your head you are using the powder it might get a tiny amount on a hat but it's not been an issue for me. The powder lasts all day

I found it somewhat challenging to breathe...it got hot and dampish, but still blocked the dust, which means it worked. Not amazing, but beats breathing dust. Hope that helps. I don't wear it for long consecutive periods of time.
