The Purple Turtle Says… | “Essential if you are travelling, camping or working in areas where there is a likelihood of sustained attack by midges” | “It’s easy to see through and keeps mosquitoes and other insects out” | “It’s cooler and easier to see through than many midge nets, making it a great option for tropical travel when it’s protection from mosquitoes you really need” | “The wide brim keeps the net away from the face whilst also providing some relief from the sun” | “The hat is a twist and fold pop up hat, so folds down small and great for travel” | “The Craghoppers NosiLife Ultimate Pop Up Hat and Head Net has been treated using the NosiLife system which remains effective throughout the life of the product” |
