Too Good Not To Share*

Entering the darkness of a centuries-old European church after hiking under the glare of the sun reflecting off of light-colored stone buildings, I immediately remove my wide-brimmed hat to take in more completely the wonder of the stained glass and to appreciate the awe-inspiring height of the ceiling – so close to God, up there. But what to do with my hat, putting it on and taking it off over and over on this full-day walking tour of Paris? Yes, I have access to the small pack my husband carries on these occasions, but it’s a pain to constantly work zippers to put a hat away and take it back out again a few minutes later.

The KLIPSTA magnetic hat clip is the perfect solution for me. I have already installed KLIPSTA on my Sash bag, so when I walk inside and want to remove my hat, I simply pop the magnets open, insert the brim of my hat between them, and let them snap securely shut. Voila! I’m hands-free, and the magnets won’t leave a nasty “bite” mark on the brim of my hat. 

This stretchy silicone clip is quick and easy to use and has the capability to secure a light sweater in the gap between where it is attached to my bag and its magnetic closure. So, outside on this warm day, my wrap is secured while my hat is on my head; inside, I can add my hat to the clip and access my sweater if necessary. 

My husband also carries a KLIPSTA hat clip on his backpack when we’re on walking tours. He loves that it’s so handy, particularly at restaurants or anywhere he’ll be sitting awhile, and there is a risk of leaving his hat behind. This way, not only does his hat stays attached to his belongings, but also it won’t fall onto the floor. 

We’ve been stopped multiple times by travel companions who ask about the nifty hat-holding device we use, and we never tire of recommending it. 

There are multiple other products on the market with similar designs, but I can’t speak to their effectiveness. I do know that the KLIPSTA magnets are particularly strong and highly functional.
