Solbari
Reviews & Experiences

Reviews show a clear split: many customers praise Solbari products for build quality, hat design and, for some, fast international shipping. However, a considerable number of reviewers report issues with returns, refunds, delivery time and responsiveness from customer support. Several reviews describe product problems that were either unresolved or later replaced, illustrating inconsistent quality control and service outcomes. If you consider purchasing, check shipping times for your country, review the returns process and confirm sizing before ordering to reduce potential issues.

Winona Durgan PhD 5/5

I recently had the pleasure of purchasing some sun protective clothing and a sun hat from Solbari, and I must say that I am thoroughly impressed with their products. The items are incredibly lightweight yet still manage to offer UPF50+ protection, which is exactly what I was looking for during the summer months.

The quality of the clothing is exceptional as well; they are beautifully made with high-quality materials and attention to detail. The brand also offers a great variety of different styles to choose from, so you can be both stylish and protected at the same time.

Aside from the impressive quality and style of these products, another standout feature for me was how easy it was to navigate their website. Their customer service team was very helpful when answering any questions about sizing or product details before placing my order.

Overall, I would highly recommend Solbari to anyone looking for stylish and high-performing sun protective clothing or accessories. You won't be disappointed!
