My Wife was looking forward to this hat for our trip to the Southwest.
I was dissappointed to find 2 grease smudges on the brim of this hat when I received it.
We did however find this same brand at REI coop so we have it in time for our Grand Canyon Trip.
As For the Hat itself I cannot rate at this time.
I would not hesitate in ordering from Village Hats again. I think this was just a one off experience.
