What I was looking for (5/5) | Feb 10, 2008 | Mike T. | Memphis TN US |
| Great hat, like others have said the mole is much darker than the picture. This was fine to me as I was looking for a color darker than the pictured mole and the actual mole was perfect. I would like to thank the other reviewers for the heads up on the color. | ||||

The Briar (5/5) | Jan 17, 2008 | Jay Malette | Hudson NH US |
| I've had my eye on the Briar for a long time now. I finally just received my Loden Mix Briar fedora yesterday. It is a beautifully-made, rugged, sturdy hat and very comfortable. Not everyone has a green hat, and this being my favorite color, I wear it with pride. Based on other reviewers and my own experience though, I think all the hats displayed here are shown slightly ligher than the actual shades they come in. I personally love my hat as it came, but some previous customers sounded a tad disappointed when they bought the "Mole" hat, expecting it would be lighter. The Loden is the same case. It's more of a forest/olive color, so please take that into consideration when you buy any one of these Briar hats. I can't wait to get me another one. The Fall Brown is my next choice. I'm looking forward to submitting my picture of me in this hat to the Customer Gallery soon too. Might I add, the people here at VHS were extremely helpful in my purchase of this hat. I refuse to shop anywhere else as long as I can get what I want here. Thanks VillageHatShop! | ||||

The 2nd Briar (5/5) | Mar 20, 2008 | Jay Malette | Hudson NH US |
| I loved this hat so much, I bought another. And here I am writing another review. I bought Fall Brown this time around and I couldn't be happier with the hat. It is a beautiful shade of brown (once again, ever so slightly darker than pictured, but I have no complaints about that). The hat is soft, yet sturdy. I cannot see this hat losing it's shape even if you drenched it. I'd buy the whole line at this point. You cannot go wrong with this hat. | ||||

Take it anywhere (5/5) | Jan 28, 2008 | Ken Forsch | Anaheim Ca US |
| Hat fits great. Ordered the Mole Color. The color is a little darker than I expected. The hat allows me to fold it up in my pocket when indoors. | ||||

Something Different (4/5) | Mar 6, 2008 | David A. Bretz | Evansville IN US |
| I have been wearing nothing but Tilley hats for several years now; although I don't think any hat will ever replace the my Tilley's the Briar is a very nice hat. I am glad I didn't read the reviews before I purchased the hat. I was hoping for a much lighter color than what the mole turned out to be but it has grown on me and I have worn it every day since I received it. | ||||

Solid and Comfortable (5/5) | Dec 4, 2007 | Philip Brautigam | Mount Vernon WA US |
| This hat is perfect for my winter trip to Egypt! A nice blend of casual and dramatic without being TOO much of a statement in a ball cap world. | ||||

Not many fedora's in Texas (5/5) | Jan 15, 2009 | John Blackwell | La Marque TE US |
| I love the hat. I live south of Houston and we don't have all that many cold days but I have had a few opportunities to wear it. It fits well, looks good, and most importantly, keeps my bald head warm. I have had folks stop me to ask about it. It turns out the crown is a little taller than I had hoped, but that wasn't the fault of the hat! I'll order another style soon. | ||||

My Black Briar Safari Fedora (5/5) | Feb 12, 2009 | Irving Moses | Humble TX US |
| I recently wore this hat on a trip to Ohio where the temp fell to 10 degrees; it was both warm and stylish, as it matched well with the cashmere blend coat I purchased for the trip. It is most stylish and I got many comments on how it looked! | ||||

Mole Fedora (5/5) | Jun 18, 2009 | Doug | Lo |
| My first hat in a long time. It fits well and looks good. Even though I live in a hot climate, I can still wear it to church and other events with no problems. | ||||

Love the hat (5/5) | Dec 3, 2008 | Bob Schuknecht | Saginaw MI US |
| I have had my Briar Fedora for about a month now. I wear it to work almost every day. It is stylish and comfortable. I am surprised at how many compliments I get on my good looking hat. | ||||
