Sherlock Holmes (4/5) Nov 17, 2008 Joseph Supinsky Houghton MI US
  I originally bought this hat to wear with a knee length coat and bent stem pipe, as a Haloween costume. Now that Haloween has passed I find it makes a great hat to wear daily. I agree with the other reviews that it is very small, I usually wear a medium so I ordered a large, and it's still a bit tight. The wool does keep you warm in cool weather, not so much in actual cold (below freezing) so if you are looking for a winter hat it would be best to keep looking. The earflaps are functional, and keep the wind off the ears quite well.
Great Look (3/5) Nov 13, 2008 RICHARD DAMM OAKLAND CA US
  Great look, but sizing runs a little small/not true to ordered sizing. If you want to order this hat, order one size larger than you would normally.

  I am 100% satisfied. The hat was perfect. Shipping was prompt.

  Extremely happy with the quality and fit of this hat. It is much nicer than I expected.
Delivery was excellent.
Highly recommended (5/5) Oct 13, 2008 Julius Pavlov Hoboken NJ US
  I've worn deerstalker hats for decades, and this one is splendid, especially considering the price:
somebody once tried to sell me a flimsy, summer-shirt-thin d.s. hat for over $60 - the cheek!

The buyer will do well indeed to consider the size.
L roughly corresponds to M to M+, and XL is somewhere a little over L. However, if the hat feels a bit too large, you can adjust the depth by playing with the knot of strings of the earflaps.

I can't wait for the weather to get cooler, so I can start wearing the hat.
Great Deal my dear Watson... (5/5) Apr 24, 2008 Dan Serlin Detroit MI US
  This is a terrific hat at a very reasonable price. I needed it quickly and VillageHatShop.com really came through with a great product. Highly recommended.
Great Value! (4/5) Mar 7, 2008 Anonymous
  I have paid up to $85 for imported versions of the deer stalker. This was domestic, a great price & a really great hat. It appears to need some breaking in, but for the $$ it's an excellent alternative to paying much more $$ for a hard to find import.

  Ideally, Watson...though often portrayed as wearing the deerstalker, Master Sherlock Holmes wore it only every so often...nevertheless, this hat is the finest example of Sherlockiana I've ever owned.

Not only are the materials and assembly above par, but it's very friendly to the pocketbook; I have bought a deerstalker AND an Indiana Jones hat from VillageHatShop.com, and have yet to be disappointed by either the merchandise or the merchant.

I will most definitely shop here again...

  My husband is a fractography consultant - He looks at broken components and scientifically determines information relating to breakage. So, a deerstalker hat is perfect for him. I was surprised how good it looks, however, and is a practical hat in itself for everyday wear for non-detectives. The quality is good, but it runs very small. I got a size large for my husband's normally medium head, and it is still a tight fit.

  The hat is a great value and looks good but runs small. I debated on purchasing a small or a medium because my head size was just under a medium size as shown on the hat size chart. Unfortunately, what I really needed was a large size.
