Crafted of their exclusive fine toyolene braid, Bailey's Hooper Toyo Straw Blend Trilby Fedora Hat is not only incredibly breathable but also completely packable and crushable. Hooper features a color-blocked braided weave blocked into a tear drop crown and all-around snap stingy brim. A striped inlaid "hat band" adorns the crown and includes both the crown and brim colors. Sleek and unfettered by traditional hat bands, side feathers and miscellaneous accoutrements, the Hooper shines as a stylish contemporary fedora hat style for spring and summer.

This is more a comment regarding the Village Hat Shop. I received the Hooper Toyo as a gift last Christmas. I like the hat but my friend obviously has no idea how big my head is. The hat is 2 sizes too small. When I went to set up an exchange for the hat I couldn't find the receipt. I thought it got thrown away with the wrapping paper. Well, I found it recently buried in a box. I realized it was way past the return policy but I thought I'd ask. I was told no, it had to be within 30 days. I get it. You don't want to return items that have been out of inventory for a long time. But, I didn't want to return the hat, I wanted to exchange the hat. I was thinking about buying an Open Road 6X, a $300+ hat. This would be an upsell for sure. I owned a shoe store for 7 years. We had a strict return policy as well but, if someone returned a pair of shoes, unworn and with a receipt we usually made an exception. If they wanted to buy something more expensive, we definitely made an exception. I'll hold onto the hat until I find someone to give it to. Someone will end up enjoying it. It's just a lost opportunity for the Village Hat Shop to make $200 more.
A gorgeous fedora porkpie hat! Excellent quality!
This is a great hat, bought specifically for a special trip to Nevis. I got many compliments from both the group I travelled with and those who saw the photos from home. Although the hat is advertised as "crushable", it will crease and lose a bit of its shape if packed tightly. Other than that, I couldn't recommend it any more: very comfortable, stylish and perfect for a warm climate.
