I bought my first version of this hat in June of 2009 while on vacation riding in the Tater Tot Rally on the trail of the Coeur d'Alene from a gift shop. I still wear it most days. The second I bought from The Village Hat Shop some years later and it is still serviceable. I made the third purchase not out of need, but for convenience, but what a disappointment. It does not fit. The headband is too large, and does not fit snugly as the other two, and the brim has wrinkles pressed into it. Very shoddy workmanship. Not worth sending back for a refund. Will definitely miss not being able to buy this hat in future.

Very nice hat for sun-protection with significant air-flow to head, lite-weight. However, the hat is marker xxl and is significantly larger the my current xxl of the same hat by the same manufacturer. Hmmmm…

Great shape, this is the third hat ive bought . Husband loved it , then son in law , just got this for my brother( we are heading out to the desert to the opal mines).

I purchased this hat to replace an almost identical one that I lost. Village Hat shop filled order promptly and it arrived within a few days. Good service! When I opened the box and tried it on, the brim was misshapen and bent at an odd angle, as if it had been stored with weight on it. The box seemed to be adequate for protection during shipping. It has been difficult to reshape the brim to a proper look.
