I've been wearing the hat for a couple of weeks and am very happy with it. Size was right on target with what I expected, which was tight enough to stay on in a moderate wind. I also got the chip strap for not-so-moderate wind. Quality is excellent, especially for the price. I haven't gotten it out in the rain yet, but I intend to down the road. I would absolutely buy it again.
Called and discussed the 'sizing' as recommended. Received the hat and added some adhesive foam strips under the sweat band for a good fit. This was planned. Always better to add a few thin pieces of foam than receive a hat that is too small. Great big brim, perfect for FL. I added chin strap, which I do to all my hats. Thanks!
I was looking for a large size (7 3/4 to 8 which are hard to find) as well as a large brim to keep the sun off my face. I had to go through the return process, due to damage in shipping. This took a while, but after all was said and done I have a nice hat that fits right.
