Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I received one of these as a gift. I spend most of my freetime outdoors, so the gift was pretty thoughtful and appreciated.
This hat is amazing. Actually feels sturdy, odd to say about a hat, but that seems to describe it well. Extremely comfortable and easy to wear. In the hand, it is heavy and solid, but when worn it is barely noticable. I typically wear 7 1/2 or 7 5/8 in fitted hats. The 7 5/8 fit me perfectly.
I will admit, the style isnt really me. Im more of a baseball hat or wool watch cap kind of guy, but now that I have this I use it. Nothing beats this hat when the sun's beating down on your head or the rain is coming down. It is ventilated just right so your head doesnt get too hot, but is still plenty sturdy enough to keep the sun or rain off your head, neck, and face.
Now that Ive been using it a bit, its starting to get that cool 'worn in' look. I think thats one of the cooler things about this hat, Id compare it to a leather jacket, no two are the same as they slowly conform to their owner and manner of use.
As for the quality, Id doubt if there is a better made hat on the market. I dont baby this hat. I use it in the outdoors exclusively. I drop it in the dirt and mud. It gets wet with water, rain, and sweat. It gets thrown in the trunk when Im not using it. Absolutely nothing has deteriated on this hat; stitching still 100%, no shrinkage or stretching, no holes or fraying, still water/sun proof the same as when it was new. The only changes after all my abuse is the worn in look I mentioned previously.
I can absolutely recomend this hat to anyone who spends time hiking, fishing, camping, or boating (it floats too). The ONLY issue I would caution is that the style of this kind of hat isnt for everyone. Im too embarrased by the look of the style to wear it around town, or Id probably wear this hat every day, the wife teases me and says I look like an Indiana Jones wanna-be when I wear it.
It is expensive, but it is worth it. Assuming you like the look and you spend the time outdoors to justify it.
