Review: Fits well, looks great! - I looked for a long time, even tried a couple but one size fits most doesn't work for me. This one has traditional sizes, however most people said they ran large. I was right on the cusp between medium and small so I went with the small. The hat arrived on time and was packed well so it was ready to ware right outta the box. The hat fit well, any smaller would have been too small but that is good as hats tend to get bigger but never get smaller. The hat looks to be of good quality and the color was what I expected. I expect to wear this hat for a long time. Any problems and I will up date my review.
Review: I've never been a hat person . . . - but this hat has changed me into one. Due to a steady abandonment of my hair from my head, I discovered that cold air is now tingling my scalp. "Sooner or later," I thought, "I'm gonna have to get a hat." Not being a big fan of baseball caps, I considered the flat cap but didn't like the looks. The cowboy hat was just too limited on where I could wear it without looking like a dork. So, I started looking at hats when I happened to see them in stores but didn't go out of my way searching. While browsing in a local department store while my wife was Christmas shopping I ran across this hat. It felt great, fit perfectly, looked good on me and was a good color! I also LOVED the fact that it was crushable and would pop right back out to normal and was nearly waterproof! What was NOT to like was the price! In the store this hat was $90! WOW! For me that was too much for a first hat!! "I can beat that on desertcart," I told myself. I jotted down the brand name, the model and size (L) and placed the order when I got home. A few days later, my prize arrived and at a SIGNIFICANT savings!! Unfortunately my bargain was too large! It dropped to my ears and would not stay on my head. I was Soooo disappointed! Now the debate was . . . which one was wrong? The one in the department store or the one from desertcart? I took a gamble and sent back the desertcart model (the only one at the department store one was sold) and reordered a medium. I was disappointed to discover that for an unexplained reason, the medium was nearly $10 MORE than a large ????? Bottom line, the medium arrived and it fit great! I love the hat! My head stays warm, it sheds water and I've gotten lots of compliments on its looks. It is appropriate in most venues and has a classic look without being pretentious. The journey was a bit frustrating but it was well worth it!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the brim of the hat flat all the way around? The pictures are a bit deceptive.**
A: The brim isn't flat, Steven.  The sides curl up a little when the hat is on.  My husband purchased two of them and they look great!

**Q: Is this hat crushable or hard top and can you change the headband with a different strap**
A: Not sure about the head band. I've never tried to change it.  The hat is truly crushable. I have stuffed it the sleeve of my jacket many times and always comes out perfect.   I love this hat.

**Q: Hi, Could you tell me the height of the crown please?  Thanks**
A: Good hat, balanced shape, 4.5" - 5" crown, fits well.

**Q: Does this hat have a 4 inch pinch front crease**
A: Yes I like it because it is one of the only stills that look good on me
