I love the fit, style, material quality.

cap has a nice fit, ( I do have a rather small head ) and looks great

I liked the material and quality of the product. Had to return because it runs closer to small than medium but it was a good product. Quickly was approved for my refund so I was happy.

My third identical hat in 10 years. I lose them; they don't wear out. Keeps sun off my bald head without being hot. The compliments are nice too.

For me, the style on this hat is perfect. It's a modern take on the classic ivy cap. Visually streamlined, very light, very breathable, with decent material and acceptable (although not great) stitching. There are only two cons to what could have been a great cap at a fantastic price:- The colors are not very accurate. They aren't bad, but they aren't accurate. The beige cap is very light, almost white, although the photo at least matches the product, while the "slate grey" is definitely not a true gray and does not reflect the advertised photo. Slate should be a medium gray with just a hint of blue, which this is definitely not. This has a noticeable greenish-blue cast to it, which becomes even more apparent if you are wearing a proper gray or black shirt with it. Paired with stronger colors, however, you may not notice the difference. I've owned two of these in "slate grey" that were both like this, so it's not a fluke. For what it's worth, I've actually come to like the color, but be forewarned if you're expecting exactly what is shown in the photos. I have no idea what the other colors actually look like, and I have no intention of finding out because of the next issue:- I've owned three of these caps, same style, same size, but ALL of them fit differently. Not enough to be uncomfortable, but enough to be annoying. One fits like a proper large, one is almost a medium, but all three are supposed to be "Medium/Large". It's almost absurd. Quality control on the sizing is a crapshoot. For the price they're asking, I'm not terribly upset, but it's one more thing to be wary of when buying.Although I absolutely adore one of the three caps I have in this style (the one that fits like it's supposed to), I won't be buying more from this brand, and I can't rate this product with more than three stars. I wish I could. I can forgive the inaccurate colors, but the inconsistent sizing is unacceptable. Get a handle on the sizing issue and I would give it four stars.

hat is just right

The fit was excellent. I have a smaller head, about 7.25, I got the S/M size and it fit very well. The sweatband looks to be cotton and absorbent - very nice. And the inner lining not only keeps the sun from coming through but it keeps the hair oils away from the outer layer. The color was OK. I just wish it were more warm beige or tan color. Overall a very nice cap.

As others have noted, the color descriptions for these caps appear to be almost meaningless. I just received one in 'charcoal', and it's closer to a fairly pale taupe than anything else. It certainly bears no resemblance to the dark gray color you envision when you hear the word charcoal. On the plus side, the cap fits well and should be cool and comfortable as I hoped.
