I loved it from the get-go! Perfect fit for my quite large orb, but really good looking, and the material works well in sun or rain (or snow-rain, like today). This is a great choice for travel, too, because it is crushable and can be re-shaped in seconds. Very nice hat! :)
I have been in Iceland and not sure it kept me dry. I emailed the company but have not heard back.
Bought mine 3 or 4 years ago. Light tan top with brown brim. Really enjoy wearing this hat, it's my go to hat. My head size is 6.3/4, a small. Wound up getting a medium and it fits perfectly. Have had many compliments wearing it over the years. Added some long feathers on the side, sewed a little loop with some thread, gives it some extra style. Over the years it's gotten worn and some of the brim color is faded, has that worn look. It's been washed several times. If you wash it, do so in cool water as cotton does shrink. Also note that because it's made of cotton, it's weight is heavier then other hats. But once you start wearing it, it will become the hat you'll always go for. It just gets better with age.
Worked great in the rain hiking. Very stylish and fit into my backpack for traveling too. Not crushable but good size for slipping in a bag.
Very cool lid, it has a cool look and I believe it will last a long time.
