Perfect

2 days ago

Hat is super light and packs nicely in your pocket if need be. The brim is pretty flimsy, which makes it not so great for casual biking or strong winds. Not enough of an issue to give 4 stars.

Bad stitching in back and useless floppy brim/bill/peak.

1 year ago

Pros: Hat size and stretch are great. Drawstring toggle at rear. Vented/perforated panels on sides are great. Cons: Poor stitching on the back has loose threads all over right out of the bad and the brim is completely floppy and sags down, it is not reinforced internally. It is not curved like in the photo. The brim is made from a stretchy material that feels like a rubber belt. It cannot be curved into shape that will hold like a baseball cap. While running, it flops all over, it's a completely superfluous flap of the heaviest material on the cap.

No, I do not recommend this product

Love at first wear.

1 year ago

I have searched the globe for the perfect hat, and this is now my go-to number one! The flexible and soft brim is fantastic, and the high-quality material is soft to the touch and cooling to wear. It fits like a glove on my head, offering both comfort and style. Not only is it functional, but it also looks great. Highly recommend!

The best parts of running with a hat and not, all at once

1 year ago

This hat is insanely light weight. I spent all of this past summer running with it and it keeps the sun off my face and sweat out of my eyes, while perfectly managing heat. I've tossed it in the laundry after almost every run, and it still looks brand new.

packable and light weight

1 year ago

I purchased this for using while running and it has addressed my needs perfectly. Lightweight, packable and just enough of a bill to keep the sun out of my eyes during those early morning runs. I have a larger head and these xl OR hats always fit great.
