Let's get the part of the review that makes this hat only almost perfect instead of perfect: it doesn't come in putty color.
I'm an old guy so this hat suits me. It keeps the sun off, warms my head, sheds most of the rain, and doesn't surprise anyone by trying to be stylish. What more could you want?
But there is more. It's very well made and wears well. I've had five or six of these with green or blue bands. They go with all of my clothes because I no longer need to wear a jacket and tie and haven't for about thirty years. They fit well too. If too tight after washing, I just put it on my knee and pull on the brim to stretch it. Too loose? Wash it in hot water.
At 80 years old I want a hat that's easy to take care of and this hat fills the bill. You don't have to be as old as me because bucket hats are timeless. People have used them for years as fishing hats no matter what age they are.
