Love this hat! It's super packable, it's stylin' (at least from my gear obsessed perspective,) and it's a wee bit weather resistant thanks to its softshell fabric. I now have two of them haha.

I have owned this hat previously in the same size (Medium) - fit perfectly. This hat (sz medium) was WAYYY bigger and therefore I had to return it. Either the previous medium was too small or this one was too large - very inconsistent sizing...

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
I purchased a medium and it was a little snug but not terribly so. These are great hats for hiking in the late Spring, Summer and early Fall. They protect your head from the sun but are very light and can be folded up and stuffed in a bag. The material is khaki, which is good. The picture for the fatigue color looks more like a normal ball cap but it isn't. I have both the fatigue and the tan and like them both. The only complaint is that it arrived all crumpled up. I'll need to wear it once or twice for the material to relax and not look like I just rolled out of bed with my hat on.

With my large head, this hat's larger fit actually does the trick! It's labeled as XL but I have an XXL head, which is why I said it's bigger than expected. I wear my hat all the time :) This is my 3rd hat in this style from Outdoor Research. I keep losing them when I fold and store them lol

Packable, quick drying, fits under a helmet or toque, keeps sun and sweat out of your eyes... what more could you ask for from a cap?

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
Bought this cap primarily to go under my bike helmet. It works great for that purpose. But I have found that its the most cap I own!! I own all kinds of running hats. This cap simply fits perfectly and because its fitted you don’t have one of those annoying straps in the back.
So smart man that I am, I bought one for my wife. Under the helmet worked great for her AND today she said this is such a comfortable hat, I just like wearing it. It just feels good on. I just wish they had more colors. I’d probably buy several more. I might anyway!!!

I always love the radar pocket hats. I am a a lady with a big head so the XL is perfect. Black goes with anything so this was a better call than the last green pocket hat I got. It's also very lightweight for running and exercise.

I purchased this hat for my wife. She wears it all of the time. While walking the dog, hiking, any occasion. It is light weight and packs down small. A great buy for sure.

Cool hat, the sizing I think runs a little big. Probably get a size smaller than you normally would.

More packable and stylish than a ball cap. Non seasonal.
Allow for a little shrinkage and some fading...after about three years.

I am a retired person. I help out with our local Senior A Hockey Club and they have a logo which I have had sewed onto the peak of the hat. I'm happy with the results.

Packable, low profile, lightweight and functional, this cap keeps the sun out of my eyes and the sweat off my brows. It fits great under a helmet or a beanie when the temps get cool. Quick drying and form fitting I love this cap!

I like how small it packs down and it fits my massive cranium that standard hats don't.
Would recommend!
Cons: may feel hot for some people. Not sure I'd wear it for extended direct sunlight in hot climates.

I love the foldable bill. Great feature. I also love the small bill size. The hat is a great material and handles sweat well. After washing It shrinks up just a touch then stretches back out. I jazzed with my purchase.

1. This hat does what it's supposed to do: it adds eye-cover from the sun.
2. The brim has a lower profile, rendering it less obtrusive than a lot of comparable ballcaps.
3. This is a stylish hat: I receive ongoing compliments whenever I wear it, it comes in a variety of colors, and it covers a bad-hair day with a great-hat day!
4. This hat is super lightweight and packable: It can fold up to fit in your pocket.
5. This hat is durable: I have had one for at least five years, worn it and washed it a ridiculous number of times, and while it's finally showing some signs of wear, I know it has at least a decade of use left in it.
6. Make sure you use a wash-and-dry cycle for it to fit properly.

I love this hat. It is great for travel. I have a suggestion for it. Add a fold down eye mask inside front body. I wore it on a long flight, and pulled it down over my eyes, but needed more coverage. I feel silly wearing a typical eye mask.

Very solid hat. I have been wearing it almost daily at work (a pretty active job), on a couple hikes, and even during bike rides. It's lightweight and the foldable brim is great for tossing it into a bag or pocket. XL size fits as an XL hat should which is nice since I have trouble finding comfortable hats sometimes. I also receive compliments on it often. May even buy another color.

It is not easy to find a hat with a reasonable bill for my listed activities. Also, having a hat that can be folded (or shoved) into a pocket is a big plus. Binocular and spotting scope use also work better with a shorter bill. Another plus is the size. I need a "large", and "extra-large" is too big. "One Size" hats usually use some adjustment strap that is a compromise. My wife saw this hat style in Maine, and by by good fortune the store had my size. On losing the hat back in DC, I thought reorder would be easier. Nopeit's mail only. My usual supplier seems to regard this style of hat as out of character for the outdoor demographic.

This is the second one of these hats. I got another one, not because the old one wore out, but because I thought I lost it. I found the old one hours after he new one showed up. Now, I have two!

I actually ended up buying 2 because I thought I lost the first one! But I found it
in my car. I buy these caps because they fit better and look better than any brimmed cap!
Great colors too.
