Got this hat on sale, love the profile. Several other brands have either a cinch cord or other form of tightening the hat. According to the sizing I need a large, but the lightest breeze will send the hat flying because it sits a smudge too loose. I've tried to size down but it's too tight and gives me headaches. Would love to see a Velcro strap or cinch cord to adjust how tight this cap is, that or an elasticized material/band so it fit snugly.

Have had 4 of these hats previously and really like them. Very comfortable, cool on hot days, and handy. I had xlarge before and fit just right. Ordered 4 more because some were on sale. Disappointed when they arrived. They are not the same size. They seem to be a half or full size small. Hopefully they will stretch because I hate sending things back. Must be made by a different place. Oh well.

Brim is a bit short, but folds and stores well.

My husband bought this for himself. He bought XL and it was to small. When I called to return I was told it is sized for unisex and as a result runs small so keep this in mind when ordering.

Great hat that shrinks slightly when washed. I first bought a medium that was too large and then a small which was way to small. Turns out that all I needed to do was run the medium through the was and it would fit perfectly. So if you find yourself caught between sizes think about sizing up. This hat is great for everything. I use it as a travel hat and I even do some gym climbing in it. Light weight foldable/smashable and a good price. As an amature photographer I like the short brim as it stays out of the way when using a dSLR.

Great hat to throw in the bag for when you need it and not worry about it getting squished and misshapen. Wish is had a slit for a ponytail to go through the back. That would make it my favourite hat.

Love this hat, and after losing one on a trip tried to replace it. But the XL now fits like the L used to a few years ago. Too small and returned. Other than that it's a great hat and I've still got one of the old ones that I wear quite a bit.

Love this hat. Light-weight, great for traveling, versatile, easy to clean. 4 stars instead of 5 only because the hat is a bit deeper than I'd prefer - I have a big grape on my shoulders, and when I put it on, it fits well in terms of diameter, but there's still a little bit of space between the top of my head and the hat - not a deal-breaker, just not perfection. Love the fold, too.

I bought this hat to wear on a six month trip to Nepal, Thailand and New Zealand. I pretty much wore it every day, rain or shine. I used it while hiking, on the beach, or in town. It keeps the sun and rain off of your face and packs down amazingly small. It's a one size fits all, and it fit me perfectly but it may not fit people who have smaller heads. Because I wore it so much the green color faded from the elements. I think it looks cool faded but others may not.

Good hat, only thing is it feels a little loose. Pity it doesn't have any sort of rain proof lining. Other than that, stylish, and comfortable, very good in strong sun.

I bought the XL and it is still too small for my head. Other than that is a nice hat and I have no complaints.

I love this hat but there is no way to wear it with a ponytail. To be perfect, this hat needs a hole at the back so a ponytail can be pulled through it.

I bought this because the radar visor isn't available anymore. I don't like this har as much as the visor. I have thick hair that seems to prevent this hat from staying on my head very well. I do love its packability though. Hoping OR will bring back the visor.

I had the old version of this hat but have worn it so many times it is getting holey so i decided to buy a new one. i'm disappointed in the new version because the brim is too short to block out the sun. don't know why they went to this design but i like the old design so much better as the purpose of the hat for me was to block the sun; the old one did that, the new one doesn't.

The hat design is awesome and looks great, but unfortunately just a bit too small. I measured my head, and since I have short hair felt this should be true, but the medium recommended is tight and can lead to headaches and severe hat marks after wearing... Highly recommended the hat, but a size larger, especially if you have hair lol.

I love the design of this cap, and the fig color is lovely. I do wish the sizing worked better for me. I ordered a large by accident, and it actually fit pretty well but I worried it would blow off (a bit loose). I sent it back (not happy about the shipping cost) and ordered a medium--and it's too small! I normally wear a medium just fine. I can put it on but it wants to pop off because it's snug. And it is a little uncomfortably tight if I crammed it on. I can't bear more shipping fees so I'm keeping it and hoping it stretches out.

I ordered an XL and it was way too small. Otherwise it would have been a perfect hat to throw in the pack for the trail.

I have a winter hat the same size that fits perfect, but the XL version of this one was way too tight. I gave it to my wife, but it's a too big for her especially when it's windy.

Packs up small. Can fight light rain. Weighs almost nothing. Great for hiding helmet head post ride. Stuffs into the bike pack and you don't even know it is there.
