Customer Reviews Arc'teryx Bird Cap

No flex in band and no adjustment so unless you have a small to medium head this won't fit. Images suggest it has standard ball cap pop adjuster - it doesn't. Very poorly thought out considering the innovative design team at Arcteryx

The hat was better before being revised. Wish I stocked up before it changed, returned the new one.

It was my favourite cap before, when Arcteryx still worked with FlexFit. I lost my old cap and bought a new one. I'm very dissapointed it looks cheap and won't fit my head. You shouldn't buy it except if they bring back flex fit.

The fabric is non-flexible and the cap will only fit people with the exact same head size as the cap. If You normally wear size L (59) or larger the cap will probably not fit You.

Bring back the FlexFit hats! These new ones suck! Fit and overall fit is terrible. Feels cheap. It looks nice. Too bad it'll only hang in my closet, never to be worn...

The hat fits really small. Great for a teenager or a women. Not made for the average male size head.

You gotta have some sort of sizing option even with a flex fit band. Your prices aren't cheap, don't let your practices become cheap.

I don't understand why it only comes in one size now. You have to have the perfect size head for this hat to fit. Please bring back the S/M and L/XL sizing and this product will be great again.

I ordered an L/XL. The diameter was fine as it's your normal flex fit sizes. However, the sides were not engineered for L/XL. It sat perfectly on my buddy's medium head but not my large head. I gave it away to him. Waste of money. If your L/XL head is short and squatty this hat will fit. If your head is proportioned correctly buy another companies flex fit hat. It's a hat made for ants.

This hat doesn't fit at all. I got one of the size S/M flexfit bird caps last summer and liked it so much I wore it to a point that it was fine for a new one. Got what I thought would be the same hat to replace it and was extremely disappointed. Sits way up high on my had, leave huge gaps the tops of my ears end up in and blows of at the slightest breeze. Don't bother if you have an average or smaller sized melon.

I have owned at least a dozen of these hats. Ordered several a year in different colors for many years now. This was my go to hat. The "new" version is not a nice hat. I was very disappointed to know this product had been changed so much for the worse. I would not buy this hat again. As a long time customer I used to buy Arc'teryx gear knowing it would be a good quality product. I am not sure of that anymore.

To reiterate what other reviewers have written, this hat is fatally flawed in that it is far too small. I have fit comfortably in previous Arc'teryx S/M sized hats (the smaller option, when two sizes are offered). I could barely pull this on my head. It does not appear to have the elasticity needed to adjust to even a moderately sized head. Hopefully Arc will recall this and reissue something usable next season.

I bought this because I love the brand, and needed an everyday hat. I was skeptical when it said one size fits all. You should be too, if you have a medium to large head this will be great. But a large to x-large just won't work. I could squeeze it on, but you could see the band pressing through, the bottom stretched out and made the top look pointed. Arcteryc needs to make this in two sizes. I wear a 7 hat normally and can't wear this one.

I have only worn this hat a few times, I was out at Red rocks on a not so hot day, but after climbing the stairs a few times I definitely had some sweat going. Now the hat has a really gross discolored sweat stain on the front of the hat. None of my other hats have this problem on the front side! Im surprised given the cost of the hat that it's already ruined after a few weeks of use. I wont look at this brand the same.
