Husband loves it!
My husband has a gigantic head, where it's basically impossible to find a fitting hat for them. This hat actually fits their head rather nicely, and the adjustable rubber band makes it such that they can also wear it on our daily bike rides!The super wide brim also makes them very cool on sunny days and covers their face during most times of the day.I will say that for the shipment, the hat will come curved, but you can actually press it flat like you would press a seam when you're working on a sewing project. However, please keep in mind that this is polyester or synthetic fabric, and please use a protective fabric before blasting it with a crap ton of steam. I accidentally melted the fabric on one tiny spot. It's not a big deal, but please keep that in mind. Look up how to press a seam, grab an iron, a cotton fabric, and an ironing board, and you should be good to go!

Great item!!!!
Bought this as a gift for my Poolman. It fits perfectly and the material is lightweight yet strong. The wide brim really helps during hot summer days. WELL Worth the price.

Very Good Sun Protection With Some Drawbacks
The wide brim on this hat provides excellent sun protection. I use it when gardening or working around the house and I appreciate the shade this thing throws. The wide brim also helps with Deer Flies, which we have a lot of this time of year. I think the brim confuses them and they don't know where to land.With all this said, this hat does have its deficiencies. First, the sizing material used for keeping the brim stiff digs into my forehead. This occurs despite the fact my hat size is at the lower limit of the product size specification (58 cm). The internal head band material doesn't seem to provide enough cushion to alleviate the pressure. When wearing the hat for extended periods it becomes somewhat uncomfortable. I would imagine this to be a more significant problem if one's head size approaches the upper circumference specification (60 cm). It is important to note that if your head's circumference is less than 58 cm this hat will not fit you. The drawstring mechanism will not pull the hat tighter than it's minimum inside brim dimension (58 cm). If your head/hat size is like mine, you will find the hat to be loose fitting.Additionally, the internal head band material does not appear to have much capability to absorb perspiration. Unlike my Columbia Booney Hat, for instance, I find perspiration running down my face in no time with this hat. I would recommend to the manufacture of this hat to beef up the head band material to alleviate this problem and the issue with pressure points.In summary, if you're looking for a hat that will throw a lot of shade, this hat is for you. It may not be your most comfortable hat however.

Great, wide brim! Great for gardening and hiking!
Yes, the hat does arrive all folded up, but the folds are slowly working out over time and not a big deal at all. As a gardener and hiker I was looking for a hat that would cover my head and neck and this works very completely. On my other sun hats there is an area at the base of my neck and shoulders that always manages to get some sun and with this hat that area is covered...thankfully. That was my top issue when looking for a new and better sun hat as a person with a history of sun cancer. As a hiker, this hat also works better than my other hats because the brim doesn't flip or down when I am jogging up or down hills. The brim stays in place perfectly, as long as I have the ties zipped up tight under my chin.The biggest downfall is that the brim falls down on my forehead and blocks my line of sight looking forward. It works best when I'm looking down (gardening) because even though I clench the toggle to tighten around my small head, it still slides down a bit and I have a hard time keeping it up at the correct angle to walk with my head looking straight forward. I hope I can figure out a way around this issue and make it tighter for me so I can see better, but as far as sun blocking ability it is terrific.Another bonus is the material / fabric on the top of the hat is very thin and breathable so my head doesn't get so hot and sweaty in the sun----huge bonus! It has a mesh around the sides of the hat too---extra cooling. I looked at hats here on Amazon for weeks before making this important decision and couldn't be happier with my purchase. Right now I'm still banging into doors and things with my brim as I'm not used to having such a big hat on! It is kind of comical! I'll get used to it soon!! Great hat!!!
