I have alot of hair and wear it up in a clip most of the time so this was perfect. I was careful to shop around before I purchased this hat, some have more bill in the back so they are a pain; theyjust pop off your head b/c they are too big int he back but this one does not do that.  This one is smaller in the back. It does not get in the way when I lean back against a chair/lounger. It works out great.  After I bought the brown one I ordered a black one b/c I like it so much. Perfect for outings this spring/summer.
