The hat I received in no way resembles the hat in the photos. It is a soft wool hat , round crown, with no "bowler" shaping whatsoever. It might be grey, but appears more of a dark taupe/brown. The interior sweatband is cheap synthetic fabric with an elastic drawstring to adjust it smaller. The hatband does not fit neatly to the crown. It is, in fact, a cheap Chinese knockoff that might be worth half the price. I'm a costumer and I do a lot of hats. I bought this one because I liked the grey felt with the brown hatband. I originally had three in different sizes on my order, but changed it to just one as I had never purchased from this seller or brand. Phew! I'll keep it as I can remake it into something more suitable.
