My husband has bought on of these two years In a row. He absolutely loves it. The first one we bought, started to turn a different color after wearing every day for a year. But thats to be expected! It held up well and did not fall apart, even with washing at least once a month. He said its a comfortable fit, and doesnt take long to break in. Plus, it doesnt look cheaply made. Its a fine looking hat! Im sure i will be buying another again in a year
