I purchased this hat to match my bathing suit for my first trip to Hawaii. The Brim hat was perfect - the color was exactly as pictured. Initially I thought the ribbon was purely decoration, but after arriving in Hawaii I learned it was practical as well. Being on a boat several days with motor propelling us forward, as well as the activity of the wind, I quickly untied the ribbon and found it fit perfectly, tying nicely under my chin, keeping it from blowing off.

The brim was just the right amount to cover the face from the sun, but not too long that there was any impairment of vision.

Also the fact that you could smash it to have it fit in your bag.

I recommend this hat for summer wear, home or abroad.
