The material on this hat is thin. It probably won't last as long as better made hats. The bill is slightly big for the size of the hat and off centered. My 12-year-old daughter said it looks funny and makes my head look big. For the price, it's OK. It won't be my first choice for a "black hat", but I'll probably wear it if I'm doing some work in the yard, or if I can't find one of my other hats.
