Since I was trying to find a more grown up - conservative look for my 51 year old husband, I ordered this leather (fedora) hat as a Christmas present for him. It is not short in the back and longer in the front, as a fedora is. It is more round and much more like a Run DMC hat! That said - HE LOVED IT! He wears it all of the time no matter what the occasion. This hat does go very well with his leather coat, dressy or casual suits and it also goes well with T-shirts and jeans. After this hat arrived, I actually purchased a real leather fedora since I was going for a different more classy and stylish look for him. He prefers to wear this hat almost everywhere we go. Apparently, this hat is what he really wanted to have! His friends really like it too! Since it makes him really happy I guess I can live with it!
