This hat is like a cap; basic headgear. I'll probably get a couple more of these so I'll have one handy in the car or tool shed. It's well constructed. The fabric is substantial, yet soft after a run through the washer and dryer. Like a pair of your favorite jeans, it will get better with age. You could also stick some pin-back buttons or an iron-on patch (favorite sports team, etc.) on it for a little self-expression. It's like blue jeans for your head. Basic.
