This is truly the ultimate pikachu hat for Pokmon lovers of any age.  Well made, excellent fit, symmetrical sewing and well-crafted embroidery details, matched ears and knitted pokball pom details wear well...plainly quality, great work in a very fun hat.  I am quite the stickler for my novelty goods holding up to being worn (and washed) frequently, and this has done a fantastic job in standing up to the challenge.  I recommend this hat highly to kids and kids at heart...it never ceases to bring a smile to children's faces in the grocer line or my peers' on campus.  And it keeps my ears warm in 20 degree cold snaps!  Definitely my favourite hat, and well worth the money if you're a videogame fanatic or just like geek culture.  A+, Nintendo on another fun, quality product!
