It's funny that other reviewers said this hat was too big, because I had the opposite problem.  I wear a large to extra large hat, and this hat was too tight.  I could force it on, but it would have given me a headache if I would have wore it for any length of time.  Overall, if the hat would have fit, it seemed like a decent hat.  I mean, it would have protected your neck just fine from the sun which is all this hat is for.
