holds its shape
Great hat, it holds its shape (compared to other floppy hats) and its comfortable.Cons is that it stains easily in particular with oils (aka sunscreen), and that it lacks a stowable neck guard (available in a lot of other similar hats).

EXCELLENT hat, both features and material
I bought this one because it closely resembles a Tilley that sells for 10 times as much. I need it for work so I don't want to spend a lot of money on something. I liked it so much that after wearing it only a week I bought a second one just in case it's no longer available when I'm ready to get a replacement!Things I like about this hat compared to other boonie hats you see: the mesh has mostly closed holes. Other hats are see-through and allow the sun to directly hit your head when it's not directly over top of you, which really is most of the day! If you have thin hair, it's even worse. This mesh still allows heat and moisture to vent out.The very top of the hat has a thick foam-feeling material. The advantage of this is when the sun is actually hitting the top of your head, your skin is insulated from the sun's heat. Most other boonie hats have only a thin fabric on top, which would let the sun's heat to directly transmit to your head.The chin strap is easily removable. In this case, I thought the cord was absurdly thick and cumbersome. So I removed it entirely and replaced with a new shoe string. MUCH better. The velcro pouch in the top allows me to store the chin strap there when I don't need it, so it's completely out of the way.I have a large oval head. I typically wear 7 3/4 or XL hats. This fits me perfectly. It's snug, and just slightly snug enough that I don't need to always wear the chin strap in windy weather.I have no issues with the material or quality of workmanship. My only complaint, and it's minor, is that I got the tan color and it shows sweat marks pretty easily. But oh well, it serves the purpose.

Rumpled
The only thing disliked so far is the rumpled brim, it doesn't look real pretty like the expensive version of this hat. The chin string is thicker so it is not as cute.But: It blocks the sun like I wanted, it does not blow off when using the chin string. When I go inside and want to take it off I can hang it on my back like a Mexican cowboy in a 1960's movie - it does not get lost or get in the way. The ventilation works. It comes in a larger size than the expensive version of the similar hat.It appears to be durable and hopefully won't shrink when I wash it (have not tried that yet). The crown has thicker fabric than most of the "sun hats" out there, so it protects even if you don't have hair.I wear it for hiking and gardening so it does not need to look real pretty. I am too old to be picking up girls, so cute and pretty just don't matter near as much as affordable, effective, comfortable, sun protection.

Talla única no es favorable
Bonito y funcional sombrero . Pero no es favorable venga en talla única porque yo tendré que buscar la forma de adaptarlo para que sea Justo a mi cabeza . Estos sombreros deben venir en 3 tallas .

If I could give it more than 5 stars I would!
I was shopping for a hat to wear at the Grand Canyon to keep my head cool. I looked at so many hats!! Finally at Cabela's found one that I thought was $29.99--- brought to to check out and it was $90! So that was my introduction to how expensive Tilly sun hats are! Wow....so no way....I kept looking. Almost went back to grab the other hat that was so similar to it - that was actually that lower price. But decided to wait. Came home and searched again online. Found this hat and the first review mentioned it was just like a Tilley! So I bought it! And it came today and I couldn't be happier! Even my husband wants one now. I highly recommend this hat - soft and pliable but stiff/firm enough to hold up - crown and brim. It is so comfortable on and I love the secret pocket and the breathable mesh. Perfect hat for the price!!

Great hat
This is a great hat for the price. It would be perfect if there was a size adjustment cord. I saw that someone else had slid a piece of wire through the opening in the back to stiffen up the brim, did that a it works. That said, it’s the second one I’ve bought.

A great buy at a great price
Im one of those very indecisive shoppers who scoured the Internet for a functional hiking hat that wasn't a $90 "Tilley" hat. I don't need what the pros need. I got on 2-3 day hikes every week and just wanted something that fit my big head and kept my neck and ears shielded. I ordered a Columbia hat and that was too small.This one for right away nice and comfortable and my favorite thing about going low on budget is that you really feel like you're getting a value as opposed to paying a higher price and then having to convince yourself it was worth it.I will spend money on things I think are worth it (my feet and barbecue) but this hat was exactly what I was searching for.
