These are great hats
We’re big fans of Dorfman Pacific hats. They’re lightweight. They’re comfortable. They last a long time. (We bought this new one because we left one in a hotel room on a previous trip.) The sizes have been consistent for at least twenty years. This particular model has a nice stiff brim, a sturdy tie and is ventilated so It can be used on hot or cold days. We’re fans of other models as well.Highly recommended.

Fits well and has a wide brim
I have had this same hat for about 20 years. Itâs now pretty beat, so I needed a new one. Love the wide brim which keeps the sun off my face. The mesh part of the hat provides good ventilation. Great sun hat and it is also great at keeping the rain off your face when caught in a rain shower. ð

Great hat. Lousy strap.
The hat itself is great. Wasn’t crushed at all when I got it. Nice air flow to help keep it cool on hot days. Brim is just the right size without being overpowering. The only thing that kept this hat from a 5 star is the tie down. It’s uncomfortable and not very functional.

The best sun hat I’ve ever had or seen
I just ordered my second hat because my dog chewed my first one that I’ve had for 20 years. There a lots of great things about this hat. 1: the thick brim never flops down in your eyes, no matter how wet or windy it gets. (I wear my hat swimming, so I know). 2 and 3: wind goes right through the mesh, which is great for two reasons, first because it keeps your head cool, and second, because it won’t blow the hat off your head. #4: very wide wraparound brim offers terrific sun protection from all directions. #5: Crush it, roll it, stuff it in a corner of your suitcase, no problem. I personally think it looks better after it’s been abused for awhile. I soaked my new hat in water and then rolled it and folded it numerous times to give it an aged look. 6. comes with a leather thong to keep it around your neck, or to keep it on your head in extreme winds. 7. It’s a good looking hat, whether you like it looking new, or beat up. 8. I know from experience that this hat is very tough and will last for many years (assuming you keep it away from your dog….)

Really good quality, seems heavy for hot weather, but so far so good. Well ventilated . Looks great.

Great hat for gardening
This is my second one of these hats and I absolutely love them. Comfortable and sturdy. I wear a hat every time I go out to garden. And with over an acre, thatâs a lot of time spent outside. It gets a lot of wear and holds up well.

A bit bigger than one I already own, but still a killer hat
I’m a petite woman. The circumference of my head is about 21.5. I bought one of these at a local store a few years ago and it is the best hat I’ve ever worn. Surprised to find out that this is a men’s hat because a size Small fits me like a glove. I always have a hard time finding hats that truly fit me. I get compliments on this hat all the time. I like it so much that I decided to buy another one. My local store didn’t have them anymore and it was harder to find online that I thought it would be. I found it here on Amazon and ordered the size Small. It doesn’t fit quite as well as the other one I have which is a bit disappointing, but it’s no so big that I have to stuff a bunch of foam in the sweat band to get it to fit. I did end up buying the cork hat sizing strips here on Amazon and they are much better than the foam ones (a bit pricey, but trust me, worth it). All in all, I’m happy with the hat and glad I got it, even if it is a tiny bit bigger than the one I already have.

Not bad but not perfect
UPDATED BELOWThis is a decent hat of this type, but by no means the best.My basis of comparison is the similar but somewhat cheaper Redhead brand of hat available at certain outdoors outfitter shops. I purchased this Dorfman hat because the other simply is not available in 3X.Comparing the two, I find that this hat seems to have better finish insofar as the construction of the hat itself . . . the Redhead has extra wasted material in places whereas this one is clean. The leather strap is decent. However, the leather holder (as compared to a wood bead) is virtually useless. I have placed the Redhead leather and bead on it and it is a vast improvement.More importantly, however, the mesh is much weaker in this hat. The actual hole size is not too different if at all, but the mesh is lighter and finer here, and as a result this hat simply will not hold any shape. Placed on a table top down, it collapses. Placed on the head, it immediately appears crumpled. The mesh is also much more see-through than the Redhead hat, so that hair and skin are visible. If I could, I would place the Redhead mesh on this hat.The brim is of good size and adequate stiffness, though I will be scotchgarding in the hopes of avoiding the problems others have noted. The crown is of good height and construction.All in all, it is adequate, but I will be having to make too many modifications to bring it up to the Redhead standard to give it five stars.UPDATE: The hat barely survived daily wear last summer and was always a hassle insofar as keeping shape of mesh and brim. I used hairspray and stiffen-quik on the mesh but that barely held, and the mesh eventually took on stains. The brim itself became soft and shapeless near the forehead and so the front would not retain shape properly. When I pulled it out to use it this year I realized I just couldn’t bear to wear it in public, so it is now relegated to yardwork. I will try a Henschel 5320-95.

Went on holiday to Italian Amalphi coast, and visted Salerno on a boat trip. An Italian man started talking to me in the street, in Italian. When he realised neither my wife, nor I, spoke Italian, he broke into English, to say that he liked my hat. IMO, there is not greater compliment one can get, than from the stylish Italians. So, very, very, happy!
