Good Hat! |
| Rating: |  |
| We bought 4 of these for a long weekend trip outdoors. I followed a measuring guide found online and each person measured the circumference around the head about 1" above their ears. I ordered slightly larger than the actual head size to give just a tad bit of room. For example, both of the womens heads measured 22" & I ordered them size 7 1/8. The 23" head got a 7 3/8 size hat. They all fit great! The hats are washable & will last a very long time. They never got hot on our heads & I enjoyed wearing a hat instead of sunglasses for a change. (no raccoon eyes!) |

Best Hat Ever! |
| Rating: |  |
| This is a great hat that can be worn anywhere. I don't often look good in hats but this one does look good on me and I love it. I've gotten great compliments. One note, it does run small. I normally wear a small (6 3/4) but had to get a size 7 in this one. Well worth it and you can't beat STP prices! Buy it you will be happy you did. |

Great Hat |

| This hat has a stiff brim so it does not flap all over when I am on the water paddling my kayak. It looks nice in the brush or about town and it has kept it's shape nicely. I keep money in the hidden compartment for emergencies. I have washed it in a mountain spring and under a faucet with soap and it is fine. Quick drying. Best hat I have ever owned. |

Versatile, Well-Made Hat |

| My husband has worn this hat for everything from boating to the arboretum. He remarks about the cool comfort of this lightweight hat and appreciates the anti-glare feature and wind cords. The wide brim keeps the sun at bay and the color is especially nice and goes with everything. He had me order a second hat to use exclusively for yardwork. The Tilley quality is remarkable and this style is actually chic! |

not for hot weather |

| I bought the hat mostly for sun protection and it does that well. However, where there is sun there is heat and the hat just does not breathe well. I still like it, but miss my old Outdoor Research hat that i got from Sierra a dozen years ago and recently lost. The Tilley is a replacement hat and, in my opinion, does not measure up to the OR. |

| It's great to have sun protection in a comfy hat. We aren't big (chemical) sunblock users, so these hats are a great solution. My husband has been seen even wearing his in the house, which really looks funny, chin strap and all, but I think he forgets he has it on. Be sure to take the time to measure for size, and they do stay on in the wind. |

Tilley Hats RoCk |
| Rating: |  |
| Just look at all those 5-stars. The Tilley website says to pick the next size up, to give a looser fit, so those 4-star ratings are wrongly skewed. I love the fit, finish, lightness, the green under brim threw me off at first, but it is very cool and glare free. I think this hat will serve well in the fall and early winter as well. |

Best hat I've ever owned! |

| After purchasing this hat at the discounted rate I believe that these hats are worth every dollar at full price. I didn't get my favorite color, but it served it's purpose well and will get plenty of use. I plan on purchasing another in the future and I'll get the color I want...even if I have to pay full price. |

Almost perfect |

| Hat would be perfect if only Tilley had used mesh grommets rather than just leaving a wide open hole in the hat. I'm afraid it might be a welcome opening for mosquitoes. I haven't worn yet in mosquito infested area yet but will be prepared with spray and maybe some duct tape to cover holes! |

Always buy a Tilley Hat |

| I use my Tilley Hat as everyday wear. If it`s hot out or sunny, I grab this hat. I love it with gardening. And, I`ve met so many other nice people who are also wearing their Tilley hats. They strike up conversations with me, usually when we`re both waiting in line somewhere. |
