Classic Western Cavalry Hat Replica

OK, this hat is very light-weight of porous material, has three vent rivets per side and the “sweat band” is actually an elastic cloth material that allows further air flow. Like a suspension liner. The description is not correct; the INSIDE circumference is NOT 22 inches as per the ad; this would put the actual size at or under US size 7. My own head is 23 1/2 inches, or size 7 3/8 and this hat fits loosely. This is good as in many cases one might wish to add a cellulose sweat pad, as did I, to the front of the hat for comfort and better fit. With a thick sweat pad, it fits perfectly. If you are used to wearing a cowboy-type hat most of the year, this hat is great for really hot summer days. It provides the requisite shade, is “airy” and light. Another desirable feature of this hat is that it takes to personalized “shaping” with tea kettle steam easily. This is a better value than the ad describes.
