Econscious 100% Cotton Twill Adjustable Corps Hat

I am quite particular about the hats I wear (as I stop and think about it, most people are... I mean... you don't just go around shoving anything onto your head and calling it a day... do you?) and this particular hat is just comfortable and great. I bought it for a "Work and Play" hat where I needed to be able to use it for long periods of time with full ear enclosing hearing protection and headphones, and has quickly turned into a hat I wear all the time because it is so light, comfortable, and good looking. The Particulars: The Cotton Twill is comfortable right out of the box, having that 'worn in/broken in' feel to it. It slides on and off smoothly with no catches, and the bill sits perfectly with the right contour with little to no adjustment. The color was true to form (at least with the green), with a just lovely faded olive 'jungle' green. It sits nicely on my head, off the ear high enough that it doesn't interfere at all with my glasses (a huge hat factor for me) but still retains a great around the skull fit. (I'd definitely recommend this hat to anyone who needs to wear sun or safety glasses all the time.) The only possible foible is the adjustment clasp. It's a friction hold design (not a buckle) and while it's not horrible, it will have 'slip'. That is to say that if you fix it tight, it will slip to a more loose position but without becoming undone, or you losing the hat off your head as it gives out. I personally found exactly where I wanted the hat, and locked it down with a bit of stout tack stitching. (one could also use a small pin if placed properly to be under the inside brim of the hat rather than exposed). The fact that it's a slip friction design rather than a buckle or snap system IMHO overrides the slip issue as it genuinely lets you size the cap to your head, and you can mod out the clasp easily enough to lock it where you want it. Conclusion: This is a great and comfortable hat. That it's only 10 bucks just makes this absolutely fan-freaking-tastic. Hand and fist above comparable options in this style of hat. Oh yeah... AND it's organic... and while I don't intend to ever eat my hat... if the fit and feel of the end product is indicative of Organic Cotton, then i'm all for finding more Organic Cotton to wear.

I got the Oyster colour and I'm always worried with hats, because they seem to always come in one size: Too Small This hat is large. My head is large and I have long hair, so I need a hat that's very accommodating. I have a heck of a time finding fitting hats and this one is just perfect. It fits over my head and actually fits. I've wasted so much money on ones that they kinda fit, but they sit on the top of my head, so if I tilt my head they just fall off. This one I can pull down to just above the top of my ears and it's a flawless snug fit. I'm happy with how large this hat is, and with the adjustment strap it'll fit people with a bigger or smaller head than mine. I was expecting this hat to be small and maybe mostly hopefully fit with the strap not being quite big enough (like the last one of this style that I got) and what I got was something that was larger than I was anticipating and a perfect fit right out of the box. Now, we'll have to see how it does when I eventually have to wash it.. and how much it holds up to abuse. I work as a technician and I wear a hat because of the places I have to go through and the hat keeps my head a little safer and clean/free of dust, spider webs, and other hazards of being in crawlspaces, attics, and dirty areas. I will try to update this review in a few months or a year, when I have an idea of how well it holds up to the heck I'll put it through. Update: So far the durability on it has been great, this poor hat has survived some rough conditions and saved my head from scratching on a nail while working in an attic. I've washed it about 10 times and just water soak rinsed it 25 now and since this hat is a light tan to begin with I haven't noticed any fade from washing, but it does appear lighter on the under side than top side. That may be sun fade or just hair products, sweat, and natural oils darkening it. Also the buckle doesn't corrode, it seems to keep quite nice looking. I'm really surprised by such reliable quality for such a low price.

Material is cotton canvas, just slightly on the heavy side, both durable and comfortable. Seems well made. Stitching and details look good. It fits me well, though my head is on the small side, I'm about size 7 1/8. There's about three more inches of slack in the strap though, so it can fit much larger heads, probably up to 8. I think those with larger heads though might find the brim too small. So guys especially who wear larger than a 7 5/8 might want to look elsewhere for that reason. That may come down to whether you like a smaller brimmed hat, though. One nice detail, unlike many "one size fits all" caps, there's a slot there with a metal ring where you can tuck in that extra couple of inches of adjustment in the strap, instead of having three inches haning lose and flapping around. Overall, solid design, looks decent, and a little different look from a ballcap.

Ok, first things first. Most of the reviews for this hat are focused on the size, and upon scrolling through a few of the screen names it is apparent most of these types of reviews were done by men. Now these guys CLEARLY don't realize this is a female hat, it just looks feminine and the sizing reflects that. Yes, it should be stated more explicitly by the seller, but that has nothing to do with the quality of the actual hat! With that said, this hat adjusts pretty wide. I have a relatively big head so I was worried about the size but the hat fits me fine. I have really long hair that reaches to my waist and I could fit all of it under the hat with some extra wiggle room, mind you I'm 5'7" so that's a lot of hair. I bought the "Earth" colored hat and it matches the supplier's image more than it matches the poorly lit photo posted by a dissatisfied customer. It's exactly the color I imagined it would be so I'm wondering if the guy is partially color blind. The posted photo made me hesitant to purchase the "Earth" colored hat because it looked really bad in the customer photo. I'm glad I went ahead and purchased it anyway! The hat is comfortable, adjusts wide, and the "Earth" color is fantastic. Buy it, with a low price and FREE SHIPPING you really can't go wrong with this awesome hat!

Well made and constructed.

it fits. but it feels like I'm wearing a kids hat. Material is okay it's thinner than other hats with similar design but not real thin. I have an about a size 8 head above 60 cm I believe it's really high I prefer more coverage in my hat, near to the ear. Even with the strap loose it still feel like it gripping my head again big head. It feels like a decent starter hat for a kid is how I best describe it.

I bought this to use as a liner for my bicycle helmet. I don't have much hair left up top (in contrast to all the bush on my chin) and the Florida sun comes through the helmet's vents enough to cause some sunburn, so I wanted some added protection. I like having cotton -- it's going to get sweaty, but cotton washes well. And I sewed a cheap cotton handkerchief to the back of it -- a la French Foreign Legion caps -- to extend the protection to my neck. That project brought me real close to the construction details of the cap, and I'm duly impressed. This is a well-made cap that I anticipate using for many years to come. Update, 5/6/2015 - Somehow, I lost the first one I bought, a year or so ago, and I had liked it so much that I ordered a replacement. This new one is even better than the other. One of the things I really like about these caps is that the band in back, that adjusts to fit the wearer's head, is NOT plastic but cotton. The first one was plenty long enough to fit any but the hugest head, but too short to fit into the retaining slot. Okay, I know I'm a bit OCD, but even though I couldn't see that tag-end, just knowing it was sticking out was a minor glitch to my. However, joy of joys, this new cap has a longer band - plenty long enough to slip into the retaining slot. I smile when I put this on!

I have ordered a second pair of these caps nine years after my original purchase. I always wear a cap or hat outdoors, partly to shade the eyes (better visibility) and partly to shade the skin (blast you, Basal-cell carcinoma!), but these short-billed caps serve a special purpose on the shooting range, where they prevent ejected shell casings from being flung into the gap between my shooting glasses and my cheeks. In particular, I have a Sig P220 Super Match which was apparently tuned at the Sig Custom Shop specifically to ping hot brass into my eyebrows. That only has to happen once before one looks for relief. Wearing one of these, there is no such "distraction," and my line of vision is unimpaired, even if I am ducking a little to minimize my frontal area. A word to the wise: These caps can be washed with your regular laundry, but do NOT put them in the dryer, as this will shrink them. Air-dry only.
