I really like the hat, but I agree with Todd's comment about the poor packaging. An otherwise very nice hat that would be much nicer if it had arrived without the creases of being flattened during shipment. I too am trying to work those creases out. A thin piece of paper was wrapped around the hat which was shipped in a plastic bag. I buy a lot of hats, and it is rare that they don't come in a sturdy box with thin cardboard inserts in the hat to hold its shape. Even with the bag shipment, it would have been better to stuff the hat thoroughly with the same kind of paper that was wrapped around it. Also, the color of the hat is much different than the photos. But I actually like the lighter shade better. Just be aware if you were looking for a dark colored hat, this isn't it. The hat is predominately light brown, not navy, as described. But it is a very attractive fabric. And the hat is about as lightweight and comfortable as they come.
