Merchant originally sent wrong size by mistake, immediately upon notification they sent out the right size. Before the wrong size was in back in their hands, the correct sized hat was in mine. Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship and top-notch customer service.I went looking for a very large brimmed leather hat and boy howdy did I find it. This thing is exactly what I was looking for and it fit perfectly on my head. The pictures given by the seller are accurate and is what you'll get. The bendable metal is a plus because it helps keep the brim from just flopping down but not give it too stiff of a look.It's a good sun hatBig. No, bigger than that. It huge! I'm 6 feet tall and build like a fireplug and the brim extends past my shoulders. The wire edge is easy to shape, and the leather is a good, heavy grade.Add some plumes and go buckle your swash! This hat is epic.So why 4 stars? Because I want you to know I'm not a compensated reviewer, and 6 stars wasn't an option.This hat has a HUGE brim! It doesn't fit through narrow doorways. It can potentially obstruct your vision. The wire in the edge is alright, but could be a bit more robust by perhaps 5%. It takes a bit of massaging to get the brim to shape up, but it does eventually take a form.I received this earlier then estimated, and the leather quality is great. But i am only giving it a 4 out of 5, because the images of this guy.. are misleading to the product. They're unprofessional, first off. But second, the hat itself is nothing like displayed. The leather is very thin, and the wire can't hold the weight of it. Which causes the hat to never be straight "flat" on the brim. It forever looks like it's been sat on. I was hoping for a nice leather hat, that maintains at least some form of flatness in the brim. If this is what you're looking for, i would reconsider. If you fold one side up, it will become rigid enough to be flat on the hanging side; but not if you leave both down. However, it fits perfectly if you're looking for a costume hat, for a rough and tumble pirate or Tochiro Oyama cosplay.Good quality hat. I need to order an ostrich feather but this will be awesome for my renaissance faire duelist costume.The hate fit well as far as the circumference of my husband’s head but the brim was very wide. The back of the brim touched the top of his shoulders. If you want a wide brim, this is the hat for you!
