Had high hopes for this fedora. But when both the original and reordered hat came bent, I didn’t see the packability of it. Sadly, retuned. Maybe you will have better luck with your purchase! I do like the look of it!
I ordered this hat in the peanut color. It is a nice, well made hat. Although it fits properly, the top of the hat seems too high. I do like the wider brim but did not particularly like the brown trim. My husband said it reminded him of a cigar salesman...not the look I was going for! I love Javits hats but I did return this one.
I really like this hat- it fits my head perfectly and it feels secure. There is variation in the sizing so it is not easy to buy this hat online based on the stated circumference because you may need to try on several to find one that fits. I lucked out in that the black and the cream sent to me both fit me and they arrived in great condition as well. This fedora reminds me of the 70's and something Annie Hall might wear- exudes a cool retro vibe. The fact that it is rated SPF50 is a total bonus.
This hat is a great shape, the brim is slightly larger than a normal fedora to provide some extra sun protection. There is a type of elastic on the inside to make the hat fit different head sizes which I appreciate having a smaller head! For reference, I am an XS in Brixton hats. I have never spent more than $50 on a hat before, but I believe this one is worth it as I’ve already worn it more than any hat I’ve ever had!
