The hat got wet and the dye in leather strap stained the hat, and I can't get out it out! The hat looks nasty now!I really like this hat. However I'm not sure it was worth the expensive price tag... I got a couple other good hats for 1/2 the cost...update: It's been 2 months now that I've had this hat. I've only worn it a couple of times, and today the cord (a very soft, thin leather type material) that keeps it on my head just snapped! I'm really disappointed. This is a very expensive hat to have it break the cord. Now it won't stay on if there is any wind at all (and where we live there is always at least some wind...) I don't know how to get it repaired... :(Update #2: I contacted Amazon (as they were the seller that I purchased from) and they are sending a replacement hat, even though it's been more than the allotted time for returns. Yeah for Amazon customer support!!!I love this hat!! I burn very easily and go for walks every day. This is the first hat that actually protects all of my face. It has a very wide brim all the way around. So many hats are only extra wide on the sides or extra long in the front. It fits really well and also has the chord to tighten around your chin on windy days. It actually works and is easy to tighten and loosen. if i don't want to use the chord, I just tuck it into the top of the hat. I actually bought a second one in case I ever lose the one I have. I don't want to be without it now!This is my 3rd Pistil hat, (2nd Mina sun). I love the adjustable brim. The yellow color is more of a dark mustard. Kind of fun and funky. The only thing I'm not crazy about is that this is such a lightweight hat it flies off with the slightest breeze. Even with the chin strap it still wants to take flight.I have a big head and this hat is tight.At almost 4.5", the hat has one of the largest brims around. I love it. It is comfortable and does a great job of keeping the sun off my face. I also like the gold color. It is sunny and cheery, without the harmful effects of the sun.4 stars only because I feel like the wire in the brim makes it a little fragile to easily pack in a bag. I find that it is too easy to kink the brim and mis-shape the hat. Otherwise it is comfortable, lightweight, and cool.I wear this light-weight hat on walks and during gardening work. Hair & face stay protected from damaging rays, but head stays cool. I also like the color, which I believe was called "fig". Has a thin adjustable under-chin strap that keeps the hat on my head when a gust of wind catches it.
