It fit just fine but the bill is HUGE and looked absolutely rediculous!! I had no choice but return it.

It fits my big head and breathes well, but the bill is so wide it could be a beret. I like a more duckbill type of look.

Best Deals for Big Mesh Ivy Cap-Black

This is a hat that is made for up to a 3XL head. Therefore, yes, the brim might look large on you if your head is toward the smaller end of this hats stretchable size range, as a previous reviewer complained. A problem exists in that most brims look small on those with large heads, and this hat is made to be a solution. Assuming that you want a larger hat for a larger head, this hat is a good option in a mesh ivy style. It is one of the few/only mesh Ivy caps of which I know that doesn't have that oh so tired and ridiculous looking Kangol logo on the back.

I have a 3XL (25 in.) head and the hat fits, but it was a little tight at first due to its ambitious niche of fitting an XL through a 3XL head. In my opinion, the manufacturer should stick to more narrow size ranges in their stretchable hats to assure the most comfortable fit. Though, it seems to be fitting easier as I stretch out the elastic a bit. However, people like me with large heads have been living with tight fitting and non-fitting hats for our entire lives, and the last thing that we want is another tight fit when we order a hat that is supposedly made for large heads. We want to be comfortable with no retriction whatsoever.

Honest reviews on Big Mesh Ivy Cap-Black

Several other reviewers mentioned the size of this "one size fits all" cap. They're entirely correct. I have a head size that would normally be classified as XL (motorcycle helmets, etc). This cap fits loose as a bucket on my head, and the back side of it is just ginormous. Since it's not worth the effort to return it, I've tried temporarily to get it to fit by rolling under some of the back of the hat under along with the headband (kind of like how my wife rolls her shirtsleeves' hem under a time or two). It shortens the "back top" of the hat by about 1.5" or so, fitting my head more adequately.

It worked well enough that I'll make this a permanent fix by running a stitch through it to keep it in place. Looks much better this way and fits just about perfectly.
