Conclusion---The hat is very well made.Typical craftsmanship from Carhartt,however since the hat is only lightly structured,it gets dented easily and makes your head look lumpy.Dont know why someone would stitch a hat so well and use strong materials but then not fully structure a hat?!!? I will NOT wear the hat and i threw it in the closet.I should have looked up what a structured hat meant first before buying which is my fault.I didnt buy this hat off Amazon which clearly states lightly structured.I bought from another retailer which didnt give much detail and didnt say much about the hats construction.Guess i should have checked Amazon first and looked up the meaning of "structured hat" :(
--oh yeah if anyone was wondering, this is a fitted/flexfit style hat which is known as Carhartts Workflex style and there is a small logo patch stitched on the rear of the hat since there are no pictures that show this at this time.

I am really picky about hats. Especially ball caps. You would think by now I would learn to only buy what i could try on in a store but I haven't. I am a big fan of Amazon. In my corner of Alaska, stores are scarce and Carhartt's are the present you get from your dad when he has decided you are a man. So I am a big fan of the brand and have been around it my whole life and can attest to the quality.Anyway, other reviewers have said this hat crushes easily and doesn't hold its structure, that is exactly what I love about it. It molds to the shape of my head perfectly and doesn't have a high profile look to it. Out of the box it is extremely comfortable. The brim is stiff enough to shape easily and the flex fit style is the best I have worn. Even when I order the L/XL sizes of Flex Fit they usually squeeze my head and give me headaches until I am able to break them in. I ordered the L/XL of this hat and it is perfect out of the box. It doesn't have a whole lot of stretch / elasticity. Some Flex Fit hats can stretch what seems like another inch or so. This one doesn't flex so much.
I really like the subdued logo and think it is just a sweet hat all the way around. I'm tempted to order several just so that I have them just in case I lose them or something.
