The hat is a little heavy but it does stay put should one be out on a windy day. It comes with a chin cord and looks pretty good altogether. The leather needs a little treatment before being exposed to rain/snow. I tried the hat under a faucet and the water does bead off but, there was a little soaking in some areas. So, I will be getting some mink oil to condition the leather (and soften it) before taking it out.
Fold it, flatten it, etc, it will hold its shape! It's a little stiff for folding so some leather oil is needed. For such a nice hat, why would one even consider folding it up into a bag anyways?
Four stars! [I took one star away because the stitching ruined a bit of the cooper band that runs around the hat]

beautiful hat, but was way too small. The amazon hat size chart says I wear a medium, but I had to return it and order the large instead. Cost me 9.45 to return it. I'm looking forward to getting the larger size hat.Best Deals for Barmah Hats Squashy Bronco T2 Leather Hat 1022CD
I originally ordered a similar Barmah hat in size medium, but it ran small and looked tiny on my head. I was going to return it, but it was such a beautiful hat that a family member it actually did fit quickly claimed it, lol... and I ordered this similar style (without mesh) in a size large. The large fit is a bit loose and I have a lot of hair. But it's a comfortable loose. I don't want too snug or floppy big. Everyone says it looks proportional and not too big. It feels comfortable.The deep brown color is beautiful and the style has a whole lot of character... I'd say it looks great on a male or female. I love the hat and am taking it on an outdoor journey abroad as the style just suited the adventure, lol. I will not be wearing it during rainy season or snow... can't say what's going to happen if it gets wet. But I'm going to look great on any non-rainy day! lol. It is "squashy" and will pack easy in a suitcase or backpack without taking much space. Very convenient!
My dad is also a size medium and he hardly has any hair and we can wear the same ball cap... I had him try it on and he said this large felt big on him and he preferred a medium. So either my dad's head is actually smaller than mine... or the lack of hair is giving him a smaller fit.
Well just something to keep in mind.
Delivery and packing of this hat was very professional and well done. I would totally buy from these guys again.
