Another Great Hat
This is my third Tilley hat over about 20 years, but the light weight & shape of this model were exactly what I was looking for. When it arrived, I wasn't disappointed.
I've not worn it out yet, but its functionality is as per my others - i.e. once you have the two cords in place it's not leaving your head for anything. My wife has this model & between us we've worn them canoeing, sailing yachts & dinghies, on lifeboats, RIBs, pleasure boats, & climbing mountains. They are the business.
Some reviewers comment that some current models are made in China, not Canada. Well, I have two Canadians & now my wife and I have Chinese ones & I can't see this as a problem - my wife's is as good as my others.
You do need to be aware how they fit, so watch the Tilley video. Once you know that you'll get your size right.
The acid test for my new purchase will be when we go to Australia later this year (which is why I bought it) where I will now be as smart as my wife. XD
