Appears to be a quality product. Happy with wider brim. The medium 57 as measured is a bit oversized but adjusting the interior band and using fillers gives a comfortable fit. Fitted a chinstrap from another company.

Seems to be a nice solid hat with a nice stiff brim..
I did have a sizing issue as I’m a 59 & originally ordered large to suit, however it was way too big.
Very easy return & exchange process for a medium which fits me perfectly..
I was also impressed with the way the hat came (both times) securely packed in a large box, so it wouldn’t get misshapen in transit. I’ve had other half decent hat brands send them crushed in a postal bag..
As I plan on this hat being my official “Bush hat” & it will be beaten around in all sorts of conditions, I gave it 3 separate coats of high quality silicon waterproofing & protection spray.. I’ve also changed out the thin leather band for a 6 braid kangaroo leather band, just as a matter of personal taste.
Haven’t tried it in the field yet, but it looks like it will hold up quite well… Also, great price (got mine on sale) as I was close to dropping $300+ on an Akubra.

This is the second hat I have purchased from Will and Bear. I got this gorgeous hat for our daughter’s birthday and she loves it. We had an issue with delivery and was delighted with their customer service and easy engagement. Would highly recommend this company for their quality product and excellent customer service.

This hat had the qualities, look, and price that I was looking for. Although, I am particular of its metal eyelets. They can get hot to the touch and I believe a pair of simple sewn holes would have given it a more atavistic look along with the top leather strap’s metal button holder. A little wooden pin, string tie or bone clasp would, again, give the hat a more hand-made feel. Nonetheless, I love this thing!
