"Really enjoyed wearing this quality cap. It's unique, great fit and feel. As I write it's Dimmer now, however, when the weather turns I'll look forward to wearing it again. Worth every penny. Thank you"

"Just what Inwas looking for the spring. Light weight. Fits great."
— John C. (5/5)
"This beanie is of great quality; it is beautifully manufactured with superior materials. However it is too large, and wears lower than expected. The bottom of the beanie, the “fold” part is very thin, and when folded it just doesn’t show there’s a fold - it sits flat and flush on the beanie itself and that takes away from the docker look. In that regard it is closer to a Kufi hat, a religious headwear from the Islamic world. As a constant hat wearing baldie, I had high hopes for a cotton beanie but this one just needs some tweaks and product development."
— Noyan K. (3/5)
"Fits well & looks good"
— T C. (5/5)
"Love the hat, fits exactly the way i expected. Nice and thin/ not too bulky. If there was one negative, it would be the stitching at the peak of the hat, which is a little loose and opens too much."
— Richard K. (4/5)
"This is a wonderful beanie. Well made and comfortable. Perfect size without being too big. Fits my head snuggly and is flattering. Keeps my bald head warm on chilly days!"
— Scott T. (5/5)
"I love it"
— Luis (5/5)
"I was certainly skeptical whether this hat would be what I was looking for and fit the way I wanted it to, but this cap is perfection! I love it! I have a smallish sized head and this sits just above my ears - perfect! Now I need to get a wool one!"
— Robert S. (5/5)
"Love this, so good hat."
— Peter E. (5/5)
"Lovely cap. Beautiful feel"
— Claire R. (5/5)
