I bought this hat based on the other reviews and wasn't disappointed. Very light and folds up nicely, thank you. Sizes do seem to run large. I wear a 7 5/8+ baseball cap and this hat in XL went down to my ears. Exchanged for a large. The tan color is cool but what's up with the creamsicle orange.

Good design but be prepared

Not sure on the durability yet, but quality design. Bill keeps shape even though it folds. Be prepared to have people ask why you are wearing a conductor's cap even though it is a cadet cap. Style is lost on some.

This is the second OR radar cap I have purchased (the other while on vacation). I liked the light weight, the portability (brim folds to fit in a pants pocket) and the style so much I wanted another! Although the brim is not long, it still provides as much protection from the sun as any other ball type cap at half the weight and is more breathable. The cloth dries easily and quickly and cleans up easily as well. It has become my "every day" hat. The price was relativly low for this type of hat as well.
