The first sight confused me ...

The pirate looks at the photo look different than you expect. By wires in the Ränden can turn his hat in all directions. Is not necessarily great. Therefore, the first sight made me a bit confused when I had a clew in hand I had to turn handle.
On the side silver push buttons you can see and also can not cover. The hat is made of normal fabric and has no right hat texture as one would normally imagine.
Conclusion: For a panel to a party hat is sufficient and okay for the price. once you've straightened out him he looks real cool (except for the push-buttons)

For people who buy the hat for a LARP I would advise against looking better and qualitatively. I've just expected something else and can not use the hat for my costume.
