Surprisingly quickly the parcel from England was there: Sturdy cardboard, around the hat a bubble wrap - but unfortunately nothing below the brim, so they scraped unprotected on the carton. Fortunately, that has the hat did not mind. The Fino Quality is visible on his head, the hat feels good.
As with handmade products quite possible the hat (a really fast been emitted from the friendly and courteous seller to request copy a number was smaller, unfortunately a bit too small) was something big after you have correctly ordered size, so I had to help in the sweatband with two cork strips , Unfortunately, these were not in the delivery, but this is less attributable to the hat, but rather the seller.
The hat itself has only two minor weaknesses:
1. The recessed grip. In other instances the trough from the inside is reinforced with plastic, what is the shelf life benefit. Since I still have no long-term experience with this version "without" and some, this variant may even prefer (no plastic, lighter hat, a little more ventilation area), I regard not as a negative, but run it only for completeness on.
2. The sweatband. With not quite double the finger width cork strips fit just make pure, the white box provided for the size specification is not labeled, and when we're on the bleating: Especially with a summer hat I would have liked a moisture-absorbing material instead of the hard substance.
But that's whining at a high level. The price-performance ratio - especially in fair trade.
How proposes the hat under the Spanish sun, I'll try the upcoming holidays and late filing here.
