That is the exact hat that I have. There are instructions on the site as to how you measure for size. I followed them to the letter kinda and came in between 2 sizes and thought I should go with the larger size.... - being the anal creature that I am, I e-mailed and they confirmed go with the larger. They have a neat strap system that allows you to strap from the front or back if needed. It works as stated - I have made use of it on several occasions while out birding. You can also dress it up with hatbands if you like.

Yeah, the first tilley I ordered was just a tad tight so I sent it back and ordered one size larger.

This one seems to be what you are looking for though.

Ooh. A Tilley looks like a better choice for my intended (immediate) use, but I really like the look of that last one.

But the first one screams, "Get off my Lawn!". That has to be a value add.

I thought it would be a good idea to get a hat to keep the sun off my head and remembered this old thread.

Was looking at either a Tilley or a few Outdooor Research models on Amazon, when Joyce encouraged me to stop into an EMS store to see if they had any at all. They had all of them, in the colors I was looking at and the right sizes.... at 30% off.

I'm now officially a Tilley Guy, though I've never been a hat-wearer in my life!

I've been wearing my Tilley a lot this summer. I like it, although it's still relatively warm to be wearing a hat in my shed in 90°+ weather...
