StetsonProf, Color: Black (TWPROF-102007)

Very stylish

Just got the Stetson Reward hat and I am very pleased with my purchase. For under 35.00 (January 2015) it is an appropriate first hat for those thinking about buying a Panama hat. So first and foremost, this is not a Panama hat. This is a Shantung hat which is different.The fit of the hat is good, but just a tad bit large. I am a 7 1/4 hat size and knowing that Stetson hats run a bit large, I got the medium. It fits very well, but I could have probably gotten away with a large which would have been a bit loose. The look of the hat is exactly as pictured and looks pretty smart in casual clothes. My intent with this hat purchase is to see if I like the style and look of it and then purchase a much higher cost Brent Black made Panama hat in time for the summer.So in summary, if you are looking for a super high quality hat, this is not what you are looking for. If you are looking for an inexpensive, good looking hat for daily wear or to see if you want to get into the Panama hat scene, this is a great purchase.

I wear a hat whenever I am outside. Especially in the summer. This hat was perfect. Cool, stylish, and great fit. Even in a brisk wind, the hat stays put. After multiple 95F days with 85% humidity it did get sweaty, as you would expect. I'm not sure how to clean the minor sweat stains. The material seems pretty flimsy. Maybe I have to buy one every year?

I needed a new hat for our vacation to Florida. I am trying to look good enough to stand next to my beautiful wife and look like I belong there. This hat certainly helps. It was a little too large, even for my big head. Thankfully, they included some sizing padding. A couple of short pieces in the front and back, inside the headband and now it's a perfect fit. It looks great and will certainly keep the sun off my head. Great purchase. Five stars.

It has both a tight weave, and is still soft enough to be very comfortable. The quality I’ve come to expect from Stetson. Also, the seller took care to package the hat in a cardboard box, which was big enough to keep the hat from being crushed. I’m really grateful for that.

I was going to wear this to my daughter’s wedding this weekend but it arrived smashed in the box. Not acceptable.

I purchased this Panama style hat by Stetson recently. It is all that a Panama hat should be: white, light, stylish, and the price was very good at about $47.00. I bought it having just left a neat hat store in San Antonio and was looking at Panama replacements or cleaning and reblocking. They wanted $67 for the cleaning and blocking service. That is probably a deal with a wool hat that needed that service. So, I checked Amazon and found this hat through this company. I looked at their stock they have the top name brands for men's hats at what looked like good prices with many styles, colors and materials. Their choices and prices look good relative to the many other hats I've purchased at retail stores in several different states.

If this is a Stetson then I'm the Pope. I own other Stetsons and the quality is definitely more durable. This is best movie prop quality though it does look nice just don't be too rough with it. Look elsewhere.

I wanted a Fedora, I have a Christie's which is good quality and double the price. I like the Stetson material. I bought one from the USA (because these had run out of stock) that looked similar. It cost me £65 in postage. Meant to be a Fedora but looked too 'cowboyish', the dome in the middle too high. This one however is perfect. I'd love to be able to try these hats on before buying.....
