Ohvall's Review of MIL-TEC M43 Moleskin Mountain Cap
First, the good:
1) The hat arrived on time and in brand new condition.
2) According to the tag, it really is 100% cotton.
2) The black color is... black. I don't know yet if it will fade with time and wear.
Now, the not-so-good:
1) The fabric does not feel as soft and dense as moleskin should be. It's more like a poplin.
2) Size XL means European size 61, which is at the lower end of the XL range. I usually wear an American size 7 3/4 and this hat just barely fits. Because it's 100% cotton, I expect it to shrink a bit the first time it gets wet and then it won't fit at all. Order one size larger than usual and you should be OK.
3) The flaps that are buttoned above the bill aren’t good for much when folded down. They're don't fit well buttoned under the chin and they hang awkwardly if left unbuttoned.
