Great Hat!,
February 11, 2013
By: NorthernBoy
"Perfect fit and warm and snug - the ear tabs work perfectly if the conditions are extreme. Well constructed with soft leather that has a worn in feel to it. This hat will last me a lifetime!"

Nice material, but poor quality control!,
December 28, 2012
By: Mountainhome
"I ordered the shearling ball cap from Orvis based on the great reviews other people posted. Unfortunately I didn't have that experience. When I received my ball cap I instantly liked the quality and feel of the shearling and thought it would stand up great to cold Montana winters. I tried it on and was disappointed that it was too large even though I used the size chart to make the appropriate selection. I reasoned that I'd be able to use some type of internal hat band to make it fit better so not a big deal. What did disappoint me, however, was that one of the snaps which holds the ear flap in place was broken and fell off in my hand before I could even try to work the snap. Also, there were several unsightly silver markings on the leather of my hat. Fortunately I was able to remove the majority of the marks with a damp cloth. I plan to use this product and imagine it will still work well for its intended purpose. However, because of these problems with the quality of the item and the premium price that I payed, I'd be very apprehensive to recommend it to another."

Great Gift!,
December 17, 2012
By: EmpireStef
"I gave this hat as a birthday gift to my boyfriend - at the end of November - although we haven't had many cold days yet (still first half of Dec.), he loves the style of the hat, and the large fits great as the sizing chart indicated it would."

Great style and fit!,
December 30, 2011
By: Corvuscorvax
from Atlanta, GA
"Wearing it as I write! Very comfortable in 30's - 50's temps. Haven't tried ear flaps yet, but guess they would be good for even colder temps. I wear 7 3/8 (59) and the large fits perfectly. Comfortable to wear all day. Great fit and finish. Have received may compliments. Definitely worthy of the Orvis brand!"

"I picked this out as a birthday gift at my wife's invitation.
She is almost getting tired of my repeating it is one of greatest gifts I have ever had, certainly the greatest head cover I've owned.
With thinning hair, I now have the warmest head in the coldest weather. This is one spectacular cap!"

Shearling Winter Ball Cap,
December 21, 2011
By: jbconroy
"Cap is warm, but a bit large in the XL
also, if the ear flaps are dropped they do not stay near the ears but flar outward. @ 129 it is a bit pricy

The weather outside is frightful...,
December 20, 2011
By: riddler
from Baker,Nv. (Great Basin National Park)
"The cap is retro in looks,well- made and warm, not itchy. Haven't worn it in cold weather(below 0) but will this winter. Only complaint is that the hat runs a little on the large side as far as sizing goes. I like the short bill, it protects from the sun without obstructing the vision. I'm sure it will become my favorite winter cap. The sun never sets on the cool."

"Nearly did'nt buy due to the price. Since I received it a few weeks ago ,however it has never been off my head . The ear flaps keep you warm even in the highest winds.
One of the best quality buys I have made this year.

"From the very first moment I held this shearling cap in my hands I knew it would be warm and comfortable. It slips like a glove onto your head and does what you'd expect of it in all respects. If I didn't have one I'd get another."

"This is a wonderfully warm and cozy hat, with unique head-turning good looks. It seems well-designed and well-constructed. The shearling fur is authentic, good quality, soft and toasty and extends throughout the entire inside of the hat.. The brim is handy on a sunny day and also seems quite sturdy. The strap on the front is purely ornamental (I suppose you could use it to hold your press badge), but adds a whimsical flair. I bought two for my friends, they liked mine so much. Not a bad value, given the price and functionality of good shearling. Attractive on both men & women."

"This is a good looking and warm hat at a good price for the quality. The only addition that I would like to see is a leather strap that goes over the top of the cap fastened to the snaps which could be swung underneath the chin to secure the ear flaps better against the ears when worn down. This would make the ears warmer in very cold conditions.Thanks Orvis for providing quality at a good price!"
