Irish Linen Newsboy Hat, Slim Fit Flat Cap for Men, Lightweight, Ivy, Scally, Gatsby, Cabbie Style, Imported from Ireland

The cap is great, or would be, but this cap is made from linen, which is more susceptible to damage than other materials. Amazon shipped mine in a flimsy thin plastic envelope and one side of the cap was severely creased. Repeated daily steaming over a week has not removed these creases and it does not look good at this point. The primary seller ships these caps in protective boxes, and I would recommend buying this linen cap directly from them as it's not a cheap cap and does require some care. As I said, it's a great cap, but highly susceptible to damage the way Amazon packages it for shipment. Beware!

For the price I expected a little better quality. It’s a linen cap , which is lite anyway , but it seemed a bit cheap. The head band inside the cap doesn’t sit flat to the forehead , but curves inward. It’s a bit uncomfortable due to that issue. That causes the brim of the cap edge to dig into your forehead. The only section of the headband that sits flat is at the back half ,& a few inches at the very front.

Needed a lightweight summer cap for an upcoming trip to the UK. I've previously purchased Hanly tweed caps and cashmere scarves from the manufacturer in Ballyartella. It turns out their linen flatcaps are made for import by Biddy Murphy, and not available directly from Hanly. Very pleased to find them here on Amazon. Ordered my usual size, fits comfortably, not tight, perfect.

I own many hats. Cowboy hats to top hats to caps. This thing is light weight, breathes really well and most of the time I forget that I even have it on!

Super-lightweight, lined in a very fine woven white cotton. Head band is white satin. The color may be a bit lighter than pictured, with the texture expected from linen. Beautiful construction...perfect for summer. Sits on the head with a sleek and modern look, and carries the vibe of an fine accessory.

I’ve worn a lot of hats over the years and this is by far the best in terms of quality. A++

Husband loves hat so much, he bought one for his brother. It lives up to it's claims in the ad.

My husband wanted an Irish linen hat for his birthday. I found Biddy Murphy and they had what I wanted. The hat is well constructed, true to color and looks fabulous on him. If he needs a winter Irish hat I know where to go.
