So my boyfriend works mostly outside installing HVAC units and such, and wears a hat every single day to keep the sun and his hair out of his eyes. He has been wearing the same gross and smelly hat for almost three months and it is beyond a deep condition, but he is so picky and hates for the rim to touch his ears. BUT THIS HAT IS PERFECT. He loves it and I am so happy that I get to throw out the old hat, and order more!
