KBETHOS Cadet Army Cap Basic Everyday Military Style Hat (Now with STASH Pocket Version Available)

Love this hat . Good quality and fits great. Will continue to replace with same as needed. Good old cotton fabric holds up to many washings. Would recommend this hat

Great hat, runs a little big

The hat is comfortable, fits well, and I really liked the design. However, after the first wash, I noticed the color changed slightly. It’s still functional for everyday use, but the color durability could be better.

Fits well, looks on pictured

This hat fits perfectly, I ordered a medium. I would definitely order it in other colors. I love the pocket on the side!

Even though the pictures looked decent, I was skeptical about these hats, especially in light of their low price. I knew from the KB Ethos website, which shows a 360 degree view, that this was more of a standard issue, military uniform BDU hat. Most stylized cadet/military caps are designed with a symmetrical middle panel wrapping around from the forehead, to the back of the head. The middle panel of this hat is the same width from the forehead to the sides, but slopes downward to the back of the neck. This difference means that the bill can be shiflted higher on the forehead without the sides hitting or pushing out on the ears. This hat is made of 100% pure cotton and is a bit thinner than some hats on the market, making it a great fit for the summer. The brim also extends out longer than some cadet/military caps and is more like that of a traditional ball cap. The hat is fitted, but seems to have a bit more stretch to it than other non flex-fit caps, probably due to the thinner material. I have a medium sized head and really should have ordered a medium and not a large, but I quickly remedied the oversized st bye soaking the Hat is hot water and putting it in the dryer for short time. If you find yourself needing to do the same I would recommend drying it hungover him or something that will hold its shape. Again this is 100 percent cotton and prone to wrinkling, due to the thinner material. All in all I am pretty impressed with this hat for the price, having bought hats from Kangol, Goorin Bros and Timberland, for 4 times the amount. My only real criticism of this hat so far, is on the brim. It seems that either the visor piece inside the brim is a bit too small to fill the space, or that the brim section is a bit too loosely sewn around the brim insert. I am hoping that I may be able to tighten the brim through further shrinking the hat. This may never be my go-to hat, but definitely a good grab on the go. Love the color choices too. Enjoy!

This is a GOOD hat. The fabric weight is sturdy, the stitching and construction excellent. It's hard to find a cap large enough to fit all my hair, this one is perfect, looks nice and reasonable cost. It took a bit to get here, but was absolutely worth the wait. Thanks.

I wanted to try something different than just another ball cap, but I am pretty conservative and not very flashy when it comes to my clothing. I know a cadet cap is not really pushing the envelope but for me it is a deviation from 'normal'. I ordered the timberland color and it is a good looking hat, it is something just a little different and I feel comfortable wearing it. In spite of the reviews that have been posted detailing the circumference of the different sizes I have what is generally considered a pumpkin head and I ordered the XL size. Haha, true to the reviews it is a very generously sized XL and is pretty loose. A strong gust of wind will probably blow it off my head. My bad on ordering the XL instead of the L. I am keeping the hat and will see how much it will shrink by washing/drying it. If it is still loose I will wear it with a sweat band when I am working around the house. If I decide to order another one I will get the large. Edit here..... I know I have barely worn the cap, but I like it and if I don't post this now I never will. When I use a carpenters tape measure my head is 23 3/8" circumference. Hope this may help someone else pick the right size. I washed and dried the brand new cap (warm water/high heat dry) and it shrank to a perfect fit. It held up pretty well to the washing, just a little wrinkled. I have been wearing it while working in the garage and it absorbs sweat very well. The hat is roomy and very comfortable. Hoping to prevent sweat stains I just threw it back in the washer (cold water) and will probably let it air dry this time.. Since I know how I treat my ball caps and this one does shrink when its washed/dried I will stick with the XL when I order more of these. If I was a person that just worn a hat as an accessory I would try the large size.
