Another thing about the Tilley Hats that have the double head strap system that I really like, which is different when wearing a hat without this feature, is the wind keeps messing with it, tugging at it, and you tend to tense your facial and neck muscles to try and compensate for that...but with the this sort of very secure double strap system you can relax those muscles and it makes for a more comfortable, and less worrisome experience in the wind. It might sound like a silly thing to mention, but if your outdoors all day in the wind with such a hat, in contrast to hats without any sort of chin straps(s), you relax the way you hold your head and neck and that really is nice and you enjoy your experiences more.

Hey I have a question about the T3 and the size. Have a head circumference of 61.5cm, the Tilly T3 in size 73/4 (61.5cm) does not fit as tightly and well. The hat should sit very loosely, I tried 7 7/8 and this fit loosely but it also looks bigger, which size would you recommend? With the 61.5cm I can put both fingers between the forehead and the hat if I pull it slightly forward. With the bigger one it is only possible to pull, on your side I am also recommended 61.5 for 61.5 handling. A matter of taste? Thanks in advance

You can still get an Airflo "mash-up" hat that's made with recycled yarn, they actually look really nice, and they're still made in Canada. Sucks for me as the iconic LTM5 might have been a purchase I would have considered in the future, now I'll have to really think on that. Luckily a bunch of their other hats are still made on Gervais Ave in North York... I have the T3 Wanderer and the TTW2 Tec-Wool winter hat, they're both still made in Canada. Really unfortunate and kind of a bummer. Funny, if you literally google "Tilley made in china" there's a Globe & Mail article/interview with Alex Tilley where he states his negative opinion on overseas manufacturing. I mean, I'm bummed out that they're not 100% made in Canada anymore but if a life-long Tilley wearer were to compare a Canadian-made Airflo and a Chinese-made Airflo and not be able to tell the difference, there's still that?

TFlorida1 Not washing the hat is kind of dumb, plus it’s pretty disgusting to not wash a hat after owning/wearing it for a few years. All that sweat and dirt accumulated in your hat just reduces the longevity of the hat. As the Tillley website states, if you don’t wash it the hat won’t last as long. I own a Tilley LTM6 hat and wear it for my work outside in Florida. I’ve had it for 5 years and wash it quickly by hand often and hang it to dry. The hat works great and it is worth the money. Before buying this hat I’d be buying a new hat every year due to wear and tear. Tilley hats are worth the price and are exceptionally well made.
