Snug.

Covers all your ear and most of your rear neck - certainly everything above a typical cycling jersey collar.

Nice little peak that flips easily.

Very well put together.

And really too hot after 2 minutes in the temperature we have today !

right so.....I've just posted 32 parcels so they will be winging their way to anyone who has paid for postage. You should have them by Wednesday.....

Thanks all

EDIT: I'll post details about a small surplus that I hope to have after the event and a charity that I propose to give it to.....

Recieved the hat from the man himself a few minutes ago (so a cold head can't be used as an excuse now). A pleasure to deal with, thanks TheBlaaMan.

My Rapha Hat has been received in Kerry!

Lovely and Cosy so it is. Funkier than the image I saw, imo. I really like it and will be ideal over the Winter months.

Thanks again TheBlaaMan. Appreciate it

Just when I'd resigned myself to the hat never appearing...SHAZAM, An Post drop it through my door. Many, many thanks to TheBlaaMan for putting this together.

And it raises the question: are there other items (not necessarily Rapha) that as a community we might adopt a similar approach with?
