I bought it as a gift to myself.
It is very soft and nice and doesn't take much place when storing it.
I'm planning to use it to warm my self over a summery dress at a coming wedding.
This leather hat is incredibly well-made, fits perfectly (love that I had a choice of sizes!), and looks fantastic! It keeps my head covered stylishly while I sit at countless outdoor events watching my grandchildren...sun off my face, wind not freezing my head. I want another one in blue, please!
