Product Reviews

This waxed cotton hat offers excellent waterproof protection and features a wide brim that effectively keeps rain and sun off. Customers praised its "great quality" and stylish appearance. However, sizing runs inconsistent - some found it too small while others noted it runs large. Most appreciated the comfortable fit and value for money, though a few reported quality control issues with interior stitching.

  • Love love love! Water proof & comfy.

  • Fits perfectly, looks stylish and does the job when it rains.

It's slightly too big aand I've had to use reducing liners as I think the next size down (L) would be too small if true to size. A reasonably minor issue when the quality of the hat is so good

Very nice hat. I have several Tilley's, but this is as good but much much cheaper and very well made. Great service, quick delivery, quicker than expected, and good returns policy.

Its a lovely quality hat with a wide brim to keep the sun from your face. It can also be dressed up and down easily. It also stays in place well except for in really gusty conditions. However, the sizing did come up larger than expected.

The Hoggs of Fife Caledonia Waxed Hat in Olive is a fantastic addition to my outdoor gear. The waxed cotton material provides excellent water resistance, keeping my head dry even in heavy rain. The hat is well-constructed, with a comfortable fit and a classic design that looks great with any outdoor outfit. Its lightweight yet durable, and the wide brim offers good protection from both rain and sun. The olive color gives it a timeless, rugged look. Overall, it's a high-quality hat that combines practicality and style perfectly ‚ highly recommended for anyone who spends time outdoors!

Whilst I was delighted with the service from New Forrest Clothing, I was disappointed with the quality of the Hoggs of Fife hat.

I have had a number of Hoggs of Fife products which have been first class. Sadly, the quality control in respect of the hat was lacking. The seem at the inside of the rear of the hat has been finished off very badly and has been left with a seem which is extremely proud, resulting in a painful ridge inside the hat on the back of the head.

Fortunately, the hat was a little large and i purchased some fillers for inside the inner sweat band which made it less uncomfortable.

I had previously received a size L hat of the same design and make which did not have this issue but was on the tight side and was returned.

I would be delighted if this review could be passed onto Hoggs of Fife to alert them to the issue as at the price, I don't feel this product should have been put on sale.

Cheers

Iain

Very sturdy and stiff waxed fabric, feels warm enough. It is a bit low in terms of length, but that means it doesn't slip onto your forehead or eyebrows.

The sizing seems on the small side. I'm a woman and usually all small hats are too large on me, but this one seemed too tight. I know it has to stay on your head, but was just too tight for me. I ordered a medium to see if that might be the right size.

Limited in sizes but a rugged hat for rain.

Like the hat. More rugged material than many of similar appearance and the material seems up to the job of keeping the rain out. Would have pteferred a 56cm had it been available instead of 55cm purchased. The next size up would have been too large at 57cm. Settled for a tight fit to keep rain off and prevent wind from taking it away.

Looks good, fits perfectly, colour

Looks good, fits perfectly, colour good and it has had a baptism of fire, so to speak, as shortly after receiving my waxed hat, we had the heaviest rain we've had for some while and it kept my head completely dry. Exactly what I was looking for in a hat and well worth the money.

Brilliant hat

This hat is stylish, good fit and looks great. It is great worn with my exec rain coat. It could do with a chin strap though.
The brim is nice and wide. Overall the design is excellent.
