Best Hat I own! High quality material and a great message. I have ran over 100 miles in it with no sweat strains. Definitely would recommend to any other endurance athletes out there who want a great hat that help you push yourself.

I really wanted this to work for me. 5 years ago I got a custom fitted devise (exactly the same idea as this product) from Kaiser Permanente and it definitely worked and was of very high quality plastic (unlike this one). The screws were metal inserts but three problem is that it would crack and I went through three of them in 5 years. Each cost $500! Not good. So when I saw.

The only drawback that I have with it was the creating a good fit process, which took 4 or more times before it fit correctly, after drying out for 24 hours or longer, which should be a part of the So when I saw.
