One of the comments suggest that the brim tends to be rather floppy. Would you agree with this assertion?

I would describe the brim as 'flexible' rather than 'floppy'. One can shape the brim to some extent... i.e., tilted down in front and tilted up in back.The brim will not flop down around your ears.

no, I don't find it floppy. I hike and ride my comfort bike in the wind with this hat. I have a small head (size 7), so perhaps its a smaller profile. Make sure you get the right size..... "One size fits all" hats are usually floppy.

I don't find the brim to be floppy. The hat is packable, and isn't stiff, but it's not floppy. It's just right....

I found the hat to be great! Neither my husband nor I, thought the brim was at all floppy and we continue to happily wear our Tilley hat.

It does not stand erect like the picture shows. It is very soft. So I would say it is more to the floppy side.

The brim does blow upwards in a strong wind. But it usually return to its shape. This hat continues to amaze me and proved its effectiveness during our NY heat wave!

Yes! I had this concern prior to purchasing this hat and much to my suprise it fit really well, it will loosen up a little after wearing for a little while.

I would say yes -- because I happen to have a really big noggin. If you have a head the size of Charlie Brown's or Frankenstein's monster -- or SpongeBob, you might have an issue. But the TYR cap is stretchy and has a lot of "give" to it.

They do adjust outwards for larger heads, but even at their smallest I find them to be slightly too big. (I have a small head, too.)

No. I went and checked it again when I saw this question. It is quite the opposite. Seems very firmly put together.

I would say if it is flopping - you might want to try some silicone or perhaps even just glue (and set in a position that works for you, since moving the head would be limited or not an option at that point).. if all else fails.. I would grab another one.. perhaps just a defect or overuse? -- have had ours for years with no issue - love it.

I don't wear glasses but I would assume so as they aren't too firm around the head and have lots of padding.

It is flexible but retains its shape. The brim is not all that wide. I saw several at Academy for sports& Outdoors at a good price and you can actually see them. If one is near you, have a look before you order....some have a net at the top so it is nice and cool and some just have eyelets which is not as cool.

yes. I agree, their product description leaves something to be desired. The head has the whole shebang. I think the 'letter' difference refers to the color.

Yes the brim is semi rigid. Not as rigid as a ball cap but you can form the brim. Hope this helps

I happen to live in Hawaii, so don't know if it is the heat and humidity that helps to go back to default shape. I have a smaller brim hat that I have used for travel for several years. I have this hat hanging up right now unrolled just in the circle with velcro and it seems to have gone into the correct shape by itself. Maybe a light spray of water to soften and then shape? Sorry no real answer.

Yes... in cooler climates it is ideal. It is a heavy duty hat, therefore might not be a cool as other hats.

i think it may be a bit small for that. i'm an adult and my head measures just over 22. the hat has a bit of room on my head. it is also made of fairly stiff material.

Hi Richard! They revolve independently. I have to add that I am absolutely happy with the hat rack. It is very stable, I never feel like I have to steady it when I rotate it. I just put my hand gently on the crown of a hat on the same ring and push. I even have one really broad sun hat and it does not interfere with the movement. Brilliant!

I would say yes although it may be a little contrary with the particles making it difficult to open and close in time.
