    Cool! Looks like a good fit too. How are they sized--S,M,L... or by actual hat size?

    They're sized S, M, L, etc... but you find your corresponding size based off of your hat size; for instance, I wear 7 1/8, which is a Medium.

    Beautiful cap.
    Personally I dislike the S M L XL sizing, as I am a 7 1/2, which puts me on the line between two sizes. Then the hat is either a little too small or a little too large, depending on how they translate the measurements.

    For some reason I've never warmed to the whole matching tartan hat & kilt thing - but then it is IOS...

    I've had 5 (yes, I counted!) compliments on this cap tonight! Went out to the video store, then the bookstore, and between the 2 acquired said compliments.

    I have 3 flatcaps, the IOS, a Dress Gordon tartan, and the USMC Leatherneck tartan; every time I wear them, folks are quite complimentary towards them. Very cool.

    I like it!

    Thanks! Picked it up from Tartan Time. Shipping was rather quick; on 11/19 I received my invoice and was told it was shipping that day, and found it in the mail today. I wonder if it would have been here even earlier barring Thanksgiving.
