BEST HAT EVER!!!

I will never be buying another hat brand again. This hat is perfect, the front, above the bill, is soft and not stiff, fits perfectly and looks amazing.
I bought the Terra notch and fits my sunglasses perfectly, you might have to play with it a little at first to get it just right. No button on top which I love, that way if you do bump your head there isn’t a button to dig into your head.
I will be buying a few more of these hats in the coming months and will advertise to everyone I meet about just how amazing these hats are.
One thing to note, at least on the mesh back style hat, it is a little scratchy around the ears.

However, there is an easy fix, just take a lighter and burn the scratchy plastic mesh where your ears normally sit and flatten once it’s hot and melting. If you ever mess is paracord it’s pretty similar to that.

My 5th Notch hat.

I've got 5! Some for winter and some for summer. These trucker hats are perfect for summer and for the gym.

Disappointed

Man I had high hopes for Notch. I have the Terra and Standard Notch hats. I bought both because I heard good things and since I wear prescription glasses and sunglasses I wanted these because other hats just don't sit right. I was extremely disappointed when I tried my hats on with my glasses and the notches weren't even close to lining up with my glasses. I just wasted money. It's great that these hats works for others but in my experience, NO GOOD. I'll have to go back to wearing contacts. I'm not going to discourage anyone from making a purchase, I believe Notch is a good company that has a good product. They just don't work for me.

Hi Jason! I'm sorry to hear that you're disappointed with your new hats!

To help the notches and glasses work properly please try tucking the part of the notch insert that's closest to your face in behind the arms of your glasses to 'lock' them in. Our Perfect Fit Guide has more information on this.

We have positioned our cutouts to work for as many glasses as possible, but there are some glasses that may not work as-is. If the cutouts aren't quite in the correct spot for your particular glasses we can custom notch our hats by moving the cutout forward or backward. Please email us for more info on Custom Notched hats.
