it is a very difficult color to describe ... it is grey ... it is taupe ... it is beautiful

the most accurate photo of the color is probably the first picture of the underside

Great hat! Could you please provide circumference of sweatband in inches as well as long axis and short axis of opening? This will give a better idea of fit since vintage hats seem to vary size-wise. Thanks!

I won't be home for about 5 hours ... I can do those measurements then

it is a true 7 3/8 ... so if 7 3/8 hats fit you then this will as well

Thanks! I really need those measurements. Some vintage 7 3/8 lids fit me perfectly and others are too tight.
