I ordered 4 (2 Panizza & 2 Barbisio) of these and they are all of great total quality. Mine all have brims around 2 inches and just under 5 inch crowns with some taper. I am pretty sure this is typical of most of the available hats. I like this style but the strict no taper, large brim, high crown types should stay clear (has nothing to do with quality). I will post some pictures in the future.
One major issue is that I got hit with a UPS $40.00 Custom's brokers fee. I didn't have to pay shipping so not as bad a hit. Probably if you are getting only one or two hats they might slip through. The problem is that US Customs is keying on hats because they are textiles. There is a $200.00 limit on imports of textiles. If you ever getting larger shipments from Europe make sure that the invoice total cost is less than $200.00 no matter the real price.
