I purchased this item new, but there was a stain on the back of the brim from the beginning. It doesn't fit my head, so I'm listing it for sale immediately after buying it. Although it was listed as new, it feels like it has been used a bit... I haven't used it myself, so I'm still considering it as unused, but please understand that it is a purchase from another person. When shipping, I will fold the brim, so please be aware of that.
