So light and bright!
I ordered the visor because no matter what style or how light, hats make me very very hot. This visor is extremely lightweight and I don't overheat with it. It's also very good at keeping the sweat and sun out of my eyes! I love the bright neon green, too.... It makes it harder to lose!

Great brim, doesn't stay tight
Very lightweight and well made, and it's nice that there's no Velcro. But the band material slips through the adjuster, so I can't get a nice tight fit around my silky hair. I ended up sewing the adjusted band in place so it can't slip. Of course now I have a rather long tail that I may or may not cut off as I saw another reviewer complained about

Exactly what I was looking for
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was looking for a visor that wouldn't leave a big dent in my forehead after wearing it for three minutes. For some reason that's a problem for me. I also wanted one that was easily adjustable. I love my OR cap, so I figured I'd give their visor a try. Great choice! This visor fits well, is easy to adjust without having to take it off, and doesn't leave (too much of) a dent in my forehead unless I really lock it down on a windy day. I have a small head, so the adjustment ribbon was a bit long, but I just cut the off excess and melted the end with a flame so it wouldn't fray. When this one wears out, I'll definitely be back for another one.
