Not quite what was promised

By Jerry Kessler Ranked #182 - Baseball Caps June 29, 2009

I've had my eye on this hat for some time so when one in my size came up, I immediately ordered it. Good news, bad news. I like the style, the fit and the looks and the incredibley good service. However, one of the reasons I wanted this particular hat was it was made of wool(see description). When it arrived and I checked the label, low and behold, its construction was stated as 15% wool, 83% accrylic and 2% spandex. That's not exactly what I would call a wool hat. I am a little disappointed in backcountry.com about that. However, that said, I like everything else about it and I really don't want to quibble, although I guess I am. I wanted wool to ski in on relatively warm days when I needed something light but water resistant. I think the combination of materials in the hat should do it, maybe even better that pure wool. Still? What say you?
