Bob Mortimer has a very nice hat in that Going Fishing series. I forget where it’s from but I’ll try and remember later. You may be able to find it on google before I get a chance.

Stetson | Fairway Bucket Hat | Hats Unlimited

The Stetson Fairway Pork Pie is a classic example of the style. This hat features a 1.75" brim that can be rolled up to have an upturn, or folded downwards. The 4" crown is decorated with a blue and red striped cotton band at the base, and two wire mesh rivets on each side allow air flow. This...

There is a multi-coloured hat band with a Stetson hat pin attached on the side. The hat is unlined for a comfortable fit on a hot summer day.

Very similar. Both the hat design and the website

I've got two trilby type hats one blue, one straw coloured; one black bucket for fishing; a baker's boy; a No8Do Sevilla baseball hat; and my Yachtmaster baseball hat.

They're all good for different purposes. I mainly wear the baseball caps because of the peak size. They really help keep the sun out of my eyes.

Does anyone know what these hats are called? They have a big peak which can seemingly be worn jauntily without any regard to where the sun is coming from, but which might actually be useful if for example you're walking a winding path with the sun alternately behind or to one side of you.

I have an unusually large head and finally have a hat that fits properly :-

I thought they had floppy brims whereas these seem like hard peaks.

You may be right.

On another "sun hats for men" related matter - perhaps a campaign hat could work even while dressed very casually?

Campaign hats have excellent brimmage and a strap worn at the back so good in the wind too, but obviously they have state trooper and drill sergeant connotations, although surely there's no reason they couldn't be worn with e.g. t-shirt and jeans or whatever.

Are the squirrel epaulettes part of 'the look'?

I've had a genuine "the coppers are getting younger" moment with that bloke, he looks like a boy scout come along for a try-out.

I respect Jeremy Corbyn's Breton fisherman's cap as a sound choice, but I wouldn't trust myself to carry it off as a look until I'm a senior pensioner.

I will be forever unable to wear one because I'm actually hoping to live in Brittany and sail a small boat

I don't think they exist much. I've only ever seen one hat shop and that was in Walworth - Rimworld

I went to rimworld. They only had hats. I was left disappointed.

Hat ID help



I found it in a friend's garage and he says it was there when they moved in.
It says Outback on it on a little badge and was made in the USA.
What I really like about it is that the material is hard, it's not a floppy hat, if you frisbied it at someone's head like Oddjob you could do some damage.
It feels good to wear and I'd take it but this one is a medium and too small

Can anyone point me to something similar?
I'm not even sure what to search for
The stiffness is important to me

Thanks! I did look for some Oz hats but couldn't distinguish floppy ones from stiff ones

Waxed seems to be a key word

The triangular top is also what makes it

That's not a hat. This is a hat.
