This while hiking, but have been considering a switch to this.

A beanie in the fall because I look cute in it

[–] PonyOfWar@pawb.social 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I frequently wear a flatcap.

[–] bruhbeans@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 month ago

Does a bike helmet count? If it does, then that. Otherwise, warm beanie whenever it was last cold.

I think it was my sons pants to make him laugh.

What is the definition of "hat"? I had a spider in my hair not long ago

[–] jrubal1462@mander.xyz 4 points 1 month ago

...As was the fashion of the time.

Victorian style top hat

[–] june@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago

Baseball cap! Wearing it now actually. It has a mesh back and a gray front with my state's shape on it patterned with a rainbow 🌈

Strawhat in the Summer

[–] Maestro@fedia.io 2 points 1 month ago

Not sure. Either my 1890s mailman cap, my medieval nasal helmet or my cowboy hat.

[–] Carnelian@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Baseball cap! Been getting more into them lately after never really wearing hats. I started because a friend said they’re useful for hiking, but after getting compliments I started just wearing them in general as well.

[–] Sumocat@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Kangol flat cap, gray. I alternate between that and a beige flat cap with a closer fit, which is the one that got me into flat caps.

[–] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

wide brimmed bucket hat, for sun protection.

[–] Shdwdrgn@mander.xyz 2 points 1 month ago

Green felt top hat with a size tag stuck in the band. Oof that's been about 20 years ago now.

A light grey flat cap

This old thing - a Barmah Squashy hate, made from Kangaroo leather. I clearly don't regularly treat it with leather conditioner like they tell you to.

This hat is my constant companion whenever I go camping. We're literally tomorrow leaving for a three week trip through the Outback, so it's about to get a lot of use.

A Stetson straw wheat gambler hat. I have a lot of hats, but this one allows for maximum air flow.

Camo baseball cap. I only wore it to go dove hunting. Only other hat I wear is a beanie if it's cold.

[–] Vanth@reddthat.com 1 points 1 month ago

Ball cap while hiking. Not for the sun so much, more for the ticks to keep them out of my hair.

[–] DamienGramatacus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Military style cap, black, everytime I leave the house because I'm bald. Beanie in winter.

[–] iamtrashman1312@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

A band beanie, yesterday. I wear such a hat almost every day

[–] comfyquaker@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (2 children)

baseball cap yesterday while playing disc golf

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Why weren't you wearing a disc golf cap?

[–] comfyquaker@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

what constitutes for a disc golf cap? Honestly didn’t know a thing existed

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Well if there's a baseball cap and bowling shoes and tennis bracelets then there's surely some sort of attire unique to that activity

[–] Professorozone@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

OMG. I was playing today but I don't know what the hat is called. It has a brim and little holes for air. I guess it's kind of like a Safari hat.

[–] Dippy@beehaw.org 1 points 1 month ago

I wear a baseball style cap every day to protect my long hair during my day job in the HVAC industry. I stuff it up in there

[–] Eiri@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

Eh, bicycle helmet I guess?

[–] Gebruikersnaam@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 month ago

One of these a few weeks ago, because I went on a walk and it was really sunny outside!

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

Usually a ball cap of some variety, I have a couple.

It was probably my favorite, a custom one a friend got me that has "Mrs Lovett's meat pies" on it. Custom because my giant dome made the ones that were available from the show itself look ridiculous lol.

There's also a pride hat, a pirate hat with "surrender the booty" stitched in small print above the back band, a random ebay find with Bacchus on it, and one that's just plain black.

I've got a boonie hat that I use when it's raining, and a couple of dressier ones that look nice when I have to/should wear a suit.

After my hairline started receding and I got my first sunburn, me and hats became friends lol.

[–] CetaceanNeeded@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

An Akubra which I have had for about 18 years. It's like a cowboy hat but Australian and made from rabbit fur felt.

Quite a while ago, actually, maybe a month or so. It was a straw hat that I got from Italy.

[–] whotookkarl@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

United States Forest service baseball cap.

[–] 2ugly2live@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

If head wraps/scarves count, then that.

[–] boogetyboo@aussie.zone 1 points 1 month ago

Plain grey ball cap every time I step outdoors in anything less than smart casual. Slip slop slap and slide, kids.

I wear a cap every day

[–] EssentialNPC@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I wear a Tilley Airflo pretty much any time I am outside.

I need a wide broom to protect my eyes from the sun (early cataracts). I need a hat that is useful for outdoor fun but also looks good around town. I do not want to worry about rain or have a lot of upkeep.

I wash my Tilley in the machine. I get compliments everywhere I go. It works great on the trail, and looks great paired with a sport coat for a country-boy-on-the-town sort of look. I can't recommend that hat enough.

One of these cowboy hats:

(I want to add some metal spikes around it, making it a metal-goth-country hat)

[–] NineMileTower@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Last night. It was a Bass Pro Shops hat I wear in the yard or on walks. They go to shit real fast, but they are cheap as shit.

However, I have a rope brim hat I bought at Tootsie's in Nashville. That's my fancy hat.

[–] CaptSatelliteJack@lemy.lol 1 points 1 month ago

Today, I wore my Findlay Hats "Cozy," which is a gray natural fiber unstructured strapback. It was a limited release (48 pieces) that dropped in February of '22. To this day one of my favorite hats I've ever bought. Before that, it was my Chunky Chameleon, which was Hat of the Month from May of this year.

I bought a Frankenstein costume hat from Amazon the other day.

Tie-dyed baseball cap.
