I'm going to revive this neglected thread from long ago. Any thoughts on good hats for the upcoming summer season, especially in reasonably hot climates? (I'm in New York) I have a couple of decent plain-ish, monochrome baseball hats already but given my receding hairline and easily burned skin, I'm always looking for more ideas.

mmm I like Borsalino's granted I've never felt the need to spend that much money on a hat but they're damned sexy (mostly animal felt but have straw too)

Well they're not $1400... more like $200-$800 with the straws generally being on the lower end
