My favorite hat in summer is panama
![]() The art of wearing panama hat. Some panamas, and speacially strawhats, and seagrasshats, needs a sip of water now and then, then they last longer. Moisturizing it carefully under the shower may soften up the straws, so they not crack or breakes. And when they do, after some seasons use, they often does, wooden glue is the thing to use. Also when it shows any cracks in the straws, wooden glue. On extra hot days, it may be very comfortable to moist the hat before going out... It it sof course stictcly forbidden to touch anybodys straw hat. If anybody touches my hat, I smack them, sometimes in the face. That could be an issue in younger days, but not now. I consider it an offense and a violation to touch others hat when on. Last edited by Savage; Thursday, May 11th, 2006 at 14:51. |

Almost never wear a hat except maybe a baseball cap once or twice a year.

Not very often, but well, I do sometimes... Very seldom, though.
Sometimes something like this (just for the jest): ![]() I also have a sombrero, but I don't use it very often as people tend to stare at me with a strange look in their faces... ![]() Or eventually a baseball cap, as Milesbian, once or twice a year. |

) who said that wearing a hat too often can make you bald.Sounds a bit like an Old Wives Tale, but they seem to give it some credit. Enough for me to refrain from hat-wearing ![]()

The only time I wear a hat is when I'm shooting and need to be able to see, and I wear a helmet when racing (cars).
Behold my shooting hat! |

Sometimes, mainly for protection. In winter I wear something along these lines:
