I'm a huge advocate for Wal Mart hats, as the price is almost nothing and they seem last forever. I'm just pumped when I can find one to fit me (I wear a 7 7/8 - 8 in a baseballl cap!)
The Buzz Kidders are not bad for the money. That 10 oz army duck is pretty rugged stuff. I've go 3 of them and enjoy them for casual wear. In fact, I'll be wearing my navy blue tomorrow. The salesperson you encountered was not very well informed. As you already know, these are traditional style and worn higher on the waist.
