Hats?

[Bugbear]

My preferred hat, kilted or no, in the summer is a good quality panama. They last for ever (well, ten or more years if you take a bit of care with your things), and take on a character of their own. Love 'em.

I've been reading up on panama hats. There seem to be a large number of fake panamas out there. There also seem to be extremely expencive real panama hats. This will take a good deal of sorting and research, but I am looking into the subject.
