What hat for HOT weather?

. . .
But the question remains: Which had looks better?

Congratulations on a really good deal on the Tilley.

As to the looks: the balmoral looks the best, but for summer, the Tilley wins. (I always go for a balmoral though my wife prefers the glengarry, so I alternate in the fall, winter, and spring.) But the Tilley is what a summer hat is all about--shade! It'll keep you in the shade, absorb sweat, and it just looks as good as a fedora!

You're a real nice guy and all that, but you're not my type. Having said that, all the hats look great on you, so go with your mood that day.

Good choices all.
