I wear a Tilley with mine. IMHO it's a great look.

Here is a good hat from 5.11 that I wear.





It’s widely known that 5.11 Tactical Series® delivers functionally innovative gear from head to toe. So technically, that makes the Boonie Hat the “head,” while boots comprise the “toe.” This spring, 5.11 Tactical introduced a new color – coyote – to commemorate the 30th Anniversary of the 5.11 Tactical Pant. The color proved so popular, 5.11 also added a Boonie Hat, boots and socks in coyote. Popular with outdoor enthusiasts, the packable, traditionally styled Boonie Hat has a slightly ramped crown and a 2-1/4” brim. It’s constructed of the same 8.5-oz., 100% preshrunk cotton canvas as 5.11’s Tactical Pants for extra durability. The hat features vents on each side to help keep you cool, a lanyard for stability and easy attachment to bag or belt, and segmented webbing to easily affix camouflage. The Boonie now comes in three colors: coyote, TDU green and digital woodland, in sizes M, L and new XL. You’ll want at least one of each.

I know I'm inviting scorn by asking this question, but here goes: Does anyone know of a source for hats in the style of those Tilleys for about half the price? I like the look and I'm craving sun protection more as I age, but I can't justify that price.

Finding them is easy, but then you have to choose what style

I've had this Eddie Bauer open weave sun helmet for over twenty years! (Perfect for summer kilted wear.) The truck the same amount of time. Talbot approves of both.
