Bucket Hats

[Motoboss]

I have a visit next week with a cardiovascular doctor for a little a plumbing work. It was suggested that I start using a hat for some coverage of  my ears and neck, anything other than a baseball type hat. At least during the summer months.

Soooooo……..ordered today.

Hello everyone, 
I've read this entire topic because I've been looking for a good Bucket Hat for a while and couldn't find one. So for the Europeans I found a good site, I recently moved to Berlin it's a German site that a friend recommended to me. For those living outside Europe, I don't think they deliver, but for those looking for something sober to make beautiful swings out of the sun, this Bucket Hat site hides a few treasures!!

I have a large white adidas sun hat and it is too much for golf… gets in the way lol.  But I recently got a white bucket hat and I think it works just fine.

I was going to start a new topic on hats, but then saw this one.

With summer nearly here, and with the weather already producing record temps for this time of year, I am thinking of getting another bucket hat.

The caviat is,  the brim needs to be wide and firm, not floppy.

I have 3 or 4 yard work hats already, but the rims are very floppy. And tend to block my vision when swinging a club.

I've seen players on tour wearing some different brands and really like the way they look. I'm not keen on spending $50+ for a hat though. 

Are there more affordable options like these hats out there? Or has these style hats have the market cornered , and can set the pricing because of that?

Some have already said it in her but Imperial Hats Cooling Sun Protection hat is the way to go. Yes it cost $55 but it is 100% worth paying for the quality. I think my golf group has tried every single brand of bucket hat for playing in the the summer heat in Houston and our group often tees off with 4 Imperial Cooling Sun-Protection hats. I've also had mine for a couple of years so they are built well and last for a while. 

Titleist makes a good firm brim one as well but they are more costly and Imperial has like 200 stock logos that you can add for free so more customizable

I actually have a couple of these in my cart on an online store right now. Trying to decide if I need one or two.  

Good to rotate in the hot and humid weather.  Get two.  I have six of them

Anybody wearing straw???….I use to wear a hybrid sombrero looking contraption on the border eons ago. Soaked in water during the round took the edge off on those 110° + heat index days. Head is to darn big for the regular bucket hats , so pretty much wearing adjustable baseball caps.
