keeping the sun off my head - show me your hats

How long have you been here? I grew up in and around Chicago. Moved away 22 years ago. Been here 15 years. I've become acclimated to the weather here. Pretty soon you'll probably be able to resist the urge to break out the shorts and tee's when the temp gets above 50! You may even develop a trucker tan. I would describe my coloring as fishbelly white, except for the parts that get sun. Almost a ginger.

The first Christmas we were here, I wore shorts and a windbreaker to the mall. Everyone else was wearing winter coats, lol.
Bought the house here in July last year, didn't officially move until the week before Christmas 2019. I'm pretty happy with the decision. My last day in Illinois was -1 outside.

That reminded me as a kid my grandparents always had hard white pith helmets they wore farming. It had a wider brim and not as tall. Kind of like this one:

I generally do baseball caps. But stopped buy them a few years ago because I started shaving my head. But I loved me some baseball style hats. I bet I gave half of them away and still have 20-30 different hats all WVU, Dallas Cowboys and Atlanta Braves.
 
A lesser man than myself might be tempted to reply "ghey!" but I would never do that
A man’s got to be confident in himself to where/wear/ware one of those.
