The main features were the straw construction--let's the air flow and the larger, all-around coverage from the sun. I can't speak to the 10 gallon type thing because he never wore one of those. For Sundays and church, he always wore his dress cowboy hat, which varied from felt to leather and even a nicely decorated straw hat. My grandfather, also a rancher, wore a cowboy hat as well. Beat-up old thing, but he almost always had one. He started out raising pigs and actually RODE a pig to herd the other pigs. I'm really not sure there is a hat to help that situation, but a man's got to do, what a man has to do.Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11234907275906877802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5783946470360579823.post-53755871570266922362015-04-27T09:31:32.159-05:002015-04-27T09:31:32.159-05:00Fedoras are just flat-out sexy.

Trust me, I grew up in the era when my dad (a carpenter, just so you don't think I'm from some high-falutin' banking family or something) wore them daily. Rowr. He looked like Boston Blackie. Does that date me or what??? Anyway - all the guys should wear fedoras. Like, I believe many men think women should always wear those nylons with the seam up the back.

I also have a fedora. I wear the ivy caps (one or the other) daily. The fedora is for special dress-up occasions. So, my recommendation is the fedora for special events, a bowler if you are doing steampunk cosplay, and an ivy cap (what my wife called a mofo hat) for daily wear. Or, you could join the Masons, get into the Scottish Rite, the Shrine, the Grotto, the Tall Cedars of Lebanon, and other appendent bodies, each of which have fancy headgear (she calls them funny hats).
