    Wide brim cowboy hats?

    Who wears wide brim straw cowboy hats outside for work or yardwork? How they do with sun protection and handle the high winds?

    I wear one almost 100% of the time when working outdoors. Wind can be a pain especially one from the back... side or frontal is not usually a problem. I like it because it keeps the sun off my forehead and ears/nose much better than a cap or boonie, etc.

      Yeah it looks funny, but not having sunburn on back, neck, ears and nose is worth it. Use mine for yard work and general work around the property.

              5” every day of the year. Straw in the summer and felt in the winter. Watch my dad cut the start of skin cancer off his face and head growing up. Not for me, won’t go smaller

                  I bought a 7” palm leaf from cavenders earlier in the year. It keeps the sun off pretty good. And it makes the neighbors stare pretty good too. Good hat for mowing

                  It doesn’t like the wind too much when I take a break and ride the dog around the neighborhood on the Ranger. Front flips straight up and makes the neighbors stare even worse....

                              I've been looking for one of those real wide brim hats and I can't find one anywhere.
