I need a Hat!

[Gambrinus]

Man I burnt my head yesterday!   All I have are baseball caps and if your out in the sun long enough they leave a ring on your head.  Usually I would just wear one all summer and deal with it.  But I can no longer wear a hat at work and don't want to sport the tan line this year.  I need suggestions on a hat that doesn't cost a boat load.  I coach the kids baseball team and I'm going to be out in the sun a lot this summer. 

Thanks

  How about something with a touch of class and not the same old stuff everyone else wears . ? . ?

I don't wear hats often but when I do (in the winter usually) I wear a flat top Harley hat. Check out their website to see them.

I like those (actually have a similar one), but I was looking for a full brimmed hat like the pork pie style one in the picture aarrggh posted.  Probably something with a wider brim though.  I'm going to be using it mostly for mowing the grass, fishing, and standing on the baseball diamond.  Any other time I like to show off the shine

I've seen some nice Panama hats--brim & the extra benefit of straw for ventilation.  Question:  what sunblock were you using when you got burned and how long were you in the sun to get it? I'd like to find a really tough sunscreen so I could not have to think about hats.

Yeah those last couple of caps would really look cool coaching a baseball team ! ! 
NOT ! !
You would probably get laughed off the team as coach right on the spot by those baseball cap wearing kids.

Baseball requires a baseball cap.

Can't tell ya what to wear or not to wear, but as for me, I'm thinking one like this

Hey G,

If I'm out in the sun less than an hour I'll just slather on a thick amount of sunscreen.  If longer than that for a float trip or something, I'll wear a hat or bandana, but I'll always alternate it 30 on 30 off or something like that (with sunscreen) to keep from getting any weird tan lines.   It works just fine for me.

Yeah, the true moral of the story boys and girls is that you need to wear sunscreen.  But for absent minded dopes like me.  I need a hat.  It was only 55 out side and I was out there about an hour and a half at the most.  But it was bad enough that my head was thumping yesterday when I woke up.

Ouch,  .

I've made the sunscreen, spf 70,  part of the morning shave routine.  Hats--now that's something I can lose easily and hate to wear..  Maybe there ought to be a thread on sunscreens, the good, the bad, the pricey, etc.
