What's a good, cheap, washable hat for overly Caucasian people? Ball caps aren't cutting it for me. If I'm outside during the day I'm getting sunburnt.

I'm a dark caucasian so it's more about shade for eyes than anything but a standard usgi boonie works well for me if not wearing my stetson.

I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

I just ordered a Ronnie Van Zant beaver felt w/ rattlesnake band, but not sure if I'll be able to pull it off or not.

Stop over cooking your meat! It isn’t gamey, it’s over cooked!

Straw hats are the best I've found.

I've used straw hats in the past. They get pretty rank, pretty quickly. I found them overly warm too. In a vented straw hat, I get little spots of sunburn. Can you clean a straw hat? If so, how?

Something like Catch posted might work, but it probably needs a wider rim. I have a huge head. I probably should cover my neck too, but it wouldn't be very comfortable.

I'm designed to live a lot further North, in a not sunny area. I've always burned easily. It's gotten worse as I've gotten older. When I was young, I mostly stayed in the woods when outside. Now working on plants in full sun cooks me. I even get sunburned under a pop up awning somehow. I wouldn't think indirect sunlight can burn me, but it does.

I turn red, peel, turn white again and burn again. I almost don't tan at all.
