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. 
  Keith I have this for fishing and stuff outside, it is nice.  ![[Linked Image]](https://trapperman.com/forum/attachments/usergals/2025/06/full-35779-261087-img_9713.jpeg)  
 
  
Stop over cooking your meat! It isn’t gamey, it’s over cooked! 
  Gordon Ramsey, maybe…

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.
