I am interested in finding out what the "rabble" feel about wide brim hats.

After having the tops of my ears treated for the results of years of sun damage and having a skin cancer removed from my face, maybe a beret, tam, Glengarry, and/or Balmoral might not be the best choice for protection. They do not give great protection except to the top of the head.

I am going brimmed from now on. Just need to do a wee work in finding the right "lid"
