Four Fashionable Summer Hats for Men

Hats are soaring in popularity as so many celebrities are pulling off this look…and looking great with it. Here are some of the hats that you might want to add to your wardrobe this summer.

The Lightweight Flat Cap

Worn by actors (Matthew McConaughey), footballers (David Beckham), and even the aristocracy (HRH Prince Charles has been known to wear a flat cap), there has been a huge take-up in the sale of these hats in recent years. A fashion choice in spring and summer, flat caps are no longer a North Yorkshire stereotype and instead are enjoying somewhat of a fashion revival. Take a look around the streets of London and you will see flat cap wearers teaming this versatile accessory with suits, stubble, beards, scarves, cardigans, jackets and jeans…And whatever they are doing, it works! Buy flat caps in wool or tweed in winter and linen in summer.

The Straw Trilby

While the fedora has a wider brim, the trilby has a narrower brim and ribbon. It is a classic choice worn by famous names such as Johnny Depp and provides a chic, clean look to any outfit. If you like your summer outfit to be bang on trend, the straw trilby is a fantastic style choice…and if you are on the smaller size, it adds extra height too. A top tip is that the shorter you are, the smaller the brim you can get away with, as large brims will swamp your look. Wear the straw trilby with a work outfit, and in your time off you can dress it down slightly with jeans and a smart shirt.

The Wide Brimmed Panama 

This is an excellent look for summer as it is not only sleek, but it also keeps the sun’s rays at bay. Brad Pitt is one of the most famous wearers of the wide brimmed panama, and this type of hat is actually among the most popular summer styles. Wear it on the beach or about town and you’ll soon become a trend setter! This style of hat originated from Ecuador in the 1600s and is a great choice for holiday attire. Wear it with shorts and a polo top or a jacket with chinos in slightly breezier weather.

The Bucket Hat

This look doesn’t seem like it is going away anytime soon. The floppy hat comes in a variety of colours and materials, and it is easy to clean – you just stick it in the wash. Wear it with shorts and a T-shirt on the beach, or with jeans and a jacket. It is a practical choice of hat for the summer, especially if you travel quite a bit, as you can easily pack it in your suitcase when you jet off on your holidays. From high street bands, to designer names such as Gucci, you can buy this hat in all styles and budgets.
