One of the nicest summer hats is the Akubra Capricorn/Bondi http://hatsdirect.com/cgi-bin/products.cgi?view=71&returncat=Straw+Hats&returnpage=0 Until I left/got mine stolen recently it was a top hat for the following reasons: 1. Cool ventilated in summer (Sydney got up to 44.5C this year in town!). 2. Rugged (hemp fibre) 3. Quality (leather band that is not sweaty). 4. Shape . Maintains its shape despite pulling on/off and summer carelessness. I own/have owned 50s top Italian Milans but Graham's MTO Chinese Milan weave is pretty awesome
For those looking for a top rabbit Fedora I have one of these in Moonstone and its a superb hat: http://hatsdirect.com/cgi-bin/products.cgi?view=47&returncat=Fedora+Hats&returnpage=0
