I never used to wear hats, but I picked up a tweed Goorin cadet this winter and really liked it. I've been thinking about a straw fedora for summer or something, but I don't know if I can pull it off.

What styles/brands are you all fond of?

I used to wear a tweed flatcap every day for about 2-3 years back in the early-mid 90s but now I can't stand the sight of em

I like the first one more - it seems it would be more versatile in spring and summer. Does anyone have any first hand experiences with that brand though? I'm eyeing one or two of their hats right now as well.

I have this one and I think it's really nice. Feels well made, the tweed is awesome, and the lining is pretty cool. Granted it's the only hat I own so I might not be the best judge of quality.

I've been wearing my tweed flat cap a lot lately. Great for spring, even if GS might think I'm a douche for wearing it

I like the way flatcaps look but I feel like they've been thoroughly co-opted by poorly dressed hipsters.
