[Healeys] Hats to You

[Patrick & Caroline Quinn]

Sort of reminds me of the western movies from the 1950s. The good guy always rode a white horse and wore a white hat, while the baddie rode a dark coloured horse and wore a black hat. Always easy to tell them apart when filmed from a distance and when one chased the other and they fell off their horses the hats of at least one of them would stay on so that you could tell who was who.

Such simple times!

How about a "Crocodile" Dundee hat like Paul Hogan wore in the Crocodile Dundee movies. With that hat I don't think the chin strap will show that much. And if it does you will look like an action kind of guy that needs the strap to keep your hat on. LOL

G’day
 
I would like to gather together some opinions or choices of what headwear people use while driving their Austin-Healeys.
 
In my 45 years of Austin-Healey ownership I have never been a hat person. However I do like Panama hats, but they would blow away in five minutes and end up in Columbia. I sometimes wear one with the Healey Duncan but that’s a different kettle of fish.
 
Personally I don’t like baseball style caps as they don’t keep the sun off the ears or the back of the head. A floppy hat with a string under the chin is borderline dorky.
 
So just what do people wear to protect you from the sun and stop your skins looking like a cooked lobster?
