Walking hats like The Kangol Gaffer are just that - hats that walk. By themselves. Okay, that's not even true. Men's hats such as The Jonathan Richard Original Irish Walker, for example, actually got their start in the British Isles, where shepherds and other great walkers sought [more]

sun protection as well as cover from inclement weather. You can actually feel the heft of the Irish wool used by Ireland's Jonathan Richard to make both The Original and his sturdy Dubliner walking hats. As everyone knows, Borsalino of Italy also makes beautiful hats - and their wool blend Calabria Rex, offered in a light brown check, is certainly no exception.
If you've been walking bareheaded, we're all embarrassed for you but it's not too late to change. The Adriatic 100% wool walking hat from Christys' Italian Collection is offered in your choice of two great herringbones (charcoal or olive) and might be just the rex to start your jaunts. If you prefer leather, The Scala Brad is a classic shape in soft, supple lambskin, while Scala's rendition of The Donovan, a safari-style walking hat in rugged, antiqued leather, is one of my all-time favorites. If you're really picky about the hat you don as you prepare to perambulate (and I can't say that I blame you!), you may wish to cast your eye upon The Norberg of Sweden, made of rich elk leather with dropdown earflaps for the comfort of your lobes or the Wigens cotton patchwork fishing hat in the traditional bucket shape. Each authentic to the situation at hand. When casting about for an exclusive men's hat, a truly one-of-a-kind walking hat, The Roland is offered only at HartfordYork.com, and nowhere else. I chose the great warm weather plaid linen fabric and asked Wigens to make a bucket hat from it. The result is The Roland, with a paisley lining and perfect fit.
Everyone walks. Might as well clap on a fedora walking hat in cotton-lined linen and take the air in style.
