They're light, and sweat-absorbant, and you can get them in a number of styles. Mine is in the shape of a cowboy hat, for instance. They're relatively inexpensive, so if you lose one, or the cat pees on it, or it just gets too grody, you don't have to feel guilty about disposing of it.
No, a cowboy hat and kilt, just won't do.

Cowboy hat, jeans, cowboy boots - sure. Cowboy hat and kilt - nope, not for me!

The Tilly with a shorter brim looks pretty good, but they sure want a lot of $$$.

Their website says a bunch of amazing things about their product, but I'm not sure what to believe.
