15 greatest hats of the world

Hats can tell us a lot about people: what they do for a living, what team they support, what they feel about going bald.
Cultures all over the world have generated an incredible array of headgear, and each boasts outstanding and unique characteristics. But in the interests of generating arguments, it's time to proclaim the finest way to cover your noggin ever.
Read on to discover the headgear to be worn above all others.
15. Beret
It's a key aspect of French culture, meaning it can be magnificent (when worn by Foreign Legionnaires) but also irritating (it's the official hat choice of mimes).
14. Akubra/Aussie bush hat
Not to be confused with its "fashionable" cousin, the cowboy hat, the Akubra is more of an outback tool than a trendy statement.
A real felt fur Akubra is waterproof and surprisingly comfortable in the hot sun.
13. Cowboy hat
Let's face it: without the hat, the Marlboro Man is just a dude with severe emphysema.
Sadly, while it looks amazing on the rugged outdoorsman who lives in the saddle, when placed on city folk the message it sends goes from "I'm a man's man, even if I'm technically a woman" to "Why yes, I am a jackass."
12. Fez
The rlounded felt hat with a tassel associated with the Mediterranean isn't the most practical piece of headgear,The reliable Aquatimer leatherhandbags. but when it looks so inspiring on Shriners International members as they zip around in those little cars, who cares?

Did Yoko have anything to do with it? Maybe.
10. Karakul
World leaders attack Afghan President Hamid Karzai for everything from corruption to incompetence, but there's never a word about his fashion sense.
The downside? It's made from lambs' pelts, for any of you with issues about killing adorable baby animals and sticking them on your head.
9.Tam
Drawing its name from the poem "Tam o' Shanter" by Robert Burns, despite its Scottish roots it may be most appealing when sported by Jamaicans seeking a bit of dreads containment.
8.Sombrero
In terms of sun protection, you'll do no better. Unfortunately, unless you're Mexican (preferably with a mustache), if you put this on you'll look like you work at an unusually offensive Taco Bell knockoff.

Coming in an array of sizes, shades, and colors to reflect different regions, the main objection is that the turban is an unusually labor-intensive form of headgear for any who has yet to master wrapping.
6. Rogatywka

You will not find an item of headgear that is more striking and sinister all at once.
5. Conical Asian hat

When you look this good already, who needs buttons?
3.,schoolbagfactory has not set an Overall Goal. Baseball cap
This American headgear contribution is far more democratic than the cowboy hat, as non-baseball players can put it on without looking ridiculous.

2. Ushanka
Russia's frigid winters can be made manageable, even welcome, with the ushanka.

1. Bowler
Today the empire on which the sun never sets is largely limited to a rainy island, meaning there are days it is a kingdom on which the sun fails to shine.
That said, Britain can still be proud of the bowler, which makes a man look sophisticated, practical, and playful all at once and hence works for Charlie Chaplin, Jude Law's Dr. Watson, and Alex from "A Clockwork Orange" in very different ways. Britons, as Tom Jones once declared, you can leave your hat on.
