Straw-hats - article about Straw-hats

Baseball hats seem to be all the rage in this country for summer sun protection, but for my money straw hats are the way to go. The straw hat is a uniquely functional piece of clothing. Function is, after all, what summer is all about. The trick with summer clothes is to strike the right balance between flattering, minimal clothing, and adequate sun protection. After all, you don't want to have to be slathering on sun block every 10 minutes. Nothing can ruin your summer day like being covered in greasy lotion. This is where hats come in handy. A cowboy hat, however, is a little bit too hot for the summer even though it provides enough protection. A baseball cap, on the other hand, does not provide nearly enough protection even though it isn't too heavy. A straw sun hat will strike the right balance between the two, fully shading your head along with your ears and neck, while at the same time letting some ventilation reach your head.

Of course, women have the most options for straw hats. A women can wear either a man's hat or a more ornamental and decorative woman's hat. Some of them can get so finely made and adorably painted that it is hard to remember that they are made out of straw at all. It is nice to know that, in this age of mass manufacturing, some traditions haven't lost anything. Hat making is as fine a craft as ever, although it can be a little bit harder to find the perfect hat than before. Still, if you're willing to take the time to do research, you can find something that will keep you in perfect comfort while looking quite fashionable.
