I like the open sky, but since I shave my head I also need to escape from the sun's rays. My hat of choice is the beret (there is a type the farmers here used to wear called the "purillo" which is extremely small and close fitting which is ideal, but almost impossible to find nowadays. If anyone on list knows of where I can get a lifetime supply of purilli before they become completely unavailable, let me know), although wearing something that can be confused for military headgear is not always the best choice. Olive green jackets can get you into trouble too.
