Interested in seeing a motorsports hat that doesn't make you look like a dork. IMO, the only time a motorsports hat looks good is if you are also wearing a nomex suit.![]()

Okay, maybe my post is stupid, so flame away if you must.
I have a really small head, so it is hard to find a hat that fits well. I had a Williams F1 hat just like this (only it was the Juan Montoya one). By far the nicest cap I've ever owned: heavy, thick cloth that maintained its shape without an inner webbing, a long, thick, curved bill, and just great quality all around:
Since then I could never find a hat as nice as that one. I bought a Kubica Renault hat, only it is a lot flimsier and suffered the "trucker hat" look that required me to cut the embroidery backing to make it conform to my head better:
Anyone else buy a motorsports or car hat that looked so cool or fit so perfectly that they could never find another one as good at that one?

I used to feel the same way, then I lost my hair. Now I gotta put stuff on my head or it turns red. @#$%
I got a hat from the original Mazda Zoom Zoom Live event back in 2002 for the first gen Mazda6 launch. I did well enough in the autocross (not that well, really) to get a hat. I loved that hat, actually I still have it, but it's so worn out I don't wear it. It split at the corners where the brim meets the cap itself.
I got another free hat from the Scion FR-S drive events back in the spring just for showing up. That hat is really nice quality but the fabric is so heavy and so black that I can't wear it in the summer, too hot. More free promotional hats need to be made in grey or tan.![]()

Not necessarily my favorite, but I got one of these:
From our driver in Formula BMW back in 04 after he won one of the race at Indy during the F1 weekend...
I also like my Formula SAE hats..

I have this Repsol Honda hat that I got from Indianapolis motor speedway last year. I brought it to the race this August and got it signed by Jorge Lorenzo, the factory Yamaha rider. I can't find any pics of the hat online anywhere though.

My kid (5) loves the RedBull Team.
I've been trying to find him a kid-sized hat that has the Redbull Racing logo on it. The twist? I'm not spending $50. Anybody know of a place I can pick up a reasonably priced hat for him?
To answer the thread, I have a Sauber hat and a pile of Whiskey-Tango DIRT racin' hats.![]()

Not really motorsports, but grabbed for $2 at a swap meet brand new. They had some other brands as well, but I liked this the best and is super comfortable. No Im not a flatbiller, it was just brand new

I've given up the search. I like stuff on the front only.....the cramming advertisers on the sides and back ruin it for me. Too busy looking![]()

i don't see an English option, but if you buy Senna gear, do it through his store and the money goes to his charity/foundation.
