That pic brings a whole new level to "Get off my lawn" !
Nice ... I have an old Stetson Straw I use to use when cutting the lawn with that same cattleman brim. If it ever gets soft ... a little fabric stiffener brings it right back ... sprays on opaque but drys clear. Its used for stiffening drapes ... you can get it at any fabric store. 
I take my hat off, usually, when I get to the table ... but if I have to stand by the door waiting to be seated I prefer to avoid the draft and stay warm.
You can order them online for about $40 but I got mine at Marshall's and TJ Maxx at the end of the season for about $12.00 ... Check the label to make sure you get at least 10% wool if they don't have the Merino wool ones. And ... you have to hunt for them. Its hit or miss so keep looking. Most of them are acrylic which I avoid. and ... they're washable.
Some folks were raised with social graces that dates back
s of years. It just happens that many rural folks maintain those modes of respect that are now thought outdated or outmoded. Personally, I was always raised to take my hat off inside & formally the presence of a lady (when & where you find them).

I don't see where rural has anything to do with this. I do not live in a rural area. Neither does the Welshman that brought it up.Some folks were raised with social graces that dates back
Men wearing hats and gloves indoors is considered bad manners. Women on the other hand are supposedDarn beautiful pipe, what is it
I don’t around apologizing all over the place as I’m not personally easily offended…but if you read my comment I certainly didn’t mean to offend anyone by mentioning the term “rural”…to me it doesn’t have any type of negative connotation at all. My response was referenced of a comment I believe comparing both urban to rural behaviors. In addition, I don’t find manners are strictly relatable to geographic region of the country either…well some are.
So, if you’re offended unintentionally by my response…MEA CULPA! …and yes hats are cool.

Access denied.Back to cool hats +1 !
I'm looking for something like this in tan:
Men's Lightweight Crusher Sun Cape Hat | Duluth Trading Company
Head off heat and block a burn with the uncrushable summer hat equipped with a stowable sun cape.
I’ve lived in all 3 environments as well. Of course I was generalizing, but in general it is my experience in the suburbs and the city that is not even a sentiment in most people’s mind in these locales. They aren’t doing it as a rude gesture.

Hell no, this seems like something nobody should do IMO, but perhaps I am being too old-fashioned
