I do have a straw hat if I’m going to mow or garden in the hot sun. It’s all weather dependent.

I've been eyeballing the Tom Beckbe waxed field hat. (In tobacco of course)

Summer in South LA, MOWING the grass, Filson tin not insulated, going out Stetson Stockman, everyday, ball cap.
I take my hat off in most restaurants if I’m dining in but sometimes I don’t, usually if it’s cold out or I’m done cycling or hiking and I’m at a fairly casual place. I don’t have time in my life to care about what others do and I’ve got better things to do with my life than to judge others on their choices.
Additionally, since I’m bald and my dome gets cold, and I keep my place chilly, yeah I’m often wearing a beanie inside.

I'm balding too. That's the reason I wear a hat in the first place, but inside, I would expect my momma to slap me to the ground, ha ha.
You still live with your momma?
j/k
I see the way some people drive sometimes, and think, "their daddy didn't pop them upside the head enough, and it shows," ha ha.You still live with your momma?
I think a big current issue with restaurants is most don't have coat/hat hooks anymore. They just cram as many seats as they are permitted. This leaves the option of putting your coat/hat on a seat, lap or on your table. I think putting your hat on the table you are about to eat from is worse than just leaving the damn thing on your head.
That being said, I almost never wear a hat if I'm going out to eat to begin with.

In non-rural USA the notion of no hats indoors is completely outmoded. Truly, what the hell difference does it make?I never cease to be puzzled as to why so many Americans I see on TV wear hats whilst indoors.
I liken it to wearing wellington boots in bed
Jay.
And on top of that if a place does have a coat rack, and it’s busy, I’m not putting my stuff there. I don’t want my coat and hat to walk off without me.
Oh I’ve been in plenty of places in rural USA where people are wearing hats inside. Let’s not turn this into another boring rural vs urban debate.
I think I've eaten in 2 places in the past 10 years that had a coat check and they were events. The courtesy on the business side just doesn't exist anymore for the customer.
Stop making something out of nothing. I‘m the only one here in agreement with you but now you sound the same as these ornery geezers getting all bent because not everyone is from Mayberry.
Sorry you choose to feel that way! I’m sharing my observations of having lived in rural, suburban, and urban areas that seem to run counter to your experience. But the rural vs urban culture debate is tired and old lol.
As for who agrees with my opinions, meh lol. We’re all entitled to them regardless of whether we agree or not.
Jeez people "assumptions" much. This was brought up by Mawnansmiff, and I don't believe he lives in rural Welshland or Wales (kiddin'). It's just a manners thing, and apparently you guys are demonstrating that. No one had to actually admit to wearing a hat indoors. That was on ya'll. But, feel free to be whiney, ha ha.
All nice hats... keep the pics coming.

Oh, and before I retired from farming, I always had this Stetson with me in the fields. That was before I realized that I could buy them from the same company that makes them and sells them cheaper under a different brand. It also made for a great camping hat.
If there's no reasonable place to place your hat, the expectation of taking it off in the name of manners is lost. I find it more disrespectful to put a grubby had on the table or seat than to leave it on your head. Chicken and egg type of thing.
Stetson Tyler. I don’t think they are still made.
I've always loved the idea of this sort of hat, but I myself can't pull it off -- I look like I'm LARPing something.
I wear a ballcap in the sun, a trapper hat in the snow, and a bucket hat when shooting bows. I look good in the first and ridiculous in the latter two. And that's OK.
