The trucker hat is an essential piece of kit here at ���ϳԹ���. We use them to keep the sun off our faces on the skin track and the sweat out of our eyes during post-work trail runs. Plus, they always go well with the de facto office uniform: a flannel and jeans. Here are eight of our favorites.

Built with a medium crown and curved bill,

We dig this hat’s . It’s built with a high crown and a flat brim that wants to stay that way.

Long known for its tubular neckwear, we’re stoked to hear about Buff’s first foray into hats. This version features loud fish graphics from artist Derek DeYoung and has a quick-drying polyester crown that makes it perfect for high-output activities. Available in January.

The husband-and-wife team behind sources their hats from a bulk supplier and employs stay-at-home moms in Los Angeles to hand stitch one-of-a-kind textiles on the crowns.
