I’m not sure ball caps count when it comes to being into hats. A Kangol is a good starting point, or just a great hat. I like a 507 Ventair. I have a Harris Tweed that is not a beginner hat. A few cowboy hats, but they are not out of place where I live as a general purpose outdoor hat. I never felt like I could pull off a porkpie, but I’ve had fedoras I liked before the neckbeard phenomenon happened.
