I'd vote for a big-melon boonie too.

I have to buy the largest Tilley size hat, so if it says "one size fits all", it won't fit me.

I'm more of a wide brim guy. It keeps the sun out of my eyes, the rain off my glasses, and helps make my head look smaller <img src="/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

Here is my next one:

Tilley T3 in Olive

I'd be happy to buy a white baseball hat with the ETS logo. <img src="/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

I vote boonie and I also have a huge melon...I never tried on a baseball cap that fit my head....nope never. The only way a baseball cap fits is with the plastric adjustable thingy "open" (not attached) what does that make me? 8" ? 8 + ?

Oh yeah...."one size fits all" never fits me in ANY style of hat.

Regards,
Dreadnought

I notice that a lot of ETS people have supersized gourds. Could this be caused by the larger brains that some of us must have? <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

See my previous post. I believe it to be an evolutionary trait. We are predisposed to survive! <img src="/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Either that or it's a fat head syndrome from overuse of the brain...how can I make my kit smaller, lighter, more useful and I'd like to get that new piece of gear I saw the other day, and what else could I use as tinder and...
