Jerry nice to have you! It is hard to answer what type of hat because it depends on body and facial dementions to some extent. If you are a bigger guy I would shy away from the smaller brims. I am a bigger guy and my first brim was only around 1 1/5 inches and I thought it looked silly on me. After talking with multiple people on here I found that the reason for being uncomfortable in my hats was that I need a bigger one! I have now found my wheel-house for brim size to be between 2 1/4 to 2 1/2. Also I have flirted with other styles like porkpies and found that they were hard to find in the right dementions for my tastes. Becoming a hat wearer/lover is really trial and error. I am sure Mr. Fawcett and other pros on here can give you great advice on hat types if they had a photo. I hope you enjoy the ride because it is sure fun! I have been into proper hats for around two years now and trust me every day is a new learning experience. Also what hat size are you? Depending on your size hats can be easily aquired on ebay.
