Don’t let your headwear limit your look. Consider some of these men’s statement hats that will work with your style—and take it to the next level.

You may have some quality caps that give your look polish, but you’ve barely considered the possibilities. Designers are showing fashion-forward headgear that may look over-the-top until you try them on. Okay, Givenchy’s cowboy hat might not be for you. With a little experimentation, though, you’ll surprise yourself with all the alternative styles you can wear. There are plenty of men’s statement hats that will work with your style, and these are a good place to start.  

Fedoras

Fedoras always look fresh with dressed-up looks, especially if you’re game to try Saint Laurent’s version in rabbit felt. Local hip-hop legend D-Nice is a fan of fedoras and elevates his style with models from Nick Fouquet and Worth and Worth. He wears them with statement sweatshirts and tees—and more than a little swagger.

Baseball Caps

Yes, you already have a few of these, including some high-end versions, and you know how to style them. But you can up the ante by experimenting with different materials, colors, and textures. Try turquoise alligator skin, lime ostrich—whatever speaks to you. As long as you keep it simple, this mix of high and low fashion will go with anything.

Bucket Hats

A signature Burberry bucket hat may run the risk of dominating your outfit, but Prada has some darker, solid versions that will fit in with your aesthetic effortlessly. Louis Vuitton’s interpretation is in faded patchwork denim, which will take you into any season. It’s still tough to take buckets seriously, though, so don’t wear them when you dress up.

Berets

The world received a clear reminder of just how cool a beret could look with appearances on Michael Jordan in the documentary, “The Last Dance.” Gucci is way ahead of you with a navy felt version more French in feel. You can go retro with Samuel L. Jackson’s classic cool or set the trend here. The record shows that it’s at home everywhere from the basketball court to the Oscars, so wear it fearlessly.

With a little confidence, any category of men’s hats will work with your style. The point of a statement hat isn’t to change your look. It’s to take what you already wear to the next level.
