How To Wear, Style A Bucket Hat
A bucket hat also called a fisherman hat, Irish country hat or a session hat is a narrow elongated hat with a sloping brim.
These hats were first sighted among Irish fishermen to protect them from the rain and sun but they started making an incursion into pop culture in the 60s.
However, we have to thank hip-hop for its inclusion into modern urban wear. Big Bank Hank of the Sugar Hill gang is allegedly the first rapper to wear a bucket hat in 1979.
Also, 80s rap group Run-DMC had bucket hats as part of their headgears. L.L Cool J also rocked a bucket hat in the 80s.
Nowadays, these hats are associated with the cool retro look with celebrities rocking them effortlessly. American celebrities like Billie Eilish and Rihanna are fans of these hats.
