I wear a flat cap while driving my convertible Saab. I'm 34 but sadly I have the need to protect my head from the sun/cold.

No other hats suit me, the flat cap is only just about OK!

Didn't think it'd be possible to see three of the worst things in one thread:

MX5's
Fedoras (the worst)
Flat caps

[Oldandslow]

Recently converted to a paperboy style flat cap. I'm too old to be wearing a baseball cap. Roof down in the MX5 messes up ones hair without appropriate head gear.

I own a flat cap, a Monjageo and can be frequently heard spouting "Brexit means Brexit" etc.

I'm 28 with a full head of hair.

I'm just into my 60th year, and sometimes wear a baseball cap (never in the car though) simply because the bigger peak keeps my specs dry!

Trust me people over 30 who drive cabrios wearing baseball caps look like complete bellends

Lets be honest, driving a convertible regardless of headwear makes most people look a bit of a git. The key is to accept that, stop giving a schist about it and just enjoy the drive.

What if it was a hard hat?

Corrected that for you. No one ever, anywhere, in the history of this planet, looked good in a baseball cap.

Either works for me

I have a flat cap but it doesn't really suit me. I want to be like Brian Johnson but I end up looking more like Slavic low grade mobster.

I wear a flat cap in the Morgan. But them I am of an age where it looks appropriate....

I also have these handy driving gloves with two red fingers for giving directions.

Unfortunately, the caravan dwelling, mathematical locksmith brigade - appear to have adopted this as their head coverage of choice (other than a balaclava when out robbing and thieving) around the North Kent area.

More likely to be the younger generation seen wearing one with a wife beater vest on - collecting your scrap from the end of the drive ....

My dad has a flat cap that he keeps in the car for when he has the roof down. He is bald, granted, but that doesn't stop him looking like a tragic tt. A fact I remind him of regularly when I see him wearing said hat!
